Oak Bath and Body Works for men

nice woodsy aroma i had the opportunity to smell it at the store and i like it, the entire collection was nice since they had types of cologne for every occasion and this was a slightly darker more of a night time version

The name "Oak" is a misnomer for this fragrance. There isn't much woody about Oak. The comments below about it smelling like the drydown of Obsession For Men are spot on, only Obsession smells better.

This is like the olfactory equivalent of sweet and sour pork: sugary, syrupy sweet with some tartness. It smells terrible. All I smell is amber, no wood notes here. When I see a perfume called "Oak", which has a photo of wood grains on the bottle, I expect a dry woody scent, not this. Not much here for fans of woody fragrances with this one. Absolutely awful.

MY RATING: 3/10

Don't like many men's colognes (bad experiences). But I love this cologne on a guy. Very sexy..

This perfume smells delicious on my husband. This can be a unisex scent since it's not too masculine. I wear it sometimes too, and it's lovely on me.

So pleasant and soft, good enough for my son to wear, he picked it out as his first scent....the girls will chase him even more now!!

It smells familiar - that's because it's about 90 percent CK Obsession for Men when the drydown takes over. Not unpleasant though.

My man doesn't wear cologne...just scented deodorant and deodorant body sprays. That said, he is NOT into Axe or Bod...but rather the classic scent of Old Spice which I love. I'm also a fan of the classic Drakkar Noir, but I can't get him to wear it. So, I bought this BBW Oak deodorant body spray for him while shopping for myself one day and luckily he likes it...as do I! A great woody scent that reminds me of freshly fallen leaves in the fall after an evening rain! :)

Smells nice enough. Nothing amazing and pretty short lived (about 4 hours on my skin). It only projects for the first couple hours and then becomes a skin scent only.

5/10

This is my favorite out of the four new mens releases. It has a lot of notes listed yet it is not heavy or too strong. The others (though good)have been done to death in my opinion and this one puts a new spin on the woody concept...

The topnotes are well-balanced citrus-herb scent that is very airy and fleeting. One would expect such a combo to be sharp and in your face or loud and this is none of those things. The florals are dry and sweet and the warm well mixed spices are comforting. If you have ever smelled an oak whiskey cask, that is the predominate note in this and the flawlessly blended woods such as sandal and red cedar add to this. The coffee is not detectable per se but it must add to the overall richness of this as do the soft earthy vetiver and the clean patchouli tinted musk. An excellent fall scent with not too much spice or "dirtiness"...

Sillage: above average
Longevity: super
Overall: 3.75/5

If you only buy one of these, this is the best smelling by far. It is very skillfully blended and may in fact have some natural components. It is a beautiful down-to-earth kind of scent that I kept going back to the test stip I brought home and sniffed it again and again and today, 3 days after spraying it on the paper it is still there, and still great...
