door hinges stainless steel with pvd or solid brass with pvd

Hi all - decided to install gold colored hinges, door knobs etc in our new house.

Could anyone suggest which hardware material will hold up best for exterior doors - stainless steel with PVD plating or solid brass with PVD plating ?

We have used gold colored PVD on stainless steel from various manufacturers in the past and found that quite often the plating will drop within a matter of a few months.

Is solid brass with gold PVD plating best or is stainless steel with gold PVD plating best - I'm guessing it's more complicated than it first seems?

Cheers
