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!

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!
Please please restock! It’s my favorite scent and I’m out! Next time I’m definitely buying a few at a time! 😭
Very nostalgic nice clean fresh scent
Love it exactly what I wanted. My favorite scent! Been searching for yearsssss!
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 !!!
This is the real deal! Millennial nostalgia and perfect scent dupe of Hollister’s August. PLEASE BRING THIS BACK IN STOCK FOR SUMMER 🥰
This is my favorite! It smells just like the original! Please restock 🙏🏻
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.
Searched for years. Finally found this and am in love. Unfortunately, it has been out of stock for months. Please restock!!!
Thank you for the limited restock I snagged 3 yay !!!!! 😊😊😊😊
PLEASE RESTOCK! WE’RE BEGGING YOU!
Please restock!!! I am half a bottle in and I came online to buy more stock so that I wont run out and it's sold out! Amazing scent!
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! :)
Please Restock!!!!!!
PLEASE RESTOCK!
PLEASE RESTOCK!!!
Came here to purchase for my birthday month coming up and it’s out of stock 😩🥹 PLEASE RESTOCK BEFORE AUGUST
PLEEEEEEEEEEEEASE RESTOCK!!!!!! 😩😩😩😩
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.
It was much smaller than I thought but it DOES smell like August!
I absolutely love this and have gotten so many compliments! This really does smell like Hollister August!! Im soooo happy!!
Smells exactly like I remember August smelling
Smells just like the Hollister August perfume that was discontinued. Love it!!
I love this perfume so much, its one of my top ten
How long does it usually get back in stock?
Please bring this back!!!
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!
Please restock this!!!! 😭😭😭😭❤️🩹❤️🩹
This is literally my favorite fragrance ever and I would pay any amount of money to have it back in stock.
Please restock! This is my favorite, everyday perfume!
Please restock!!!! This scent is amazing 👏 🤩
Please please please restock! I'm waiting for this to be restocked please.....Thank you!
Been looking for a dupe for the 2007 Hollister August and my prayers have finally been answered with this fragrance!
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!! 🥳☀️😁
Inspired by August It's a nice smelling perfume. Definitely doesn't smell exactly like August but it gave me the feels and brought me back to that time.
I get compliments every time I wear this fragrance. It’s my new favorite & very affordable!
Got it for a Christmas gift for my mother. I've been searching for something that's just like August/Beach Please over the years, with no luck, until now!! She was SO happy and absolutely loves it!
Not quite, but still nice I'm trying to keep in mind that this is "inspired by" August and is not going to be an exact replica! I think this is a nice scent, but it's far too aquatic to be compared to August. It does still have the nostalgia, but it's missing those woody notes that made August a little masculine.
