The title says it all. Your favourite of these 3?

Chanel Antaeus
Oscar de la Renta Pour Lui
Cartier Santos Concentree
post #2 of 32
Among these I'd go with Antaeus but if you say strong deep and dark, there's nothing like Or Black IMO.
post #3 of 32
Out of those three I'd say a very very very close call in favour of Oscar Pour Lui. But Antaeus remains one of the best scents out there imo.
post #4 of 32
Antaeus by far, IMO.
post #5 of 32
Antaeus of these three, but, among those not specified, VCA pour homme running close.
post #6 of 32
Among these three, a close contest between Antaeus and Santos Concentree.

Hard to choose Antaeus or Santos Concentree, but i will go with the Chanel
post #8 of 32
Antaeus for me.

Of those three, Antaeus by far.

I have to reconsider this one I think. On second thought; Antaeus is darker and more sinister than Oscar Pour Lui...so maybe Antaeus is the best out of the three.

Oscar de la Renta pour Lui is the best of these three.
post #17 of 32
Antaeus but to me it is only medium roast.
post #18 of 32
Antaeus if you have the vintage juice. I am currently using the reformulation as air sanitizer. Otherwise a brilliant scent that can be dressed up or down.

I have owned ODR Por Lui for a while now. Great "dark" scent depending on the person. To me it is more aristocratic smelling than anything else. More for a european crowd than an all around american IMO. Navy blazer jeans and loafers. In my case tough to pull off with jeans and work boots.

Santos Concentree also dark in a Grey Suit sort of way. More for a guy that wears suits and khakis/dress shirts on weekends.

I'd say it is more navy blazer/grey dress pants/dress shirt/tie/loafers or oxfords. :P

Sorry, but I have to skip all three and pick VC&A pour Homme. I cannot believe that you didn't include it in your poll.

I don't care much for it either and I went with the Cartier.

What your describing sounds more like lalique - encre noire

The bottle in the package with the leaf pattern (latest version)?
Can't believe you find that disgusting when loving Antaeus (current formulation) tbh.
Quite the same range with VC A being superior.
post #28 of 32
I find Pour Lui very powerful , stronger, better longevity than Antaeus. If you can pass the opening notes(which I don't like) of Antaeus ,then is a great fragrance.
post #29 of 32
Sorry, but none. My answer would be Fahrenheit Absolute if this wasn't a pool. Fits perfectly your description IMO. Another one: Pure Coffee.

I have not said that I love Antaeus. I like it, but I don`t love it. I like both Egoiste and Pour Monsieur better from this company.
post #32 of 32
Ok, still wondering though which version of VC A you tried and disliked so much and why?

On topic: I'd go for Oscar de la Renta Pour Lui
