For what it's worth, despite the O in OCaml, in practice the object layer isn't used that often. However, that's because the ML module system serves many of the same use cases that objects and classes do in other languages. People do use objects in OCaml occasionally if they need the dynamic dispatch. I'd say that OCaml blends imperative and functional programming cohesively and fairly equally, though.
