Antaeus Chanel
Chanel launched Antaeus in 1981, created by Jacques Polge for men. The opening is sharp and invigorating, with clary sage, coriander, and citrus notes like bergamot, lime, and Amalfi lemon, providing a clean and zesty start. As the scent settles, rose, thyme, and basil add a floral and slightly herbal complexity. The base notes are rich and earthy, with castoreum, oakmoss, patchouli, and French labdanum, creating a deep, musky, and slightly smoky character. The overall impression is of a robust, aromatic composition that is both woody and leathery, with a grounding patchouli presence. This fragrance suits cooler, more casual settings, such as a fall evening in a city park or a quiet office in the late afternoon.
