With scents that go well with a carefree beach lifestyle, Hollister SoCal is a fresh, clean, and masculine cologne. An initial burst of crisp tropical fruit introduces the scent's Asian motif. Top notes reflecting the sea are composed of sugary pineapple with traces of melon and coconut. In order to create depth and masculinity, pineapple leads to middle notes of dark, woody pine. Warm vanilla and soft suede notes, at last, give the fragrance a solid base. Its aquatic undertones make this contemporary fragrance especially appropriate during the long summer days, although it wears nicely all year round.
