This scent is Chanel's best for men but has always been difficult to buy in the US. Was sold in Europe for a long time before being available in the US. I've been wearing it for 30 years and still get compliments for those I know and even from strangers! It's my signature fragrance and wouldn't use any other. And, while the container looks big, it meets TSA requirements!
I typically use Chanel No. 19, but I was looking for a smoky, peppery fragrance and the Chanel representative insisted I try Antaeus. He was spot on, this is not too strong for a woman and I love it.
