Are you referring to the F minor Fantasy? If so, I think that these two pieces are in the same ballpark of difficulty.  If I had to choose, though, I would say the Fantasy, both in technical terms and also in memorization (a Fantasy is usually free-form, so you can't depend on the normal patterns, of, say, sonata form).

Why? Do you want to go for the easier one? It took me more time to learn Scherzo No. 3 than Fantaisie Op. 49. But, I agree with SteinwayTony that both od them are of similar difficulty. Just follow your heart.. ;)
