souvenir souvenir


After creating fragrances for Givenchy, Versace, Van Cleef & Arpels, Paco Rabanne, Burberrys, Cartier, Chopard, etc, Mark Buxton creates 5 unisex frangrances inspired by souvenirs and music.
Black Angel is "an unexpected encounter in a NY club", Sexual Healing (song of Marvin Gaye) is "an addictive Fusion between man and woman", Wood and Absinth is a "magic moment in the summer twilight", Sleeping with Ghosts (by Placebo) is the "fantasy of extreme tenderness", and Devil in Disguise (by Elvis Presley) represents the "divine wind of danger"
Very interesting but it's a shame that the concept does not feel on each bottle or package.

birthday time


For its 150th Anniversary, Bacardi has designed this bottle full of story.
"We chose El Coco, the original palm tree planted by Don Facundo Bacardi Masso's son 150 years ago; the symbol of the Bacardi company's heritage and Cuban roots. The liquid concept was 'By the family for the family' a concept that resonates with the celebration of the past and the anticipation for the Bacardi company’s future."
"The etched co-ordinates 20 01 48.69N 075 49 56.86W which mark the birthplace of Bacardi rum in Santiago de Cuba where the story began."

sport in 2012

First, you will observe a lot of white for these Sport Editions, then blue or red, but not a lot of creativity.
Most of the time "sport" is very serious and a bit boring, too classic.

My top 5:

Thierry Mugler, A Men Pure Shot: the bottle and the packaging are nice and fresh.





Chanel, Allure Homme Sport: elegant, simple but not simplistic.


Lacoste, Eau de Lacoste: very different packaging and fun, with different flags in the crocodiles looking like they are running to win a race.

 Hugo Boss, Boss Sport: the packaging is kind of cool with the fiber carbon in reference to sport cars.

Givenchy, Play Sport: the textures are sweet, and this orange color too!

And an extra, but not for the design:


Kenzo, Kenzo Homme Sport: not so fan of the packaging or the bottle, but the most funny (and not serious thank you!) commercial videos.
Take a look here and here.
