This is my third review on Antonio Banderas King of Seduction Absolute because it is very different on your skin. It is and a scent that changes the questions when you figures out the answers. For the longest time I thought it wasn’t an Invictus clone because it was darker than Invictus is. I didn’t figure out King of Seduction until a later Invictus flanker, Invictus Intense. To me, this is stronger and darker than the original like Invictus Intense is.
The performance is weird and inconsistent with King of Seduction Absolute. It can last anywhere from 6 to maybe 9 hours on my skin. This is about a workday, this is compared to Invictus’ damn near beast mode of 10+ hours. Projection is nice but it isn’t Invictus’ beast mode at all lasting about two hours moderately. What is consistent is that this works between spring and even fall both day and night though depending
To me, the scent of King of Seduction Absolute is much more stronger on the seas scent. Not that it’s a bad thing, but it is just a different scent that if you were expecting Invictus. Instead it has some grapefruit upon opening but has pomelo and almond while missing is Invictus’ bayleaf. The mid is HEAVY with the sea water scent with some salt and lavender. The base is mostly leather with a slight vetiver. To me, the mid and base is what gives me the Invictus Intense feel in King of Seduction Absolute.
I have to give King of Seduction Absolute credit for being a very different scent to the Invictus dupes. There have been a lot to come out around the time of Absolute whether what it is a flanker of King of Seduction, Azarro Wanted Montblanc Legend Spirit, Jimmy Choo Man Intense, Coach for Men, etc. We can all think of many Invictus dupes. This does enough to some what stand out in the pack, even if performance is a problem.
For me the performance issues and how Antonio Banderas King of Seduction Absolute is inconsistent is its problem in this overall great scent. I want to rate it 8.5 out of 10 but due to the performance not wanting to dial in, I got to go 8.2 out of 10. I still love King of Seduction Absolute and it stands out to King of Seduction and is a flanker to that with little related to the grandfather flanker (Blue Seduction) but for what it does, there are better options in the Invictus genre out there and that would be the only reason I would not get King of Seduction Absolute again.

********************************
Strong & Good performance
********************************
I have every single Antonio Seduction:
♥ Blue Seduction ♥, smell the best but last barely 1 hour
♥ Seduction in Black♥, sweeter Blue Seduction that last 3hrs
♥ King of Seduction♥ = Blue Seduction + INVICTUS, smells great, project good, last 4 hours. My favorite of the entire Seduction line
♥ King of Seduction ABSLUTE ♥ has NO similarity to any Blue Seduction. It is a straight PB INVICTUS clone but less sweet. Its has very good Projection, good Silage, with a very good 5~6 hours longevity. The longest of the Seduction I’ve owned.
***********************************
Best Invictus Clone, but less sweet
***********************************
Do not smell like INVICTUS Intense
Smell like INVICTUS (original) but less sweet
Share 2016 INVICTUS AQUA Vibe, but less aquatic.
I would say KoS Absolute lies somewhere between 2016 Invictus Aqua and 2015 Invictus original.

I have the original Invictus, Aqua & Intense.
This a nice similar scent.
But it’s its own thing.
If you want to impress anyone with this scent…
You must spray it on yourself within five minutes of meeting them.
After a half hour…this is just above the skin.
The projection on this isn’t great(A foot away from you at best), but for the price.
You can reapply whenever needed, just carry a Travel Atomizer with you.
This is a mature masculine scent, sweet, a bit bitter with an aquatic feel.
But if someone is in your personal space aka your scent bubble…You’ll get a puzzled look and a question of what you’re wearing and the compliment.
It’s Invictus Aqua-ish…which is perfect right now for NYC hot 80 plus degree weather.
Green, Aquatic, lite scents are a must right now.
Riding the subway to work…SMH.
You need a buffer against other people body odor, that’s making pick up skills…like holding your breath for ten minutes. Because the funk is real…sad to say.
I used nine sprays…both wrist, behind my ears, back & front of my neck, chest, front and back of my shirt.
Will I buy this again?…Yes.

This has nothing in common with Invictus. OK now, I’m a bit biased cause I love leathery fragrances and this one really clicked with me. Actually I find AB fragrances clicking with me (ok 2 of them actually, this one and Mediterraneo)So the smell is pretty nice, goes for almost all seasons and occasions. It’s a cheapie but I really do think that it is a bang for the buck. It has pretty decent longevity, I sprayed myself at about 3PM, now it is 2AM and if I rub my neck I can smell it on my hand. Projectionwise, it projects for 2 to 3 hours. And btw I burn fragrances pretty fast so I think that the performance is pretty much ok

It’s a very pleasant masculine scent with a very harsh and loud opening. After half an hour or so it calms down until the end, about 3-4 hours later. Moderate projection and longevity. I like it but it’s not enough to buy a bottle.
I didn’t found it like Invictus which I hate and it’s completely different from Bleu de Chanel edt. I have both.
Ruireerultino – :
This actually lasts very long, over 10hrs. I like the opening.
qwerty131 – :
what a Gem!! This Smells very very manly.
compliments Factor: amaaaaazing.
Nike64 – :
Very popular where i live-every 2nd teenager smells like this. Pleasant scent but nothing special-for me blue seduction is better.
n2dnhg – :
King of Seduction Absolute – Fierce – Mont Blanc Legend – Bentley Azure – Davidoff Champion, all with similar sharp edgy vibe.
and96715426 – :
The smell is great!, really masculine. Is great for office or gym. The scent is kind of unique
It does not remind me to invictus. It reminds me to ambercrombie fierce. And like this one more than that one.
Cons: too much alcohol . They need to turnit it down a little
– longevity is decent
I only paid 15us so for the price is great
Niko012 – :
