What do white flowers, independence, and steamy southern nights have in common?

Reese Witherspoon was inspired by each while creating her exclusive new scent for Avon, In Bloom by Reese Witherspoon.

In the behind-the-scenes video below, she talks candidly about the new perfume, which launches on November 1st. Here's a peek:

"In developing In Bloom, I found myself drawn to the scents of my childhood in Tennessee," she explains. "We had a great big Magnolia tree in the back yard, and it's that beautiful white blossom that inspired the perfume."
