The Design

About Mau Ambalaža za parfem

Mau je dizajn ambalaže za voskani parfem inspirisan japanskom tradicijom. Ime Mau znači plesati dok se lebdi, a tema je mekoća i lakoća. Parfem se čuva u papirnoj tubi izrađenoj od washija, tradicionalnog japanskog papira. Dodir akvarela na washiju izražava nježni karakter mirisa. Voskani parfem ima nizak sadržaj vode, pa ambalaža može biti izrađena isključivo od papira, bez plastike. Nježni miris je namijenjen ljudima kojima je parfem na bazi alkohola prejak.

Production Technology
A wax is mixed with jojoba oil and essential oil while being hot. When everything is blended together, pour waxed perfume into paper tube made of washi (This is a conceptual work, so it's a hypothetical production method).
Design Challenge
It can use only paper without plastics for package as wax perfume's water content is less than alcohol one.
Research
Some people don’t prefer alcohol perfume as most of them smell too strong. However, waxed perfume has a soft smell that spreads calmness, which seems more suitable for consumer who have an aversion to strong smells.
Inspiration
The theme is softness and Lightness like floating in the air.
Mau means dancing like floating in Japanese.
Some people don’t prefer alcohol perfume as most of them smell too strong in their standard. However, waxed perfume’s soft smell seems more suitable for them.
Project Duration
2016-2019
