Heritage.
A woodier take on the original Voyage DNA.
Nautica Voyage Heritage was released in 2018. It is based on aromatics, woods, and spices. It lasts three to four hours on the skin with intimate projection. In this review, I will describe its smell and performance and if it’s worth it.

What Does Nautica Voyage Heritage Smell Like?
Heritage opens aromatic from the start. A unique and equal blend of mint and rosemary lead the opening. They have a degree of spice and maturity that will add to the aquatic background. Like the original, the aquatics are present but become more prevalent over wear.
As the mid develops, it stays exceptionally herbal and aromatic.
The dry-down starts to develop within half an hour from the first spray. It brings semi-sweet lavender with a dominant sandalwood base. The aquatic notes still linger in the background and are slightly stronger. The rest of the wear is aquatic woods and subtle aromatics.

Performance
Voyage Hertiage lasts three to four hours on the skin with light projection. It pushes out a foot or less for the entire wear. Even if you move around more, this doesn’t project better as it is so light. This performance is with five sprays.
This is spring and summer wear. It doesn’t have the depth to push through the cold air. You’ll get six months of wear if you live in a four-season climate.
As for occasions, it is all. This is both a pleasant and wearable fragrance that won’t offend anyone. This translates to its excellent mass appeal and likability. There is nothing about Voyage Heritage that is decisive, along with the subtle projection, makes for a very alluring and attractive fragrance.
Final Words
There are no similar fragrances to Voyage Heritage. Even the original Voyage is not, as it is a much greener fragrance.
The final burning question is, is Nautica Voyage Heritage worth it? No. This is one of the worst cost-for-value fragrances on the market. Many times people on fragrance forums will say a fragrance has horrible performance even if it is beast mode. Yet, Voyage Heritage is actually bad.
I appreciate what the perfumer tried to do with the notes blend, but the performance is a deal breaker.
If you Nautica Voyage Heritage, I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
