Greetings everyone! Coming in hot is a Nautica Classic review done by yours truly Muks the self-proclaimed cologne guru.
Today we are taking a look at the 1992 Nautica Classic fragrance. This is another scent many guys wore back in the 90s when it was released so it has a smell to it that takes you back a few decades.
What Does The Cologne Guru, Muk’s Think About Nautica Classic?
Top notes: Cinnamon, Cypress, Coriander, Lime, Aldehydes, Lemon, Bergamot, Neroli, Clary Sage, Tarrgon
Middle notes: Geranium, Rose, Caraway, Jasmine, Cyclamen
Base notes: Oakmoss, Musk, Patchouli, Amber, Sandalwood, Cedar
The notes that you will notice primarily are Aldehydes and Lime.
The Good
Nautica Classic is just what it sounds like, a classic fragrance that smells like one. I can’t explain what the scent contains within it to make it smell old, but if you take a whiff of it, you will smell like the early 90s.
So if you spent your teenage and young adult life in the 90s, this might be a good fragrance to take a shot at!
The Bad
Like most any other Nautica cologne, it smells cheap. It lasts from 1-4 hours with it generally being on the shorter side of an hour.
One of the worst reviews I read on this fragrance, “This is more suitiable for an insect repellent spray. Synthetic, cheap, and horrible.”
With other Nautica fragrances, what I mostly dislike about it is the longevity.

This guy seems to understand how I feel about this fragrance…
I agree… Nautica Classic is a cheap and should be treated as one
Who Should Buy Nautica Classic?
Age Group: 40+
Nautica Classic is a fragrance that has a old school scent to it. For that reason, it should be worn by mature guys that can pull this off.
Season: Spring/Summer
This scent works well for the warmer months of spring and summer. It doesn’t have the spicy notes that a typical fall or winter cologne would have.
Time of Day: Day
Without a doubt, this is a daytime scent.
Occasion: A quick hit
Juse like most of the Nautica fragrances, they don’t last very long. Use it for a quick hit.
Gift?: No way
Find something else to give as a gift.
Longevity: Horrible
If a fragrance lasts less than 2 hours, we have problems. The longevity is horrible.
Harmless? – No
Nautica Classic doesn’t have a completely neutral scent to be worn in any situation and not make someone feel uncomfortable.
Popularity – Not popular
Nautica Classic is not very popular with only around 1,000 people. It is one of the top selling colognes, but not very popular.
Price – Amazing
If you can get a bottle of fragrance for under $11 a bottle, that’s a pretty incredible deal.
Awards – 0
None Yet… Most likely never
Sexy – Not
Try finding a Nautica Classic review where someone said it was “sexy”. It simply is not.
Signature Cologne – No
If you’re wearing this fragrance as your everyday scent, you’re probably broke.
