They Say You Get More Flies with Honey- We Say Especially When it is Honey by Marc Jacobs!!!
No vinegar at all in this!
There's an old saying: "You catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar." We've seen Marc Jacobs with his friend Anna at The Met's Costume Institute Press Preview in years past, and we congratulate him on his recent fragrant achievement. Everyone in the know is TOTALLY BUZZING about it!
As summer is winding down though it is technically fall here in Manhattan, it is fantastic to continue the cheer with an upbeat new scent that is
DELIGHTFUL, BRIGHT, AND HAPPY.
Introducing
HONEY MARC JACOBS,
THE HEIGHT OF IRRESISTIBLE CHARM.
We know we have many QUEEN BEES reading us, and this one's for you. Honey reminds us of something sweet and natural and the U2 song, Wild Honey. And did you know that the Waldorf=Astoria makes their own honey on their roof? Back to the perfume...
THE CONCEPT
MEET MARC’S NEW HONEY. VIBRANT, BOLD, AND SPONTANEOUS.
WITH HIS REMARKABLE ABILITY TO REINVENT CLASSIC LINES AND PATTERNS, MARC PUTS A FRESH SPIN ON STRIPES WITH HONEY. REFLECTING HIS INSPIRED FASHION MIX, HE PAIRS STRIKING STRIPES WITH PLAYFUL DOTS FOR AN UNEXPECTED FUSION OF MODERNITY AND ELEGANCE.
HONEY CHANNELS THE ECLECTIC APPEAL OF MARC’S DOT SIGNATURE AND ADDS HER OWN GOLDEN TOUCH.
THE DESIGN
BOLD STRIPES, FEMININE DOTS AND A PUNCH OF COLOR MEET IN A GRAPHICALLY CLEVER MIX THAT REFLECTS MARC’S INVENTIVE PLAY ON CLASSIC LINES AND PATTERNS.
PLAYFUL AND POLISHED, THE BOTTLE IS AN ELEGANTLY CRAFTED GLASS BUBBLE THAT REVEALS THE CHEERFUL GOLDEN HUE OF THE FRAGRANCE. BLITHE BUTTERFLIES FLAUNT VIBRANT YELLOW AND BLACK STRIPES IN A WINK TO HONEY’S SWEET AND BRAZEN PERSONALITY. SHIMMERING PEARLS AT THE CENTER OF EACH BUTTERFLY ADD POLISHED RADIANCE, WHILE THE SIGNATURE LOGO AND GOLD COIL-WRAPPED COLLAR IMPART A GILDED TOUCH.
A GRAPHIC BUTTERFLY ICON ATOP THE DOTTED OUTER CARTON ADDS A DISTINCTIVE FINISHING TOUCH.
