# Ad summary
A creator reviews the Recreation Beauty fragrance mists, describing each of the four new scents. She ultimately decides that two of the scents are her favorites and she sprays her favorite of the two.
# Brand positioning
Recreation Beauty aims to occupy a space in the consumer's mind of a brand that combines both fragrance and emotion-based technology. The brand promotes values that tie scent with helping to change the customer's mood. The brand ignores category norms for traditional, complex perfumes and instead focuses on creating light, body mists. The brand positioning is emotional, aiming to create perfumes that will boost the user's mood.
# Product
Recreation Beauty offers all-over body and hair mists in four new scents that are infused with "emotion technology," and proven to help change your mood. The scents are Rogue Vanilla (smells like whipped vanilla cream laced with rebellion, and feels like ice cream melting on warm skin), Bare Coco (smells like a creamy coconut whip cocktail and feels like sun on bare skin and nothing on your calendar), Midnight Mango (smells like a mango daiquiri poolside at midnight and feels like vacation mode with a wild side), and Candy Citron (not featured in this ad). The bottle is plastic, which makes it lightweight and easier to carry around. The ad addresses the purchase barrier of possibly disliking the scent, so the presenter initially sprays the perfumes away from herself.
# Visual style
