Concept

Replica perfumes are a unique concept: they represent the ephemeral quality of both scent and memories. The new label design highlights the brand’s concept through an abstract representation of scent traces.

The name of each scent is written following the traces, in a script font meant to highlight the personal aspect of each perfume.

Data Visualization

Each aspect of the design is carefully considered to illustrate each perfume’s scent and the memory it evokes.

Automated Generation

The label generator is linked to a Google spreadsheet, where new scents can be added and new labels are automatically generated.

Two Generators

For even more flexibility, the design shipped with a second generator that tests visual representations of new scents.

Putting it all together

The original bottle was kept, with the new label design merging seamlessly with the organic materials.
