carbon date format not returning correct diffInDays

My date looks like this: 28/01/2022.

I'd like to find out difference in years,months,days from now() time.

I tried:

1) Not working, because it says my date is illegal format.

\Carbon\Carbon::now()->diffInYears(\Carbon\Carbon::parse($date))

2) This gives me huge number. something like 878 when it should be just 24.

$dateObject = \Carbon\Carbon::createFromFormat('d/m/Y', $date);
return \Carbon\Carbon::now()->diffInDays($dateObject);

Any ideas you can help me?
