Fragrance Description:

CHANEL Antaeus EDT (1982), is a dark, animalic scent that radiates a commanding, "black-leather" sophistication. It opens with a bracing, herbal blast of clary sage and citrus, which quickly gives way to a complex heart of waxy rose and Grasse jasmine. Defined by its legendary dry down—a dense, rugged base of castoreum, labdanum, and earthy oakmoss that creates a smoky, warm-skin effect.
