About this item
Sand and driftwood sit in the foundation of Hollister Wave 2 Perfume, and the beach reference is not subtle, coconut nectar, peach and mandarin orange offering the top a sweet, tropical character, the coconut arriving immediately and setting the whole tone. Tiare flower, water lily and pink freesia form a creamy monoi like heart, floral and sun warmed rather than fresh. Sand, driftwood and orchid leave it dry and faintly salty, the driftwood adding a weathered woodiness beneath all that sweetness. Whatever sand contributes in practice, the effect is mineral enough to keep the coconut from becoming suntan lotion, which is the trap every beach fragrance risks. As a floral Eau de Parfum, Wave 2 Perfume finds its natural home in soft, feminine daytime occasions. Wave 2 Perfume earns its place in regular rotation.
