I found this shaped small bottle which could be either a smaller bottle to take in a bag with you as it has a spray nozzle or it could be a luxurious sample bottle. It shows how the geometric edging can be applied to smaller forms.
I found the Stella McCartney bottles which actually appeared quite similar to our design however with a different visual result due to the dimensions. It shows that our design is possible to be created and will look effective as what we envisioned, a gem.
I found these bottles that are encased in wood, it made me think that theres different materials to be used not just glass and paper for perfume and packaging. I found there design and atheistic very strong and striking, defiantly something that will stand out amongst others. Glass is defiantly appropriate for us as we want a reflective and light absorbing material to create shine and glimmer.
Beautiful Shigenobu Twilight ”This is the first handcrafted scent by NY artist Anicka Yi and architect Maggie Peng. The fragrance is inspired by the Fusako Shigenobu, former leader of the Japanese Red Army, who was believed to be in exile in Lebanon for many years after orchestrating some of the group’s most political statements. Yi and Peng have chosen cedar wood as a central theme of this fragrance’s narrative, as cedar is highly regarded in Lebanon as a national emblem. The scent uses three different kinds of cedar wood as its base note, along with violet leaf and nutty heart notes, and top notes of yuzu, shiso leaf, and black pepper. The packaging for this hand-distilled fragrance is made of raw cedar wood, each bottle uniquely (and painstakingly) hand-cut by the creators in architectural geometry, encasing a 10ml glass bottle of liquid within.” Via Ooga Booga Store

This wonderful perfume comes from Dean and Dan Caten for Dsquared2. It reflects their Canadian roots - through simplicity and through wood. The wood is represented in the fragrance as well as in packaging design, where the wooden block protects the inner glass bottle. Delivered in an outer paper box, with a natural and simple look.
This is possibly the most bizarre perfume bottle i've ever seen but it shows how the concept can be demonstrated through the shape and format it takes even sometimes the extreme.
Packaging:
I was struggling with the packaging so decided to look for inspiration to find different features like closing, lid, bottle fitting etc. I wanted it to still stay in connection with the concept but make the packaging more unique as that what they want it targeted at.
I like how this box is tied closed so when undone the walls of the box fall down to reveal the bottle.
This is an extreme unusual shape for packaging is similar to what i've been trying with the edging of the net.
When the lid is lifted the sides fall to look like petals which is connection with the concept of 'rosie' and the rose flower. Very simple but effective.
This is a dramatic packaging that oozes masculinity, expensive and luxury. I like that the box separates and the lid is the larger proportion that leaves the bottle in its own stand rather than it needed to be lifted out the box to be revealed. The lifting of the lid up revealing the bottom upwards is almost like the camera gaze of the body.
This is a very unpractical idea in cost for packaging but is dramatic and unique.
This uses very thick sturdy stock to make a proper box that opens centrally to the reveal the middle of the bottles.
I like the edging of this packaging taking on a shape of the leaf, subtle but effective and creates great texture and difference to the box.
This uses a tie again to unite the sides but only a section opens to reveal the bottle which is in atheistic of a champagne bottle.
