I bought the fragrance and lotion from drugstore dot com a few weeks ago when they had a sale and I actually really like it!! On me it smells almost identical to bobbi brown bath, yes bath, not beach!! It's more soapy with my chemistry I guess. Anyway, I really do like it and will wear it a lot this spring/summer!! It's definitely different than summer grace which I also liked.

I like both Summer Grace and Sunshine Grace, but they are not anything alike. I think each has a unique scent.

I'm wearing it right now. I swear it smells like a cross between Baby Grace and Pure Grace.

I went to the Base BX today and fell in love with Sunshine Grace ...... it smells like the Beach to me, which I love! I love it much better than Summer Grace!

Why no 3-in-1 bath/shower gel with this fragrance?

A shower gel in this scent would definitely be great!

I agree. It definitely seems odd that this was introduced with a fragrance and emulsion with no 3N1. I am wondering, since someone posted that there is going to be a supersize 3 pieces set of fragrance, emulsion and 3N1 of Summer Grace, Falling in Love Summer AND SUNSHINE GRACE (WOOHOO!), that maybe QVC has exclusive rights to the 3N1.

I wore this again this past weekend and am loving it even more. I still cannot put my finger on "why" I love it so much. It still does not smell like the beach to me. Whatever it is, it agrees with my body chemistry. And now I don't feel left out of the "summer scent" bandwagon since SG and FIL Summer did not work for me. {#emotions_dlg.thumbup1}

I sniffed this at Nordie's and liked it. Low key and compatible with my summer allergies. {#emotions_dlg.blush}

Philosophy sent me a code and offered free shipping so I went for the spray and lotion set.

I usually gravitate toward Summer Grace, but this has a little more kick to it. Like the packaging also.

Here is a good quote for the "mood": inspired by the cheerful spirit of summer & to add a little bit of sunshine & grace to your everyday routine. sparkling freesia draws you into gently breezy florals; orange blossom carries bright freshness & sunny musks & soft blonde woods lend summer warmth




So, to expand on this, I wanted a little more "ooomph" and dimension to this when I got the lotion and frag set. So, I had the L'occitane soft shea butter cream in the travel tin in zesty lime and I mixed the Sunshine Grace lotion and the lime in my palm and applied. Really kicked it up. L'occitane also has the vanilla in the travel tin. Sometimes I find that the Phil frags are just too linear, and by mixing it up, you can create more interest in the dry down and avoid fragrance fatigue. I am not nuts about the spray directly on me, so I spray dryer sheets for the towels and sheets etc. Love it this way.

Would love this in the shower gel 3n1 also.

The card that was included in the TSV I pre-ordered mentioned a super size summer trio would be offered soon in Sunshine Grace, Summer Grace, and Falling in Love Summer. Will include the 3 in 1, body emulsion, and fragrance. :-)

I was in Macys today and finally got to smell Sunshine Grace and Loveswept. I really like the SG it smelled very beachy(if that is even a word). The Loveswept seemed to have more floral notes to it and was heavier to me. I'm going to get the Summer Grace when I find a discount promo code.
