This is a leather eau de toilette with warm and powerful chords, embodying seduction and strength. Inspired by ancient mythology, it symbolizes the symbiosis of the sensual feminine and the active masculine principles. Named after Antaeus, the son of the Greek gods Gaia and Poseidon.
An elegant and luxurious fragrance, it exudes a powerful force and generosity. Launched in the 1980s, it vividly represents the style of men of that era, with their distinctive images and steely characters. In Antaeus, one can sense nobility, chic, elegance, and respectability.
The perfume composition, belonging to the family of chypre and woody scents, begins to unfold with notes of coriander, lemon, bergamot, lime, myrrh, and clary sage. Following this introduction, shades of jasmine, rose, thyme, Tuscan basil, smoothly transition into a "base", where French labdanum intertwines with patchouli leaves, green oakmoss, and castoreum.
The scent of expensive suede. A very worthy and iconic fragrance. Despite various reformulations, Antaeus 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 Antaeus is all about. Thank you Make.up for reasonable prices! I highly recommend this fragrance.
I was really disappointed with the store, and it's the first time in 5 years. The lid was broken. When I picked it up at the post office, I just checked if the order was there. When I got home and opened the box, everything spilled out. The slate was slightly cracked. It didn't fall from me. This ruined my impression and mood.
I bought it for my collection, wanted to reminisce about my childhood, my grandfather used to use them... The smell is really cool, warm and pleasant, incredible, it's like being wrapped in a blanket, but not as intense as it used to be. It doesn't scream like today's fragrances, it's mature and sophisticated, 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 sillage. I applied 12 sprays on myself, and after 3 hours, I can barely feel it. Just don't talk to me about aging, the alcohol content, that it's EDT, etc., if anyone has such a desire. I know this fragrance, I know its longevity.
I would give the scent 5 stars, even though it's not long-lasting, but I would give the store's service 1 star. And I won't be placing any more orders with you. Thank you for everything.
The fragrance has not had time to settle after delivery, so taking into account the distinct smell of alcohol and the (still) slight lasting power, the following can be noted: initially, there is a very sharp and powerful castoreum, which subsides after about 15-20 minutes, revealing beautiful citrus notes, herbs, and jasmine; rose is in the background. Yes, the perfume is very masculine. However, it can easily be imagined on a woman, especially if she likes Mad Madame by Juliette has a gun (their castoreum sounds almost identical).
Old school, true art of perfumery, nothing else catches on after it.
Yes, this is a masterpiece that stands the test of time, like a fine brandy. I decided to purchase it after reading the reviews and description, although it took me a while to make up my mind. I bought it in August when it was hot, even though many recommend it for autumn and winter. As soon as I applied it to my wrist, I immediately recognized it from my childhood. It is a very worthy fragrance, long-lasting and luxurious, even though I have a tester. It is simply the king of fragrances, and I have multiple CHANEL bottles in my collection and use. Yes, it is the king among all CHANEL fragrances, and I recommend it to everyone. You won't regret it. And the store, as always, is at the highest level. Thank you very much. A grateful and loyal customer.
This is a very worthy and unique vintage fragrance.
