Production Technology
The bottle is handcraft double-layer glass. Four type of fragrance are original design.
Design Challenge
First of all, it is a big challenge to illustrate memorable scene by fragrance and resonate with lots people. It need both imaginary and intuition. During the realization, it is very difficult to make a smooth combination of the outside glass cover and the inside glass container. Because of manual welding or soldering, it is also difficult to make sure the perpendicularity of the inside glass container. There are many details and technical problems need to be solved such as bubbles in glass and parting line of the inner glass bottle.
Research
After a complex market research about fragrance, I chose four kinds of note to develop and wrote down the brief of fragrance design and started to collaborate with perfumer. Trying to illustrate some different kinds of wonderful moment and by fragrance. Meanwhile, sketched the bottle shape which inspired by a melting ice cube.
Inspiration
The Trinity Collection inspired by ice, which represents the moment in eternity and the eternal moment. Moment and eternity are the constant topic of human beings. Life is too short, people always want to make the moment into eternity. In fact, every wonderful moment constitutes the eternity. Although touching moments are too short to stay, they could continually touch us in other way. Similarly, the trinity of ice, water and air could pictured the dynamic change of moment, memory and emotion.
Project Duration
The project started in April 2020 in Shanghai and finished in October 2021 in Shanghai
Operation Flow
The shape of bottle is inspired by a melting ice cube, which is a changing moment of the trinity in ice, water and water vapour. There are four type of fragrance: Muguet Shadow (Floral Note), Mandarin Sunshine (Citrus Aromatic), Bamboo Breeze (Fougere Aromatic) and Smoky Vetiver (Woody Note). These four type of fragrance illustrate four beautiful moment.
