OM

The modern release of Gap OM is a delicate, softly woody-scented fragrance with a warm, slightly smoky dry down. It features green and spicy top notes like coriander, ginger, and lotus, leading into a heart dominated by incense and olibanum, all grounded in creamy sandalwood and patchouli-like warmth. Despite the original's rich, complex, and enduring profile, the current version is light and brief—lasting only for a few hours with minimal sillage. Many users remember the original 90s version as a deeply aromatic, spicy, and long-lasting scent with pronounced incense and balsamic notes, more akin to a potent skin fragrance than a side-spray. The newer iteration lacks that intensity, feeling more like a whisper than a presence. It's best suited for those seeking a nostalgic, faintly incense-infused scent that can be worn quietly during winter months and feels comfortable on skin. No one describes it as bold, but some still find value in its subtle burn and intimate character.
