Gap Blue No. 655 Him
Gap (1997)

Decent spring summer scent for the Gap / mall crowd. Inoffensive low longevity and projection. The scent itself is good start and ends with a fizzle. My 7 year old son loves it though...

Found this at a Gap outlet ($8.50 for 15ml, discounted further). It's a fragrance that's so blue that it's green, its freshness (created by citrus and herbs) going straight through aquatic to something plantlike. It's pleasant, agreeable, and probably even unisex, and most importantly, cheap, since unsurprisingly lacks projection and longevity. Still, not a bad option to mix in as far as a fresh EDT for the summer (especially travel, with the bottle size). Hard to believe I cannot remember trying this since it's been out since 1997 but it felt new yesterday. If you see, it grab a small bottle.

6 out of 10

A scent of lovely green spring fields opens it up, combined with orange ice cream notes. Herbal impressions develop in the drydown, touches of basil and woodsy notes. The wood becomes stronger in the base, and I get sea-salty vibe without any ozonic or aquatic component on my skin.

To me this is one of the better Gap scents and not without an interesting touch in spite of its simplicity. With moderate sillage, good projection and five hours of longevity on me, this is quite all right. 3/5

If you take Polo Blue and remove that overwhelming cucumber, you will get this. Frankly, this is superior to Polo Blue; it is a pure, wind-bown aquatic that is very well balanced throughout.

Interesting mix of greasy woods and grounded herbs to make an aquatic scent to smell like dirt and ozone.

Oh man, I loved this one back in middle school (same with Cologneist). It's a simple, fresh and clean lime/musk kinda fragrance. I recently found a bottle for $10 and it was a blast from the past.
