Bring Back Hollister SoCal for Men – Anyone else still hunting this scent?

I’m contemplating trying to reach out to the Headquarters of the Abercrombie and Family Stores Inc. lol…but FR

I’ve been seeing more and more mentions of it lately across fragrance threads and older posts, and it honestly seems like there’s so many people trying to track it down or find something similar.

What made it stand out (at least to me) was that warm shoreline + light coconut vibe that wasn’t overly sweet and smelled way more elite than the Mall price tag….It just smelled like warm , beach air, and that classic Hollister store aesthetic back in the day.

I tried newer options and designer fragrances, but nothing really gets that exact balance. A lot of coconut scents today lean either too creamy/sweet or too heavy and .

I actually think there’s a real gap in the market for that specific profile again.

I’ve noticed:

  • More discussion in fragrance communities about discontinued Hollister scents
  • People still trying to find “SoCal dupes” years later
  • Nostalgia posts popping up about early Hollister/A&F fragrance era

So I wanted to ask:
Would anyone else actually want Hollister to bring this back (or do a modern version of it)?

Even a limited “heritage revival” would probably sell out instantly.

Curious if others feel the same or if I’m just stuck in nostalgia here.
