Reviews of Nautica Classic (1992)
by Nautica

Smells unisex, mostly because it just smells like window cleaner to me.

Blah,blah,blah,blah with intense blah churning out the heart notes. The basenotes consist of more anemic blah creating an aura of lethargic blah.

Great frag if you plan on spraying and then immediately taking a siesta. Gives new meaning to the term "generic".

Should be called Blahtica.

Now u smell it now u dont....

very nice fresh scent but it has a very very short life span...no wonder the cheap price tag...

This was my 1st cologne EVER! I had the aftershave spash bottle. It actually belonged to my uncle who passed away. I wore this in middle school (aka junior high). Good memories tied to this frag, so I'm going to have to give it a thumbs up

A great smelling cologne, with almost a soapy essence to it. It is cheap and mild, but cake on more! It could almost be a unisex fragrance.

Ugh! hate to provide this scent with yet another negative review...but it is awful. I bought it for my dad when I was in middle school, and he never touched it. I wore it for a little while, but then lost the bottle. When I rediscovered it, I was struck by how sour, ozone ridden, and abrasive the top and middle is. If you have the patience to wait around for the sandalwood, power to you.

One of the very first fragrances I ever wore as a kid, received as a gift from a family member. Cheap smelling, and I was always self conscious about walking around school and reeking. Never got any complaints with this one, but then again I didn't get any compliments either. Nautica has come a long way since releasing this.

This is indeed 1 of thee worst scents I have ever smelled! I dont know what Nautica had in mind when creating this stinch..

Virtually no smell. Has nothing at all to it except a blue color. Terrible.

I alternated this with Polo Black last year and got 0 unsolicited stranger comments. 0 comments = 0 score. My deodorant got more than that. I agree with tvlampboy...waste of good glass.

Nautica doesn’t require much comment: Most of the previous reviewers have it nailed — alcoholy, cheap, one-dimensional, powdery … definitely forgettable. I get a bit of an Eternity note in there somewhere and that certainly doesn’t do anything to improve Nautica. Not a good fragrance.

A decent enough fragrance but a little on the one dimensional side. I wore it a lot in my younger years.

I wore this through out high school in the mid 90's and always got a compliment regularly. It dries to a baby powder like scent.

A horrid waste of perfectly good alcohol and glass.

The initial blast reeks of alcohol and stays that way for a good 15 minutes. The dry down is pretty good although not long lasting for me. A pleasant smell but with a bad introduction and a short powdery life on my skin.

Pleasant, but not at all unique or catchy in any way. I picked this up as a packaged deal with Tricorn (which is marvelous) and found it to be a cheapie that would best be suited to de-stink yourself after the gym if you don't want to waste any of your treasured fragrances. Longevity is a bit below average. Overall reactions from other people is that it is nice but not deserving of compliments. An interesting mix on paper between the top and mid notes, but winds up appearing as a rather plain, fresh scent with a slightly powdery background. Probably a fragrance suited for a teenager as one of their first fragrances, much as CK one is in my opinion. Very non-offensive and overall a decent fresh fragrance.

A pretty good, clean smelling fragance. I figured that it would be a really blue, cool smelling scent...and to some extent it is. However, it is warmer than I had imagined it being. This is not said to detract from it...it's just that it surprised me a little bit. I would say that this is a bit more of a summer fragance, but it could be pulled off year around.
