It’s not overpowering it’s just a good masculine leathery rich spicy scent. Yes it’s over powering to fairies today who smell of cup cakes and Pantene but try whacking this on you in the mid 80’s when it was even richer. It lasted 2 days and chicks would not help but get very close to you.
Hi Lewis Evans! It's great to hear from you, someone who likes a fragrance that I, personally don't. As I normally say, likes and dislikes differ from person to person. To me its flower notes are too much for my liking. But hey-ho, if Chanel Antaeus Pour Homme makes you smell good, feel good, and you get complements, so keep on wearing it! Thanks for your sincere and spontaneous comment. I enjoyed reading it. Would you have any fragrance recomendation that I perhaps should try? If so, I'd love to know what it is especially because I'm always looking for new fragrances.
This is a mature man’s fragrance, if you’re fed up of the wishy washy fragrances of today, this is one for you. The dry down is great and will last in the skin all day with a very good projection. I think it’s a classic and deserves lot more love than it gets
Hi Carl Durbin, first of all, thanks for your comment. I do appreciate it. I still don't know why my nose and my brain reject this fragrance. I still have it, but I can lie to you, I still don't like it. Who knows in the future my nose and brain will smell what you and others do that make you enjoy wearing Antaeus pour Homme. I'm glad to hear that you like it, so keep on wearing it cos it's all about having fragrances that make you feel good. Thanks for your honest comment 👍
Antaeus is arguably the most masculine fragrance ever created. I’ve never smelled another men’s fragrance that has the darkness, boldness and sophistication like Antaeus has. The dry down is simply magnificent. However, it’s not a fragrance for young guys. Adolescent boys who go out with friends? No. Early 20 year-olds who go clubbing? No. It’s suits men best in their mid 30s and up, men who are confident and unabashed about men’s masculinity. There are no citrusy or light notes in Antaeus that you smell in younger scents like Cool Water.
Agreed (based on a vintage version I have). I've smelled the new version in passing a while back but I don't think it's as bad as what's being described in this video.
@@deluxelex9056 the newer version of Antaeus lacks the natural castoreum and much of the beeswax that the vintage version has. It’s still a great men’s fragrance, though they’re using synthetic castoreum now. In my opinion, the most masculine men’s fragrance ever created.
Hi Per Allwin, It's been 7 days since you posted your passionate comment about Antaeus Pour Homme, but it's been so busy at my fulltime job I could not get back to you earlier - I really enjoyed reading you comment. It shows how much you like Antaeus by Chanel. I respect a person who knows and defends their smell. The only observation I'd like to make is that, in my personal opinion, whether one likes or dislikes a fragrance has all to do with personal taste and not age. For Example, I year a go I came across Laligue pour Homme Lion, which has a very mature scent; however, I like it and since I reviewed it on this channel some people have told me that it's for old men, but although I'm not an old man I do like it! However, I am a great believer that our tastes for things (sometimes even people) can change due to various reasons i.e. good or bad experiences - I, for example, like some fragrances because they remind me of nice places I visited or good times of my childhood. Antaeus pour Homme however reminds of my great grandma's perfume, which I didn't like then and still don't like now. But who knows one day, by whatever reasons, my taste changes and I begging to like Antaeus pour Homme by Chanel? Thinking this way, I still have the same bottle of Antaeus I reviewed in the video you watched! My theme is 'never say never'! Anyway, thanks for your comment. I honestly appreciate it. 👍
@@forscentssake. I didn’t say that people who like a certain fragrance (like Antaeus) are of a particular age. I said that Antaeus is “more suited” for men aged 30 and up, not for young guys. Certainly there are some young men who love the scent of Antaeus and they should wear it if they enjoy it. Similarly, there are older men who don’t like it.
