Hollister Ocean Break Cologne review

Ocean Break is our pick from Hollister's current cologne range, the line that replaced Wave and Festival Vibes on hollisterco.com. Hollister describes it with salted driftwood and fresh sage, a beach scent that fits the brand's Southern California image and suits warm days, school and weekends, which earns it a high experience score. It shares one 1.7 fl oz size and one price with Pacific Cliff, Late Night Drive, Weekend Reset and Scenic Route, and it is in the six-vial Hollister Cologne Discovery Kit, so you can try it before buying. It ranks below Canyon Escape because Hollister publishes only two notes and we could not verify a USD price: the Hollister site blocked our automated check, so the price is marked pending. We compared published notes, sizes and prices and did not wear-test any fragrance.
