Chanel Antaeus EDT 100ml For Men

I’ve often gone through many bottles of scent before settled on something for sure. Often this means much sampling, wearing in different settings, weather and so on. It takes a while for me to like a scent but alas we often get the kick when we least expect it and from the least obvious person or association.

It was the concept brought about by “Ambra” of Acqua di Parma’s signle note collection that made me wonder “rose and leather – really?”. I hated the AdP for its content of norlimbanol but the idea stuck in my head that this had been thought of before. Reading a blog later that month dawned on me that this was indeed a case of deja vu – Antaeus!

The slightly rosey, beeswaxy, leathery and soapy-clean scent that I dismissed before, trying and re-trying to understand or like is what caught my eye (nose?) not long before.

As luck would have it, I stumbled on a vintage bottle of the regular EdT (not the Sport version). It’s not that far off the current stuff (2017 – well done Chanel!) and the strength of this means you need to go easy on the trigger. It’s perfect for casual or formal.
