From the niche of a dark teen store
One or the other (but certainly the majority here) will now curl their hair. A relatively decent perfume collection with even some of the best-known niche fragrances and then of all things Hollister's Kiddie fragrance as the signature fragrance. May they resent me to the death.
Certainly the prehistory contributed a little bit to it, because So Cal was my first fragrance ever and with it my big hobby began. At that time I had only him for a long time and wore him summer and winter, school and date. Now, of course, I don't use So Cal as often - not because I'd like it less, but because my collection has many new members now (although I have to admit that I think I can smell a reformulation to the bottle I bought in 2010).
Nevertheless, I find that here you have a very good example of a place where you should for a short moment ignore the brand of the manufacturer and make your judgement about the juice without any prejudices. Since I'm not a Hollister fanboy myself (and never was) and I don't celebrate the clothes or any other Hollister scent, I was impressed by So Cal from the beginning. A sweet scent, pineapple, a little heavier, but still suitable for the whole year. I didn't have a similar scent DNA under my nose yet, so I didn't have any usual 0815 scent.
Unlike the other creations of Hollister I think that this one is justified for the price and not, as usual, a 5€ water from Rossman with a logo of a hyped teen brand on it and sold for 20 times. As already mentioned above, this fragrance would come from a conventional, well-known designer brand and a bit more expensive on the market - nobody would probably complain (above all, the fragrance would then have become so popular - so it is ignored by many because many Hollisters do not like or take seriously).
The durability is not at all bad, I get about 5-7 hours with it. Projection & Sillage are also neat. So Cal even shows a real fragrance, what you wouldn't expect for a perfume of this brand - if it is seductively sweet at the beginning by the pineapple, so this lies down with time and he gets darker and a bit harsher and the leather gets through a bit.
The sweet would be associated as "youthful", but I find So Cal for everyone under 30 really good to wear.
It's my right that this fragrance isn't more established, so despite "cheap" perfume one smells relatively unique.
ps: Hard to beat as a room fragrance!
