NEW YORK, Oct 29, 2011/ — On October 19th, supermodel, activist and Avon spokesperson Christy Turlington Burns stepped out to celebrate the launch of Avon’s latest fragrance, Step Into Sexy. At the event Avon announced a $10,000 donation to Christy Turlington Burns’s charity, Every Mother Counts.

“At Avon, beauty means finding a great new fragrance like Step Into Sexy, but it also means championing economic empowerment and improving the lives of women around the world,” says Lily Destefano, Avon’s Vice President of Marketing, North America Beauty. “It’s very special to work with someone like Christy who shares our Avon values.”

An Oriental Floral, “Step into Sexy” is a fragrance for the woman who aspires to be her most sensual self. Its top note is a seductive scent which opens with alluring, elegant notes of black raspberry, mingled with delicate spring freesia flower and a whisper of fresh, crisp, violet leaf.

The mid notes are deeper; more sensual heart reveals warm rosewood and velvety ultra violet blended with a flutter of exotic butterfly orchid.

The base notes are transformative notes of creamy cashmeran, sueded orris root and golden ambers unveil a sophisticated, long lasting base.

Step Into Sexy Eau de Parfum (1.7 fl oz) is available November 2011 for $28.00 exclusively through Avon Representatives. To locate an Avon Representative, call 1-800-FOR-AVON, or visit www.avon.com.
