PROJECT OVERVIEW

A BOTANICAL FRAGRANCE COLLECTION SHAPED BY WATER, WOOD & THE WILD.

Verdant is a conceptual men’s fragrance packaging case study focused on a coordinated bottle and folding-carton system across three sizes: 15 mL, 100 mL, and 200 mL. The project explores bottle form, carton measurements, production dielines, material selection, print finishes, and retail presentation for Cedar Veil, Rainwater, and Forest Nocturne.

BOTTLE COLLECTION

ONE SCULPTURAL FORM, ADAPTED ACROSS THREE FRAGRANCE FORMATS.

Verdant uses one coordinated bottle language across 15 mL, 100 mL, and 200 mL formats. Each size preserves the same faceted silhouette, material character, and visual identity while adjusting proportion, scale, and presence for travel, standard, and large-format use.

01 / TRAVEL FORMAT

15 mL / 0.5 FL. OZ.

A compact travel format designed to preserve the sculpted character of the Verdant bottle at a smaller scale while remaining portable and visually consistent with the larger formats.

02 / STANDARD FORMAT

100 mL / 3.4 FL. OZ.

The primary retail format balances shelf presence, proportion, and everyday usability. It establishes the central bottle scale from which the smaller and larger formats are adapted.

03 / LARGE FORMAT

200 mL / 6.7 FL. OZ.

The largest format emphasizes the sculptural bottle form and creates a stronger visual presence. Its wider proportions give the faceted glass more room to reflect light, color, and environmental detail.

PACKAGING SYSTEM

THREE FRAGRANCE VARIATIONS

ONE PACKAGING SYSTEM ADAPTED ACROSS THREE DISTINCT ATMOSPHERES.

Bottle and carton are presented together as one retail object, allowing each fragrance to develop its own mood without breaking the consistency of the larger Verdant collection.

CEDAR VEIL

WARM / WOODY / DRY

RAINWATER

COOL / AQUATIC / MINERAL

FOREST NOCTURNE

DEEP / GREEN / ATMOSPHERIC

THREE FORMATS / ONE SYSTEM

CARTON PROPORTIONS ADAPT TO EACH BOTTLE WHILE PRESERVING THE SAME PACKAGE LANGUAGE.

The packaging scales with the 15 mL, 100 mL, and 200 mL bottles, maintaining consistent artwork hierarchy while changing carton height, width, depth, and internal clearance around each format.

DIELINE & PRODUCTION

A RANGE OF CARTON SYSTEMS BUILT AROUND MULTIPLE FRAGRANCE BOTTLE FORMATS.

The carton system is documented through structural dielines, production guides, material specifications, and finishing details across multiple bottle sizes.

PRINT SETUP

Separate cut and crease guides with 3 mm bleed and a 4 mm safe area prepared around the production artwork.

MATERIAL

Premium SBS paperboard with a soft-touch matte surface, metallic accents, and selective spot-gloss details.
