The review

On paper, Asad Zanzibar Limited Edition is a reasonable bet if you want Invictus Parfum for less.

Lattafa 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.

At $32 per 100ml it costs 70% less than Invictus Parfum — the cheapest of 2 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.

Value7.8
Evidence6.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Lattafa publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on grapefruit and bergamot, turns to cardamom, cedar and bay leaf, and settles into amberwood, patchouli and vetiver. That is the brief Asad Zanzibar Limited Edition is working from.

Top

  • grapefruit
  • bergamot

Heart

  • cardamom
  • cedar
  • bay leaf

Base

  • amberwood
  • patchouli
  • vetiver
Grapefruit and cardamom over amberwood, a denser, more mature Invictus.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 3 twins of Paco Rabanne Invictus Parfum we can price, Asad Zanzibar Limited Edition is the cheapest per 100ml.

  1. 01 Lattafa Asad Zanzibar Limited Edition $32/100ml
  2. 02 HK Perfumes Imperial Wood $64/100ml
  3. 03 The Dua Brand Error 431 $33
