Antaeus by Chanel is a leather eau de toilette with warm and powerful accords, embodying allure and strength. Inspired by ancient mythology, it symbolizes the symbiosis of sensual femininity and dynamic masculinity. Named after Antaeus, the son of the Greek gods Gaia and Poseidon, this elegant and luxurious fragrance is endowed with mighty power and generosity. Released in the 1980s, it vividly expresses the style of men from that era, with unique personas and steely character. Antaeus exudes nobility, chic, elegance, and respectability.
This fragrance composition, belonging to the chypre and woody family, begins to unfold with notes of coriander, lemon, bergamot, lime, myrrh, and clary sage. Following this introduction, shades of jasmine, rose, thyme, and Tuscan basil make their presence known, smoothly transitioning into a base where French labdanum intertwines with patchouli leaves, green oakmoss, and castoreum.

Reviews about Chanel Antaeus
The scent of expensive suede items. A very worthy and iconic fragrance. Despite various reformulations of the scent, Antey has preserved its DNA. There is something to compare it with. I have the first release. Strength and allure, an erotic component, that's what Antey is all about. Thank you Make.up for reasonable prices! I highly recommend this fragrance.
I was really disappointed with the store, and this is the first time in 5 years. The lid was broken. When I picked it up at the post office, I simply checked if the ordered item was there. When I got home and opened the box, everything spilled out. The slate was slightly detached. It didn't fall from me. It ruined my impression and mood.
I got it for my collection, wanted to reminisce about my childhood when my grandfather used them. The smell is really cool, warm and pleasant, incredible, as if wrapped in a blanket, but not as intense as it used to be. It doesn't scream like today's fragrances, it is refined and mature, it doesn't need to prove anything to anyone... it's a classic.
It's not very long-lasting and doesn't have a strong trail. I applied it on myself with 12 sprays, and after 3 hours, I can barely feel it. Just don't tell me about aging, alcohol content, that it's an EDT, etc., if someone has such a desire. I know this fragrance, I know its longevity.
I give the scent 5 stars, even though it's not long-lasting, but I rate the store's service 1 star. I won't be placing any more orders with you. Thank you for everything.
The fragrance hasn't had time to settle after delivery, so taking into account the distinct smell of alcohol and the (still) slight longevity, we can note the following: initially, there is a very sharp and powerful castoreum, which subsides after about 15-20 minutes, and beautiful citrus, herbs, and jasmine start to emerge; rose in the distant background. Yes, the perfume is very masculine. However, it can also be easily imagined on a lady, especially if she likes Mad Madame by Juliette has a gun (their castoreum sounds almost identical).
Old school, true art of perfumery, nothing else captivates after it.
Yes, this is a masterpiece that stands the test of time, it's like a fine cognac. I bought it based on the reviews and description, but it took me a long time to make the decision to purchase. I bought it in August when it was hot, even though many recommend it for autumn and winter. When I applied it to my wrist, from the first notes, I instantly recognized it from my childhood. It's a very worthy fragrance, long-lasting, and even though mine is a tester, it still has good sillage. Simply the king of fragrances, and I have multiple CHANEL bottles in my collection and use. Yes, it's the king among all CHANEL fragrances, I recommend it to everyone, you won't regret it. And the store, as always, is at the highest level. A special thank you to you. Grateful and loyal customer.
This is a very worthy and extraordinary vintage scent.
