by Jacques Polge , François Demachy
Chanel Antaeus is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1981, created by Jacques Polge and François Demachy. The fragrance opens with Clary Sage, Coriander, Lime, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Basil, Thyme, Jasmine, and Rose, and dries down to a base of Labdanum, Castoreum, Oakmoss, and Patchouli.
Our verdict on Antaeus: Statement
A brooding monument of masculine perfumery, Antaeus is an unapologetic blast of mossy leather and herbs, still unmatched in its animalic elegance and raw power. Not for the faint of heart or the modern minimalist.

Best Seasons
With its rich mossy, leathery, and woody notes plus animalic warmth, Antaeus is best suited for fall and winter, where its complexity shines. The aromatic herbal opening also works in spring, but it's too heavy for hot summer days.
Best Occasions
Antaeus is sophisticated and commanding, ideal for formal events or evenings. Its bold projection and animalic facets make it less suited for the office, casual daytime, or sporty scenarios.
