The fragrance

Antaeus, an Eau de Toilette from 1981, is a mossy leather scent that Chanel has preserved without reformulation. It opens with sage and myrrh, leading to a dark rose and labdanum heart. The base features a strong leather and oakmoss accord, evoking a classic, masculine style. This is a powerful, traditional fragrance, not for everyone, which makes a decant ideal for discovery. Those who appreciate its character often keep it as a signature scent for decades.

The full bottle of Antaeus is 1,350 MAD for 100 ml, which is 14 MAD per millilitre. The 2ml decant works out at 25 MAD per millilitre, so 1.9 times more. That premium buys you roughly 5 days of wearing it properly, on your own skin, in your own climate, before you decide whether to put 1,300 MAD more on the shelf.
