Welcome to Paradise: Immerse in a Tropical Getaway for Shower and Bathtime

It goes without saying that 2020 has been an unexpected year. Doesn’t an escape (even if virtually), to an exotic, tropical destination sound more appealing than ever?

Well, Pandora listeners are in for a treat! Dove & Pandora have partnered to launch the Tropical Moods SoundEscape , an uplifting mental refresh designed to turn listeners’ showers and baths into a private escape inspired by the vibrantly luscious and fruity scents of the Dove Mango & Almond Butter Collection. This guided experience features energizing, tropics-inspired music and sounds (birds chirping, soft rain falling, djembe drum beats) to welcome listeners into a lush island atmosphere as they begin their shower or bath, using Dove Body Wash, Dove Instant Foaming Body Wash, Dove Beauty Bar or Dove Exfoliating Body Polish. By shepherding listeners through the sights and sounds of this tropical paradise, the Tropical Moods SoundEscape inspires them to take on anything the day may bring. In addition to the SoundEscape, Dove & Pandora also created the Sunset Paradise Mixtape , a custom, complementary music station that features upbeat, energizing reggae, dancehall, hip hop, pop, and more.

As Marketing Director for Dove and Dove Men+Care Amy Stepanian explains, the brand team had a hunch that audio could be a powerful tool to create an immersive experience—they just needed the right partner to execute:
