In plain words

The main accords of Invictus Elixir are vanilla and woody. It opens with Mineral Notes and Salt, reveals Coconut and Lavender at its heart, and dries down to Vanilla Caviar and Benzoin. It lasts very long and projects strongly; people reach for it in spring and autumn, day or night.
