Hollister Socal is an Eau de Parfum. Socal opens with Melon, Pineapple, and Coconut, settles into a heart of Pine, and dries down to a base of Suede and Vanilla. Hollister's Socal carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This cult-favourite '90s mall scent is a nostalgic trip for many, celebrated for its unique tropical-woody blend. However, its notoriously poor performance means it's often more of a personal pleasure or room spray than a serious fragrance.

About

Socal opens with a juicy, sun-drenched burst of pineapple, coconut, and melon, instantly whisking you to a tropical paradise. This fruity sweetness then mellows into a surprising pine heart, adding an aromatic, slightly green edge. The journey finishes on a warm, creamy base of vanilla and a smooth, subtle suede, grounding the vibrant top notes with a soft, inviting finish.
