The review
Worth a try. That is where Imperial Wood lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Invictus Parfum.
HK Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Invictus Parfum's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.
At $64 per 100ml it costs 39% less than Invictus Parfum — the cheapest of 1 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
