RARE Kyoteau - Bottled Memories, Della Chang & Various, Hardback 2009

Collector's art book, amazing gift - comes with perfume ampoule, NEW KyotEau: Bottled Memories is an elegantly produced volume that is at once personal and profound. It deals with the intertwined topics of scent, memory, and the process of design. Well conceived and delightfully packaged, this thick book documents perfume packaging designer Della Chuang's (perfume packaging designer for Tom Ford Beauty & Ralph Lauren) very own perfume project. For the project, the city of Kyoto was the source of inspiration, while the celebrated Cristophe Laudamiel was the designer of the fragrance. The publication collects Chuang's insights and experiences from her visit to Kyoto that drove the design and realisation of the scent along with its package design, and acts as an illustrated guide to how designers in this field think. Lodged in the back of the book is a small ampoule of the seductive eau de Kyoto Kyoteau, that completes the experience.
