The Design

About Scent Emballage d'huile essentielle

Scent est un coffret d'emballage d'huile essentielle conçu comme un souvenir de voyage inspiré par Taïwan. L'ensemble renferme un flacon d'huile essentielle en verre doté d'un bouchon en plastique ainsi qu'une pierre diffusante composée de gypse et de pigments. L'huile est déposée goutte à goutte sur la pierre diffusante, où le liquide se répand le long du motif de la pierre tandis que le parfum se libère, unissant ainsi la vue et l'odorat en un même souvenir. Le coffret est constitué d'un étui extérieur en plastique mat, d'un carton rigide, de mousse et de papier d'art. L'intention est de proposer une alternative aux souvenirs commerciaux ordinaires.