@@PerAllwin1963 OK, I guess I get what you mean, but I just thought a bit odd because you stated "...it's not a fragrance for young guys. Adolescent boys who go out with friends No. Early 20 year-olds who go clubbing No. It suits men best in their mid 30s and up..." So, because you emphasised age so much that kind of implied that guys below 30s wouldn't wear it or are not mature enough to wear it. Although I agree with you that Antaeus pour Homme isn't a fragrance one may choose to wear when going out clubbing it wouldn't be wrong or inappropriate if one did cos in the end of the day it's all about individual likes and dislikes. Now about maturity, I must say though, I've come across many immature men in their late 30s, late 40s and older. However, I kind of agree with you as it appears older men do show more maturity than most of the younger ones. All in all, I got what you meant and I honestly appreciate your reply to my comment. As I said in my previous msg, I do like hearing/reading from those who know and like their fragrances. All the best 👍
Hi Adam B 👋 Although Antaeus pour Homme isn't a fragrance for me, as its floral notes are a bit too much for my liking, I appreciate your comment and am glad that you enjoy wearing it. In the end of the day, it all goes down to likes and dislikes. So if a fragrance makes you feel good, go for it! 👍
antaues with silver atomiser is where it's at. so much more animalic and thats what makes the difference with this scent. i too was dissapointed with the new version. the older one was twice as strong and blended like a niche fragrance
I haven't experienced the older version, but now that you mentioned how much better it is, I see if I can find it. I guess I was expecting it to be very good for being Chanel. Learned my lesson!!
Agree , I found the current version very airy and water compared to what it used to be ! It’s still denser and darker than other scents available today on the designer market regardless … but I miss how better it used to perform.
Hi Alejandro Zamorano! Thanks for your view on Antaeus pour Homme. It's great to see that some guys do like this fragrance; it's not my cup of tea, but I still have it though as I've been using it to create my own unique scents by layering it with other fragrances! Some people don't like doing it but I find it quite interesting as it allows me to come up with some very nice smells; however one must be very careful as some mixing can go totally wrong!! I even made a video showing how I use Channel Antaeus with other colognes of mine. Feel free to watch it and give me your opinion. That's OK if you disagree with me. I really would love to know what you think. Anyway, thanks for stopping by, and I hope to hear from you again! 👍
Hi Christopher Evans! Thanks for sharing your opinion on Chanel Antaeus pour homme. I honestly enjoy reading other people's opinions on frangrances. Although this particular scent is a bit too floral for my liking, I'm glad that you like it. I have to agree with you though you don't need to spray much of it, and it's longevity is really good. By the way, I'm still very new and small in this niche, so if you have any ideas for new videos feel free to suggest, and your feedback is always welcome. 👍
@@jacobnoergaard thanks for sharing your view. I still have that Chanel Antaeus and have been using it but to create new scents. I've even made a video entitled 'How to easily create your own fragrance' where I show how I do it. I've found out that the floral scent of Chanel Antaeus is perfect for that. If you have time to see it let me know what you think. Maybe you'll disagree with what I've been doing, if that's the case, it's OK, but because you like Antaeus I thought you'd be someone who can give me a frank opinion.
@@forscentssake Thanks for the feedback. I saw the other feed and I do know about layering. Have been experimenting with it sometimes. I have 120+ fragrances, so there's a lot to mix, and my wife have 40+ and I have sometimes mixed with some of hers as well (since a lot of fragrances really are unisex). It is, however, not too often I end up with a very good result. Some are quite good, while others are simply really odd. Sometimes you get a very odd smell in the beginning, but it develops into something quite interesting. It can be fun to experiment, but to be honest, much of the time the results are not really better. But thanks for your tip. I think I'll try mixing up Antaeus with something sweet.
I bought a decant of Antaeus, as I had wanted to try it. The first sprays reminded me of Oil of Olay, a very strong smell of roses that reminded me of my grandmother (and not the hyper-masculine beast I was expecting). The connection is leaving me a bit, but as you say no-one really speaks about the strong accent of roses - but perhaps they are not so familiar with the small of Olay. Thanks for the review.
I'm glad to have found someone who can smell the strong rose notes in Antaeus pour Homme. And it's interesting that, like me, Antaeus also reminds you of your grandma! It's rare to come across many people mentioning it! Many thanks for your comments 👍
@@forscentssake It was my 2nd favorite cologne in the late 80's- early 90's. Baryshnikov, was and is still No 1 for me. I have 2 bottles left from the late 90's. Thank you for the shout out! Ps. liked the coat/sweater/tshirt look as well! Strikes me as very Euro..French if I were guessing the style?
It is very interesting how noses are different... I absolutly can't get any floral smell out of Antaeus, let alone roses! To my nose "Zino" by Davidoff is smelling very floral, too much for me...
