“Getting to Know Sue Clifton, Dooney & Bourke”: A...

celebrate summer with dara, heidi & mari lyn

by on

hello lovely philosophy girls!

with spring upon us and summer just around the corner, it’s time to start transitioning our wardrobes. like a magnificent butterfly, the heavy clothing that cocooned us, keeping us warm all winter, gets put aside and we emerge in fun, flirty sundresses, shorts, and sandals for the summer. as you update your clothing wardrobe for the change of seasons, it’s also time to update your fragrance wardrobe, which is why we created our philosophy summer fragrances—summer grace and the NEW falling in love summer.

both of these fragrances instantly put you in the summer spirit with their warm, happy, and romantic notes, while tying back to their fragrance family through their bottom note.

summer grace features sun-kissed citrus and uplifting summer floral scents, tying back to its grace sister fragrances with a musk bottom note.

“i love that the moment you spray summer grace, you can’t help but be in a good mood. it shares the softness of the grace family of fragrances and captures the essence of summer perfectly. the scent warms your day and is appropriate for all moments in your life.” -dara

“summer grace is my all-the-time fragrance. i find i reach for it on weekends when i’m feeling especially lighthearted and free. when i want to start a work day off on the right foot, i spray it on and immediately feel effervescent, happy, and productive. i find i feel more creative when i have it on...and whether you're on vacation or doing business, you can never have enough of that.” —heidi

“summer grace takes me to my place of peace and happiness...the beach! i have my favorite sundress on, my flip flops in my hand, and i’m walking along the waterline with my toes in the sand. the sun is shining, not a cloud in the sky—just a simple breeze and the water is warm.”

falling in love summer features warm, fruity, floral scents with a touch of amber, tying back to its love sister fragrances with a vanilla bottom note.

“falling in love summer takes me back to a time in my life when summer was more than just a season—every day and every night were events. i like to remember back when, during summer vacations, life was all about having fun, being with friends, and summer romances. the first time i tried falling in love summer, i was instantly transported back to very carefree, flirty summer seasons when i didn’t have a care in the world.”

—dara

“falling in love summer immediately makes me feel enlivened with possibility—very similar to how you feel in the summer when you want to get the most out of every day.” —heidi

“falling in love summer reminds me of my niece, lauren. this fragrance is just her style—soft with lovely lace fabrics and sheer floral shades. she’s a hopeless romantic. i love that this fragrance combines the lovely fruity and warm vanilla notes with a hint of floral.” —mari lyn

because of their seasonality and the joyful feelings they convey, we’ve selected these two summer fragrances as the heart of our Today's Special Value. offered in your choice of summer grace or falling in love summer, each collection includes a 4-oz spray fragrance, 32-oz perfumed shampoo, bath, and shower gel, and a 32-oz perfumed body emulsion. it's designed to wrap you in the sunshine and happiness of the season and help you celebrate summer in a super-sized way. we look forward to sharing this TSV and more with you during our shows on april 28. until then, please visit us on our Facebook pages and share your philosophy thoughts and passions.

best wishes,

—dara, heidi, and mari lyn
