Downy the leading global fabric softener launched their #Spread100Hugs campaign with Miss Universe 2015 and hug ambassadress Pia Wurtzbach. Downy Scented Christmas Tree is the first ever hug-activated that lights up when people inside hug each other in the perfume-scented chamber. Decked with red LED lights, the sea of red roses inside the 50 feet Scented Christmas Tree. It stands majestically at Eastwood Mall’s open park in Quezon City.
Christmas is the time of gathering and reunion for families, relatives & friends and the first time that we see each other we offer our warmest hug or shake hands to show how we miss each other. The power of hugs is undeniable gives comfort and that's the priceless gift. With this campaign, Pia Wurtzbach and Downy redefines gift-giving this Christmas with a simple yet meaningful gift idea — a hug.
The crowd is ready for the much-awaited lighting of the first ever scented Christmas Tree. Some celebrity guest like Mariel Rodriguez, Say Alonzo, Melissa Ricks, Helga Krapf, and Princess Velasco and family are joined also the event in the culmination of Pia’s hugging tour.
The main inspiration of this Christmas tree takes from the luxurious fragrance of Downy. It takes essence from the smell of an endless field of flowers, to which is exactly what this tree is made of and something we recreated in a mirror room that’s right in the heart of this beautiful structure, and the opulent feel of velvet, a fabric which embodies softness, both wonderful elements to inspire a loving, hugging emotion.
Most people underestimate the power of a hug. A hug has the ability to affect us all, and facts attest to their incredible power on how it can make us feel warm and special. Renowned family therapist Virginia Satir famously stated, "We need 4 hugs a day for survival. We need 8 hugs a day for maintenance. We need 12 hugs a day for growth."
What can be a more powerful way to express your affection and love to others than with a warm, meaningful hug? Through Downy’s #Spread100Hugs campaign, we want to let people realize that hugs are a wonderful way to connect with the people that truly matter to them. And with Downy Parfum Collection’s long-lasting scent, every hug will smell fresh, from the first until the very last hug.” said Louie Morante, Regional Brand Communications for Fabric Care P&G Asia Pacific.
Joining the event are some real and inspiring stories of Filipinos—Diane, a deaf and mute mother of two, and breadwinner to the family, who showed how a hug can be able to say how much you care and love a person even without uttering a word.
Dhorie, an OFW who needs to leave her children this coming December once again, showed how she can hug as long as she can (even up to 45 seconds or more), even during the times you need to say goodbye.
Kenjie and JJ, and Catherine and Robi, who are same-sex couples who never feared to show their affection to the public, and how a hug can show that they can power through any obstacle together.
Fernanda Baky, a retired teacher, and David Baky, Head of Security for the US World Relief Corporation, about to celebrate their 51st anniversary, showed how a hug can truly be long-lasting.
These hugs are not the brief, half-armed hugs or just pats on the back, but heartfelt embraces that we long for. And because hugging means getting real close to people that we care for, Downy Parfum Collection™ gives everyone the confidence to spread hugs.
