Eau de Cologne vs Antaeus

Musc Ravageur is a divisive fragrance with an attractive opening of spiced fruits and florals that develops into a creamy vanilla-musk base. However, the fragrance polarizes wearers—some appreciate its complexity while others find the musk-forward development off-putting or animalic in an undesirable way.

The community has a strong positive regard for Antaeus as a legendary, distinctive fragrance with excellent longevity and a complex drydown, though it's acknowledged as a challenging, intense scent best suited for mature wearers and special occasions rather than daily wear. Most agree it's an 80s powerhouse that rewards patience and appreciation for non-mainstream fragrances, despite its polarizing animalic opening.
