OP Blend by Ocean Pacific, 2002

Purchase this online for a really cheap price. It's alot like D&G and the original Swiss Army. For the price you really can't beat it for a casual scent that you can wear on almost any occasion. Sillage is good for around 3 hours on me but it dies down fast. I like this one.

Quite pleasant. Citrus, melons, and lime top notes, typical floral heart (nothing that stood out to me), with a musky dry down. Worth the 7.99 at Marshall's, but not worth much more. Lasts about 4 hours.

imitation D & G... ok for work.

Kinda like a light Dolce & Gabbana. 'Blend' in my mind is more like white and green mix of notes. Gotta hand it to Ocean Pacific for making something that doesn't seem like it came from a trendy clothing store. Good sillage but lasted only about two hours in the summer heat.

I totally agree with the Dolce & Gabbana comparison. They are *almost* twins in my opinion. The only thing that puzzles me is there is no tobacco listed in the note pyramid, but clearly it's a basenote. And that what makes it smell so much like D & G.

Not being a big fan of tobacco, this one really isn't for me. But I would recommend it as a cheap alternative to D & G.

I would agree that it's similar to D&G. To me the main difference is that it seems to have less of a tobacco accord. Ironically, I didn't care much for the tobacco element in D&G, so I prefer this.

It does have a dumb spray mechanism, apparently somebody's attempt to be edgy and cool.

It has pretty strong sillage, and about medium lasting power on me. It's quite sweet in a pleasing way. I think of it as a nice informal fragrance.

Well its bottle looks cool anyway thats a plus. Seriously tho its not that bad of a frag. Smeels like Liquorish(or some other candy) to me. Which is weird cause I don't see any liquorish or candy notes in it....hmmmmm.....But thats the main problem with this one at least on me it smells like liquorish when its first applied and stays that way the whole time its on. Now most fragrances have diffrent smeels during the drydown not this one just one smell the whole time, it's not a big deal cause its a kinda cool nice smell just needs to be a little more interesting I guess. All in all its an OK frag very simple yet pleasing. I'll recomend it to people who dont mind smelling like a old timey candy store.

When I first saw this I thought a kids fragrance something a 10th grade boy would bathe in to attract young girls. At first whiff on a test strip, it smelled like so many cheap citrus top note colognes. But after a few minutes a warm complex, peppery, tobacco scent became prominent. Wow, this was no kiddie cologne ! The musky peppery tobacco dry down is something that smells of sophistication and class. Its got a warmth that is good for cooler autumn and cold winter days. Although for office use I can see it useful for anytime. The base scent seems to last quite a while, although the citrus top notes quickly dissipate. Inexpensive, its a good fragrance for most men. I really like it. I find it great for after the gym or casual use as well as more formal use. The bottle is quirky in that it sprays up instead of to the side, also the gelly rubbery coating seems like a cheap gimmick. The hair/bath gel also has the base scent and leaves you smelling great out of the shower. Others say that it smells like Dolce & Gabbana. I've never tried Dolce & Gabbana, but if it smells like this it is probably pretty good.
