For the scent, Walsh joins amber and woods with a bright floral scent. The juice was created by Givaudan perfumer MaryPierre Julien.
Following HSN, the Boyfriend line will be stocked at Sephora in January 2011.
A viral campaign will consist of branded videos featuring Walsh and different Boyfriend scenarios. Additionally, consumers will have the chance to engage with the brand and tell their own boyfriend stories via uploaded videos.
Consultant Pamela Vaile worked with Walsh to develop the product line, the marketing plan and distribution strategy and Bentley Laboratories LLC created the formulas. Chad Lavigne LLC produced the package design and branding imagery.
