The Paco Rabanne Invictus Aftershave Lotion is designed for daily use following your shaving routine. Its primary function is to soothe the skin and provide a pleasant, long-lasting aroma.
After shaving, rinse your face with cool water to close pores.
Pat your skin dry with a clean towel.
Dispense a small amount (a few drops) of the aftershave lotion into your palm.
Gently pat and massage the lotion onto your shaved areas, such as your face and neck. Avoid rubbing vigorously.
Upon application, you'll immediately notice the refreshing top notes of Sea Notes, Grapefruit, and Mandarin Orange. As the lotion settles, the heart notes of Bay Leaf and Jasmine emerge, adding a refined, aromatic depth. Finally, the base notes of Ambergris, Guaiac Wood, Oakmoss, and Patchouli provide a warm, masculine foundation that lingers subtly for several hours.
Skin Comfort: Helps reduce common post-shave irritation, redness, and razor burn.
Subtle Fragrance: Provides a lighter scent presence than an Eau de Toilette, making it ideal for professional settings or for those who prefer a less intense fragrance.
Layering: For a more pronounced and enduring scent, consider layering with the Paco Rabanne Invictus Eau de Toilette or Deodorant Stick.
Apply the aftershave lotion immediately after shaving to maximize its soothing benefits and integrate the fragrance into your grooming routine. It's versatile enough for both morning and evening use.
Using your Paco Rabanne Invictus Aftershave Lotion is straightforward:
Unscrew the cap of the bottle.
Tip the bottle gently to dispense a small amount of lotion into your hand.
Replace the cap securely after each use to prevent evaporation and maintain freshness.
Age Group: This product is formulated for adult males.
Skin Types: Generally suitable for most skin types. However, if you have particularly sensitive skin, it is recommended to perform a patch test on a small, inconspicuous area (e.g., behind the ear or on the inner forearm) before full application.
Fragrance Layering: The aftershave lotion is designed to complement other products in the Paco Rabanne Invictus line, such as Eau de Toilette and Deodorant, for a consistent scent profile.
Storage: Store the bottle in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. This helps preserve the integrity of the fragrance and the lotion's soothing properties.
Cap Security: Always ensure the cap is tightly closed when not in use to prevent leakage and reduce exposure to air, which can diminish the scent over time.
Handling: Handle the bottle with care to avoid dropping, which could damage the container or dispenser.
