What do reviewers say about Antaeus and Jil Sander Man II?
Antaeus does not ask permission. The castoreum and oakmoss drydown will dominate any room you enter. This is a fragrance for those who want to be remembered, not liked.Antaeus
The 1980s had opinions. Man II is proof. Iris, castoreum, oakmoss, a composition that doesn't apologize for being itself. Bold, smoky, powdery. If you need a fragrance to ask permission.Jil Sander Man II
