About Bath & Body Works Ocean

The fragrance these clones are inspired by.

Bath & Body Works Ocean (2017) is a men’s fragrance in the brand's accessible lineup, built around watery and ozonic notes with cypress and vetiver adding green-woody and earthy depth. The scent reads strongly aquatic and woody, with aromatic and fresh facets that open crisp and clear before settling on a vetiver-tinged drydown. Marketed as an easy summer daytime cologne, it holds broad appeal among casual shoppers and rates near four stars from several hundred votes while drawing frequent notes of clean marine character and complaints about short wear time.

Our take

I find Ocean reliably fresh and simple: bright ozonic water notes with a light cypress-vetiver base that works well for hot, daytime wear. It is inexpensive and pleasant, but projection and longevity bother me, on my skin it typically fades in two hours, so I use it for quick outings rather than long nights.
