Hollister Wave For Her

PLEASANTLY SURPRISED!!!—on how much Hollister Wave is a love for me!!! Seriously..... Background story first. Review is following paragraph.— I was ordering new clothes from Amazon, and naturally, I wanted to order another perfume. I hesitated at first— self-aware of my addiction with perfumes—and knowing my overindulgence of fragrance beauties, I added Hollister Wave to my cart anyway. I “needed” it in my wardrobe. 😁 It was a steal! My lunch orders cost as much, sometimes more. I should also disclose that I LOVE Hollister Malaia so I figured why not purchase another Hollister. (I have no affiliation with Hollister.) It was a blind buy.— COMPLETELY worth it for me! Fragranticans will agree too. At first spray, I was like—-hmmm.... Amber! Fresh amber. Fresh, clean amber. A vanilla undertone.— But—not a gourmand though. It’s different in a great way. I’ll repeat— Pleasantly surprised! You can wear it every day and is office appropriate or casual gatherings. My first spray was in summer, so definitely, summer works. But IMO it could be worn year round. Hollister Wave also lasts long on me; and oddly, I crave to smell this fresh, clean amber scent. Seriously, buy it. You’ll be pleasantly surprised like me. 💜

This is gorgeous. The star fruit is beautiful & almost smells watery in a lush way. The quince breaks through & the solar notes are present - shimmery, warm & uplifting. I absolutely love this gem. It is a young fragrance but it makes me so happy. Divine Update: I'm completely obsessed with this & can't bear to be without it. I'm addicted to that first hit. It's joyous & it makes me feel like a sunshine starfruit goddess. Fragrances send people mad - it's a fact. And it doesn't have the best staying power but I like that. Part of the thrill for me is the spraying of the perfume. I enjoy spraying it liberally several times a day. It feels decadent

Super pretty fruity floral, very juvenile in the best way, I keep a little 30ml in my purse and spray it to freshen up or just when I want to smell undoubtedly feminine and still inoffensive for work. Definitely doesn't have the best longevity but holds a sweet intimate silage that I find quite pleasant. Also definitely a compliment getter and general crowd pleaser, I bought mine at Marshalls for $12 and for that price I could definitely see myself purchasing this again. If the colour of sunshine had a scent it would be Hollister wave.

Every time my brother's girlfriend came over, she would fill the room with a captivating fragrance. Curious about what it was, I finally asked her, and she revealed that she wears Hollister Wave. Out of all the fragrances I've tried, this one stands out. I keep two bottles stocked because it’s my go-to scent. The best part? You can find it on Amazon for just $20! It lasts all day and has a luxurious scent that feels expensive. Hollister Wave has officially become my all-time favorite!

What a beautiful perfume. It was a blind buy, and love at first spritz. Smells like fresh, clean white cotton t shirts drying in the sun. Not soapy, though. Smells like a warm hug in a sunny day, when you just had a shower and your skin is still slightly wet. Reminds me of walking on the beach, a warm breeze touching your face. Not too feminine, I can picture men wearing it. It's a thick summer scent, when the sun is shining bright and everything radiates this warm smell.

This is a love! Received it on the mail today and I love it. Its very fresh, the solar notes are amazing and really make this fragrance bright, like you're on the beach in a sunny day with your hair loose and some flower sunglasses. There is a note in here that I really like, I just wish I knew what it is... Makes it smooth, not powdery, not soft, it has something delicate about it like baby lotion or doll scent. Just delicate. New favorite.

The sky is a cloudless, brilliant blue. You're outside, a breeze scented by delicate pink flowers cooling your brow while you collect the clean, sun-warmed laundry from the line. LOVE this perfume! It is fresh, floral, and comforting, like cozy flannels or a hug from an old friend. This is something to envelope yourself in on warm lazy days. Enjoy! My bottle is 2 years old and longevity is decent: easily 8 hours when sprayed on clothes.

Smells like summer! I absolutely love it, it has everything I want in a summerperfume :) Light, sweet floral, easy to wear, not overpowering. It has like a fruit bubblegum scent and its really soft :) Lasts about 6 h on my skin, people told me I smelled good ;) It makes me so happy! This will always be in my collection.

Sprayed it on blind, and it was really not the boring fume I expected. I thought I detected loads of magosteen/xango, but it must be the combination of star fruits, quince and "solar notes"--which I am guessing is calone, and lots of it. I like it a lot. But then, an unpeeled mangosteen is one of my favourite scents.

