Paco Rabanne Invictus Eau de Toilette 200ml Spray Eye Contour Cream and a touch of jasmine

and a touch of jasmine — the kind of warm floral that doesn't read as strictly feminine

honeyed base that smells less of perfume and more of skin that's been sitting in the sun

Two or three sprays in the morning sit close to the skin — more of a skin scent than a statement

spray it morning and midday without overpowering

almost tart opening — then the balm breaks down makeup and the day without tugging

Paco Rabanne Invictus Eau de Toilette 200ml Spray Eye Contour Cream and a touch of jasmineInvictus opens with grapefruit and ambroxan that clean, almost salty mineral note that smells of skin rather than cologne. The base is warm amber and guaiac wood, so it sits somewhere between sports fragrance and actual depth. Men's EDT, 200ml. Four to five hours from skin, longer on clothes. Two sprays is enough; it doesn't apologise for itself and doesn't need to shout.
