Oceanus The Body Shop for women and men

I could copy-paste the opinion of ioio. I hate when something that I like becomes so difficult to find

I like the scent. It really reminds you the sea, the water, the fresh air... Too bad I cannot find it any more.

suitable for man i think :)

This scent is very refreshing, reminds me of the sea. I use this typically in the summer more. It's too bad they don't make this anymore! Sometimes they pull it back out at discounted prices though. I picked up the EDT bottle for $5 only!

let's write a petition to push The Body Shop re-produce this fragrance once more. i missed the airy aquatic scent so bad ...

Believe it or not, "Oceanus" takes me back to my military service years! My superior in the army (yes, a woman) obviously was a fanatic of it and made sure she was treated a good application before our daily, early morning, meeting. [all the things women do when surrounded by men ;-)]
Anyway, this is the female version of a perfume I reviewed yesterday, "Kenzo Homme". An olfactory interpretation of fresh water with the tangible capability to actually cool you down if worn in the heat!
Most probably one of Body Shop's best moments, simple (but not too much), efficient and quite distinct.
Water lily at its finest!

A tip: Keep it in the fridge.

i love oceanus...i think its the best out there...maybe just cuz i like smelln fresh : )

I liked this one when I had it but my husband said it was too sharp and it really bothered him - goodbye Oceanus!

Someone bought this for me as a present, and I tried to like it but just couldn't get into it. Very aquatic, and to me there was an unbearably strong hint of melon in the mix, which I just did not like. Nope. Not for me.

I have always loved this one...very fresh and clean smelling. Now it may be 'too much' to overly layer this with all of the body products. I like to combine the wash and/or body lotion with something slightly different such as Ralph Lauren's Pure Turquoise.

Where you guys get this? This has been discontinued in my country. This is one of the manly scents that I love. Its sillage is so inviting and seducing.

I got this today in a lovely swap, and I was really happy to smell it again. I am usually not into aquatics, but this one is an exception. Summer in a bottle. Reminds me so much of the nineties.. And of a certain greek island! It is a pity it is discontinued. Smells like a bouquet of dewey flowers and sea air. The sillage is very good, the lasting power on my skin is medium to good.

Bought this a long time ago (think 2004) and its still there in the shelf. It smells nice but could be overpowering for daytime use. I hate this perfume now because it smells VERY strong on me :(

Young, Fresh, Cool, Soft, uni sex, more for young girls. Grow on you after a while.

its too soft for men and too strong for women
its body wash might be acceptable but the edt?
nooooooo
better of as car refresher

I bought the body mist several years ago. My opinion:
1. Deeply & sweet fresh scent
2. Strong
3. Nice & Cute
But too bad, I wears it on night as during the day, the scent tend to be too strong & too sweet. Several friends also agree with this. Maybe because of hot wheather??

it has fresh scent...but i think it is too soft for me..

I bought this today. This is available again and I immediately buy it without thinking. But I was a bit disappointed because it doesn't give me the ocean scent that i expected. And I think it's a bit strong for me. The most surprising thing is that it smells like the other Body Shop EDT to me, Water Lily?!

my bf loves this perfume very much..he said its suitable for him to wear everyday n everywhere he go..i also love how the perfume smell on his skin..truly a perfect blend!

So lovely and fresh, it makes me feel like a mermaid! I can feel the sweet salty ocean spray on my skin as the warm sun radiates off my shiny mermaid tail!

great fresh smell, every spray of this throws my mind on a boat in the deep blue sea..
such a pity it was discontinued.. wise people (myself included) stocked up :grin:, but stocks too run out :haha:

I miss it so much, pleas The body Shop bring my life back! i swear it's my life i love it :(

loved it but too bad, had to stop using Oceanus and Juba since any lotion/shower gel/perfume oil/body mist/EDT from The Body Shop would simply give me rashes all over!

Oceanus is an aquatic fresh floral fragrance.Anyone who loves sea will adore it.Original and fantastic.If you close your eyes you will find yourelf in the water
swimming in lake full of water-lilies .

fresh

This is the best cheap marine/Aquatic fragrance for summertime! This brings back some really sweet memories for me.. Hot Swedish summer by the ocean wearing Oceanus edt. Nothing could have been better! *ADORES IT*

I love Oceanus. Too bad it doesn't stay long enough. None from Bodyshop does!

The first time I smelled it on my friend and fell in love. Such a nice and fresh scent. And normally I don´t like fresh scents at all. But this fragrance is a perfect summer scent. Now, I wear it since 9 years. Unfortunately, it´s discontinued. Why??

I am very disappointed it was discontinued. Oceanus was one of the few fragrances that I did not have an allergic reaction and loved the scent.

I use the Oceanus body mist, and just love the smell..its fesh, with just a hint of sweetness and yet also gives a sporty feeling of playing on the beach or something. Very much my kind of thing...

I used to love and wear the soap, lotion and fragrance of Oceanus. Such a lovely, refreshing and clean scent! Now though, wearing the scent all over is a bit too much for me, so while I may not go back to the whole line, last year, I received the scent in the bath salts as a gift, and this is where I like it best. It's just perfect in bath salts! So lovely and refreshing after a long day! The strong marine florals soften beautifully in the water. It smells like the ocean to me, but I agree too, it's like freshly laundered linens. I just lie back and I'm transported to sunny day in a house by the beach...clothes swaying in the breeze on the clothesline, and waves crashing on the beach...

It's one of the most beautiful scent that can be applied in tropical weather, and in any occasion, whether it was in a holiday or formal party. Started with water lily, which gave instant freshness. Then the light, sparkling floral - dominated by lily of the valley and a hint of jasmine on my skin - kicked in, with water lily still lingered behind. It was ended by musk.
One thing I noticed that it did not last long.
In short, I fell in love head over heels with this one. Too bad it was discontinued while so many women like it here.

love 2 wear it on holiday...it uplifts my spirts...i have thge whole range inc the body wash!

I used to love this one years ago. Gotten a bit bored with it eventually.

It's actually quite nice, I have the body spray. It's fresh, but not clean fresh... More a deep kind of fresh.

Anything with 'anus' in its name has got to be a marketing mistake!
