Code Red, from British high street retailers Next, is a delightful marine fragrance, opening with sweet grapefruit that actually sticks around for much of its duration, with a heart of jasmine and bay leaf. The scent is remarkably similar to Invictus by Paco Rabanne, and obviously Code Red is much cheaper in price. The performance here is about average, so just don't expect it to be as potent as Invictus in terms of projection. However, I simply sometimes apply a few more sprays than usual with Code Red in order to achieve decent sillage. The box and bottle design seems to have changed over the years but the scent itself is the same.