Hi there! this is really very interesting! I personally just make my nose stop smelling roses when I sniff Antaeus por homme by Chanel! I've been trying to like it, but the strong smell of flower I get from it put me off completely. That's why I normally say that like and dislikes very from person to person, and your comment demonstrates that perfectly! Really? you floral from Zino by Davidoff? Wow, I on the other hand like Zino and as you can imagine, I don't smell much floral notes coming out of it. By the way, I do like floral notes, but it has to be in the base notes, really base!!! Many thanks for your comment - I honestly appreciate it.
I have every man fragrance (100 ml’s) of Chanel, except the 2 Pour Monsieur (edt and edp), will have them soon. Antaeus is a boss fragrance. Onky fir winter night. The fragrance changes after half hour and then becomes even much better. Well its not for everyone, not everyone is a Boss😉
@Highwayzero Hi there!👋 thanks for your comment 👍 I gather you like Antaeus pour Homme by Chanel, and I'm glad you do, honestly. By the way, you're right. Not everyone is a boss. Some people like to smell good just for the sake and pleasure of it!! But is Antaeus pour Homme just for bosses?!🤔
Well, Per Allwin, so it's clear that I'm not in that percentage of men who can carry off well Chanel Antaeus!😊 But it's good to know that there're guys out there who enjoy wearing it. Thanks for your comment, I sincerely appreciate it very much 🙏
Hi there 👋 sorry for taking 2 days to get back to you. I've been trying to find the name of the website I bought Chanel Antaeus pour Homme from for £33 but I just can't find the website anymore. I now wonder if they went broke for selling it at such a low price!! I can assure you that the Antaeus pour Homme I bought was not a counterfeit. As its scent didn't please me even at the slightest, I never looked for it again. But because of your comment I went to check its price and got surprised to find out that the cheapest you may find is around £90!!! Now, about what not to like about Antaeus though, I still say that it is its floral smell that puts off completely. I still blame my great grandmother's overpowering floral perfume! 😊 But hey, I'm glad to hear that you like it. In the world of fragrances nothing is 100% right nor 100% wrong as like and dislikes vary from person to person. I wouldn't be at all surprised if you told me that you dislike fragrances that I may love! Thanks for your comment and I truly hope to hear from you again. 👍
And thank you for watching! I'm currently looking for a different/new fragrance to do a 1st impression as you suggested, and perhaps an unboxing video!
@RAFA1852 I totally agree with you. Antaeus pour Homme has far too many rose notes, but of course, in the world of smells, opinions vary from person to person. Thanks for your comment. It's much appreciated 👍
That is not the first formulation, I can tell just by looking at the bottle. Also, there is not such thing as discounted Chanel. Never . Last, but not least, all reformulations are great.

Regarding the price I paid for my Chanel Antaeus pour homme, the only thing I can say is that someone somewhere lost money on that sale. I've checked if I'd been sold a counterfeit and I'm glad to say that I wasn't!. Regarding its smell, as I normally say, and it's true, I give my honest and totally unbiased opinion on every fragrance I review but likes and dislikes vary from person to person. Although it's not for me and I wouldn't recommend it, I'm happy you like it. About me taking long to get back to you it's because I'm currently in Brazil exploring this amazing country while I try to get hold of as many Brazilian fragrances as I can. From next week onwards some reviews will be available on this channel should you feel like seeing some of my experiences in Brazil which, so far, has been amazing. Once again, many thanks for your comment. It's always a pleasure to hear from someone who likes talking about fragrances. All the best.
Chanel does occasionally make it onto the grey market. Here in Australia I found Egoiste (the original, not platinum) at a discount pharmacy. Chanel doesn’t sell Egoiste in Australia so that might explain how the pharmacy got hold of it (probably on the grey market).
Hi there! Sorry for the delay in getting back to you - These been busy days on my patch! Can I just clarify if I got your request right. Are you asking for a comparable fragrance to Antaeus from Oriflame or Avon? I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Hi Scot. I appreciate your comment. It's good to hear that you like Chanel Antaeus pour Homme. To me it's too floral, so I just use it as a background scent when I'm layering fragrances. For that Antaeus is quite good. The important thing about fragrances it to wear what you like and feel comfortable with.

This is a great cologne...I wouldn't hesitate. Unless the original scent has been changed.
Hi Scot. I appreciate your comment. It's good to hear that you like Chanel Antaeus pour Homme. To me it's too floral, so I just use it as a background scent when I'm layering fragrances. For that Antaeus is quite good. The important thing about fragrances it to wear what you like and feel comfortable with.
it isnt the same anymore. cheapened to death
