CakePHP 3 - Catch invalidargument email -> to exception

How can we catch an invalid email exception? Cake throws and invalidargumentexception. 

Invalid email: "bassdsd.cs#adcdc.com"InvalidArgumentException

This does not work, the catch is not reached:

$toEmailAddress = "bassdsd.cs#adcdc.com";

$email = new Email('default');

try
{
    $email->to($toEmailAddress); 
}
catch(InvalidArgumentException $ex)
{
   // error
}
