Party In August is a fragrance that won’t set you back hundreds of dollars! With August being one of the first perfumes that the designer brand Hollister has ever released, its discontinuation led to the fragrance costing hundreds of dollars on auction websites. This scent captures a fun summer party's energy. The air buzzes with energizing Citrus Notes. Bergamot adds a brilliant, celebratory kiss of sun. Old, wise Driftwood shares tales of adventure and then delicate Floral Notes emerge like vibrant confetti. They illuminate the night with uplifting smells. It all dances on the breeze like music and blends seamlessly with laughter and conversation. A summer night's worth of celebration is captured in the fragrance, Party In August. You will discover a symphony of aromas that lingers in recollections long after the party has ended. If you recall the charm of the original, get ready for a trip down memory lane with our latest inspired expression!
The artistry of the Hollister August Perfume dupe lies in how closely it mirrors August by Hollister. It captures that effortless, coastal charm the brand is known for, blending breezy freshness with soft warmth to recreate the original Hollister August scent in perfect balance.
The Hollister August Perfume dupe smells clean, fresh, and gently floral with a sunlit twist. It’s airy but still has a comforting warmth beneath it, like sea-kissed skin after a summer breeze, familiar yet quietly sophisticated.
While wearable by anyone, the Hollister August Perfume dupe leans distinctly feminine. Its smooth blend of floral tones and bright citrus notes adds a soft, elegant flair that feels graceful and naturally confident.
The Hollister August Perfume dupe fits someone laid-back yet polished, who values simplicity with a hint of sparkle. It’s ideal for free-spirited personalities who enjoy a fragrance that feels casual but never plain.
You’ll notice a radiant burst of citrus and bergamot right away. Then comes a whisper of floral notes that add smoothness and charm. Finally, driftwood grounds it all, giving the Hollister August Perfume dupe that signature ocean-breeze finish.
Made with extrait de parfum concentration, the Hollister August Perfume dupe lasts impressively long. It settles beautifully over time, maintaining its fresh yet creamy depth for hours without ever feeling heavy.
The Hollister August Perfume dupe shines during spring and summer when its breezy and bright tones feel most alive. Still, its smooth driftwood warmth also makes it comforting for crisp fall mornings.
Perfect for casual days, office hours, or evening get-togethers, the Hollister August Perfume dupe adapts easily. It feels just right for beach walks, relaxed dinners, or even a midnight breeze on a balcony.
It shares the lounge-like warmth of Replica Jazz, while also appealing to those who enjoy Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford or the textural depth found in Le Labo creations. As a Maison Margiela Jazz Club dupe, it feels smoother and more intimate than many louder tobacco perfumes.

I can’t compare it to the original because it’s long gone but I think this smells just like it! It also lasts about 5-6 hours maybe more but I might have just gotten nose blind to it after a while. I had some friends smell it and they recognized it right away so if you’re looking for August but don’t want to pay over $200 for an old bottle I think this is the best option!
So I must admit, one I purchased this like a year ago, I wasn’t in love with it, so I ‘rehomed’ it. In August it was restocked, & I decided to give it another try. So glad that I did, finally a citrus fragrance that doesn’t lean masculine. It’s bright, citrusy & perfect for this season!
I've posted on reddit how amazing this is but I realized I never posted here how much I LOVE this fragrance. I have an old bottle of August and Beach Please from Hollister and I promise this is a PERFECT dupe.
I get compliments EVERY TIME I wear this. It's nostalgic and honestly just the most perfect scent ever.
Please restock soon I need MORE.
Okay, I was nervous to buy this because there were some comments on Reddit that said this wasn’t a good dupe, but I figured for $33 over Black Friday, why not... it just got delivered TODAY and I just put it on. As someone with 2 bottles of the original August for comparison, I can tell you that those people are nose blind or don’t have a clear memory of what August smells like—I know exactly what August smells like because I still have it. This is a really, really close match - like 90-95%. Maybe ever so slightly less spicy/musky/intense. I will gladly purchase this again over continuing to shell out hundreds of dollars on eBay August. So glad to have found it!!!
This is the closest dupe to Hollister August that I've come across. It smells lovely and nostalgic. When I first put it on I wasn't noticing the similarities - however about 5 minutes after I felt like I was transported with the beautiful soft fragrant scent. Definitely some masculine notes in there. I love this perfume! Please continue making it !!!
After 21 years of searching, I finally found it. I’ll admit, I had my doubts—I wasn't even sure if I’d still recognize the scent after two decades. But the second it arrived, I couldn't even wait to get inside the house to open it. One whiff and I was 19 again, standing there the moment I first met my girlfriend now wife. It’s more than just a fragrance; it’s a time machine.
Unless Lloyd Christmas is running the re stock department … this should definitely be restocked in the month of August. Come on Dua … you can Dua this! :)
I have searched all over for Hollister's August, even writing to the company begging for them to bring it back. So you can guess my excitement when I came across this. After spending a lot of money on dupes, this one was it! Please restock; I am almost out and need more ASAP. Next restock, I am buying more than one bottle.
I have a bottle of the real stuff from Hollister. I almost used it up until I heard it was discontinued and there is still a few milliliters left at the bottom that I use on extremely rare occasions to preserve it. Then I found Party in August and ordered some to try. Pairing them side to side, I would say at first spritz, I got a little disappointed that it smells different, but when I sprayed it on my skin, my body chemistry made up the difference after a few minutes and it is almost an exact match to my nose. Hope this helps. Blessings!
Hollister’s August was one of the iconic fragrances my daughter wore in high school. When it was discontinued we both were heartbroken. 😢
No amount of begging Hollister to bring back August worked. One would think due to it’s popularity Hollister would bring it back…Not according to corporate, once discontinued, it is gone forever. 😭
I recently found this site by accident! Took a chance and ordered Party in August….what can I say but Thank goodness for Party in August! It is the closest fragrance we have found to mimic the famous August scent. 🌅
Be prepared when you spray that first spray on your pulse points to be transported back in time to your August’s most memorable moments. 😁😍❤️🥰
Don’t hesitate, just order one and I’m certain you will be back for more!! 🥳☀️😁
