Ocean Pacific for Men

quite a strong woody opening that almost reminds me of fresh mulch, very spicy-cedar with a touch of earthiness from patchouli then a surprisingly rich and mellow leather-amber drydown that is like the sort of heat that rises from a mulch pile. So not the exact smell per say, but like the impression of a mulch pile. An aromatic start with bergamot and lavender gives it a classic feel, and keeps it from being brash or rugged. nice presence and well-lasting.

Great juice..very similar to Davidoff Davidoff for men and Vermeil pour homme...70' 80' fougère style.

Woody & leather scent. Feel very masculine. Great value of money. I've got 6 hour longevity. 8/10

Best perfume bottle ever. Good fragrance but not as special as the bottle. 8/10

This is not bad at all. The bottle is really quite creative - the thick blue fluid trapped between the inner and outer walls, give it an effect a bit like a lava lamp. The bottle really does not give a hint of what to expect when you actually smell the fragrance itself. It starts of with the camphorousness of lavender and the sweetness of fruit. This is overlayed onto cedar and cypress. The woods have an almost peppery aspect to them. As it dries down the floral heart is revealed. To me it is reminiscent of Oxygene by Lanvin crossed with Arpege pour Homme. The patchouli is quite gentle and as such it is quite a smooth offering. On me the longevity is not great, however, it has been 38 degrees C with about 50% humidity the last few days: it would be interesting to try it in winter. I picked up 2.5 oz (75 mL) for about $14 Aus, which makes it a great buy.
