Best Invictus Parfum by Rabanne Alternatives & Similar Perfumes

Bon Parfumeur add another tome on their shelf of fresh crisp woody genre.

702 is a mix of rich incense balanced with earthy bitter sweet freshness of lavender.

PS: Bon Parfumeur chose a magnificent quality of lavender from the South of France, produced by IFF-LMR. This supreme olfactory quality makes all the difference.

It is the energy of myth and the elegance of the garden that inspire a refined and vigorous essence.

Bergamot and juniper berries become full-bodied on a carpet of incense, fading into the persistent fascination of oriental wood.

The presence of a marble Hercules in the garden of the perfumer’s house, triumph of courage and immortality, elevates to myth the creations of Agatho and the Giardinodiercole becomes a perfume.

I was inspired while visiting Kew Gardens in London in May. Every May there are hundreds of blooming magnolia trees in different sorts, sizes, scents and colours. Usually it is a very rainy season and my inspiration was to create a scent of the water and rain on magnolia trees.  

The symbol of this modern perfume is an American modern dance pioneer Ruth St. Denis. She is not only a very talented performer, but also very feminine. 

Divine Dancer is an ethereal, watercoloured, light, fresh, feminine floral perfume. It is modern and vivacious fruity floral scent .

The Divine Dancer perfume is dedicated to one of the first American modern dance and ballet performers Ruth St. Denis.

Her vibrant and spirited art of dance, influenced by the East and South Asia, her divine body move and incredible costumes made Ruth St. Denis a worldwide well known star. Her body projects as Temple of femininity. 

When the dancer emerged from the darkness of the stage, her presence was immediately captivating, the air suddenly fragrant with her appearance. Adorned in jewels from head to toe, radiant in a special gold sari, her hair crowned in jasmine, she is an embodiment of divine feminine, mirroring the images of goddesses of Lakshmi and Saraswati but with the talented Ruth St. Denis touch of modern dance and ballet movement.

Place: Paris
Champagne in crystal flutes, jasmine vines and iris roots, limbs tangled and lipstick smudged, a poet and a muse, an ocean of violets in bloom. “Love is reciprocal torture,” breathed through a cloud of powder.

Like late summer afternoon in a garden, when light, air and nectar merge into one another. May rose is given extra oomph with the fruity fullness of pear and cassis blossom. Sandalwood and ambrette suggest bare, kissed skin.

This deep and dark aquatic perfume takes you from the salty warmth of beach pebbles straight into the whispering waves, and eventually down to the inky fathoms inhabited by giant squids. Feel the caress of tentacles of incense — initially menacing, ultimately comforting.

Madrigal harks back to Molinard's masculin fragrances of the 1930s. Citrusy and aromatic with notes of lemon and lavender, With woody tones Madrigal is a step away from sunny Provence, towards the chic French autumn. A multitude of cosy and enveloping moments created with notes of incense, cedar and patchouli.

The heightened version of Angel Dust, Fugazzi’s epic symphony of cashmeran and amber. Here, an overdose of cashmeran and amber gives the feeling of swimming through velvet. At 50% perfume oil, Angel Dust extrait is a muffled cry of ecstasy.