My favourite summer perfume its so light and fresh and I even spray it around my room, its perfect for summer and really suits that kind of weather its very beachy. My only problem is I wish it lasted longer 😢 it only lasts about half an hour on me and its very disappointing because I love it so much!

I wore this scent the winter of 2017-18 whilst i was in Orlando, and now i long for it more than ever, a perfect example of how scents retrace old memories and give you a warm hug of nostalgia. My gosh how i miss it. Perfect scent for a perfect little period in my life :)

I find this one very interesting. Sweet and fruity but not cloying. Tropical, sandy, beach-y - there is something nostalgic about this one. Not something I can wear daily, but will be wearing occasionally on a right day

A surprisingly good scent which is fresh, has a subtle fruitiness and a powedry setting.

A nice tropical freshy. Not sure why floral is listed as second as this is a sweet fruity tropical and fresh scent but fresh in a way that a melted lollipop is, as it is primarily sweet but not too cloying. Not sure about the solar notes but most likely it is the warmness of the amber and invigoration of cassis. When you smell close to the skin then, yes, some floral sharpness is there and the dry down is kind of powdery, which I don't really understand and like for tropical scents, but seems this is the way they are made regardless of the price point. Not to over-spray as it can get cloying in the summer, last for about 3h before going all out skin scent. Sillage is fine, can feel it hovering around with a hint of quince and hibiscus here and there. Conclusion: Yes - if you are looking for a tropical freshy with interesting notes that you can wear on a summer night-out talking with the girls over some cocktails NO - if you are looking for a floral forward, tart scent or light everyday scent. The quince here is candied at best, also the dry down has amber and sandalwood so, yes, powdery vibes.

Light and fresh and perfect for Summer. All of the notes in this smell soft and vague and I get a bit of salt with the sweet which doesn't take away from the feel. I feel a bit too old to wear this youthful fragrance, but it's certainly uplifting and fun. For me, the florals, especially the poppy, is the main attraction, but I can definitely detect fruit as well. I don't get a strong sense of the base notes dry. Overall vibe is tropical without going overboard. The Silage and longevity is what I'd expect from an EDT rather than this EDP. To me it dries down more shimmery and soft than powdery. If you're looking for dark and sultry, I'd say to pass on this one. This is fun, flirty, and casual. I'd even go as far to call it extroverted.

This is a cute tropical freshy. I definitely get the star fruit and quince. Apparently the solar not is supposed to be perceived as sparkling and uplifting, and I do kind of get that from this fragrance. It has something of a fizzy sweet tropical drink vibe. It's perfect for a casual hot summer setting. I've also tried Free Wave, and for anyone curious, they smell nothing alike. Free Wave is much sweeter and softer, this has a bit of a sharp edge to it that's smoothened out by the amber in the dry down. I prefer the original (this one) because Free Wave has something a bit sweaty about it - kind of like you're wearing a sweet deoderant that wasn't that effective at keeping the sweat at bay lol.

Initially quite strong on me but not overpowering. Soft floral and something that smells like freshly cut cucumbers which might not sound as good as it is. It's a safe all-round fragrance on me. My skin doesn't bring out the citrusy notes others describe. I wish I'd bought it earlier in Spring/Summer because it lasts a quite a bit longer than Canyon Escape (which I prefer but it has no longevity), so I look forward to wearing Wave next year from mid Spring or when we begin to have temperatures over 15C here in Denmark. I just wish the sweetness didn't start out so synthetical. The sweetness fades to something softer and warmer, on me within 10 mins.

So fruity, like a fresh fruity smell, and sweet yet also slightly sour. Really like nothing I already own. Successful blind buy. Can’t wait to wear this in summer. Edit: my boyfriend loves this one. Sadly it doesn’t last longer than maybe an hour.... The top notes are so luscious and fresh and fruity..... but then when they’re gone that’s it, that’s all you were getting. I will keep it and wear it as a freshener, or a body spray, or to cool down is summer (although it’s very fruity it doesn’t last so no worries about the heat).

This is very much in the same style as Ariana Grande - Sweet like candy or Ralph Lauren - Big pony 2. Airy sweet - not cloying, refreshing, synthetic (in a good way, if it makes sense), easy reach, and better lasting than the two I already mentioned. A scent to use if you don't want to bother anyone. Surprisingly long lasting on clothes - I can smell it for days!!!

Carambola and solar notes were both smells that I was very unfamiliar with until this perfume. For those who want to know, they both smell like a very fruity drink from vacation. I like that myself, Wave 1 is very light, like a body spray, good for the summer, but it will need topping up regularly as the staying power isn't as good as the scent.
