Strictly for Men

I dont want to be 'that guy' but I love it. This is my dad's signature scent and as a kid I remember spraying some of my dad's bottle on me and loving the smell. When I was older and I borrowed his car, I could smell this on my hands because my dad rubbed this fragrance on his face and thus transferring it to the steering wheel. Whenever I smell this, I think of my dad. It's a verry masculine and confident smell. It's a love or hate kinda smell, you either hate it because it offends your nose, or you love it for the experience to smell such a wonderfull smell and appreciate this for what it is. Not that much out there that is like this. And especially the older bottles where straight up beast mode in longevity and projection. It is a shame it is difficult to get in other countries, cause you are missing out if you haven't smelled this. I will always keep a bottle in my collection and a spare or 2 in a safe place so I never run out. I will keep using this as a time machine, whenever I smell this I think of my dad and all the good times we had. This is why all you dad's out there need a signature scent, it's invaluable!

Outstanding. Antaeus Chanel, yet more subtile, quite better. Serious composition of spices, that are perfectly matched and joined, and centered inside something floraly-fruity, and all positioned on perfect base combination. Top, middle and base notes are bonded astonishingly - absolutely without any noticeable transitions. Longevity and silage will not let you down. Liquid with STRICT character. Manly, upper class barber shop craft. Distinct dark, without anything bright in it. It somehow reminds me on a black bird, maybe black swan. I like to wear it in the Court. Too serious for a casual use... but again it depends.. This is an scent of an business lider. Outstanding.

Not only do I agree with guest_Jack, I would add the it is the sexiest, most masculine scent I have ever come across and I have tried many. I have been using it for 20 years. Now I am having trouble finding it and would welcome any suggestions on how to find it.

Amazing masculine frag. Very unique, definitely not dated and excellent performance. I love this 😍10/10 By the way the have another one called “Basic Instinct” one the most unique freshies out there.

A good masculine scent for when you are on a budget. I like it. I bought a full bottle blind buy. Though I wish they eliminated the citrus/thyme and put in Tobacco, Incense and Black Pepper. Just to give it a nice boost. The dry down is excellent. One issue . There are two versions. Strictly for Men and and Van Gils for men. Strictly for Men is offered in 30ml bottles but in the Netherlands which is also in 100ml bottles too. On ebay I could not find a 100ml Strictly for Men only For Men.. They do differ in notes slightly.. Strictly for Men is going to be the better one given the notes. Do be careful in which you pick..
