Antique shares Gris Charnel's fig, black tea and cardamom, adding coconut to the opening. Iris connects the powdery middle. Caramel brings extra dessert-like sweetness to the listed sandalwood-and-tonka finish, giving the alternative a different outline from the original's creamy woods.

Performance notes and sources
Gris Charnel
A detailed skin test reports about 8.5–12 hours at one or two sprays, with a fairly restrained cloud that fades during wear. Other wearers report shorter results; these are individual tests of the EDP, not the Extrait.
Profile reviewed
Niche Emarati Antique
Eight-to-ten-hour report but weak-to-moderate diffusion, strongest in opening hours. Editorial estimate from retrieved wearer accounts, not a measured consensus. Performance varies by skin, application and version. Accord ratings were not reassessed.
