Home fragrances can afford a room a personalised touch, where the fragrance is the star of the show. That said, packaging is no less important, since its purpose is to turn the product into a regular decorative element.
Materials and their form play an important role in the overall effect. So, in the case of home fragrances, combinations are important in producing a visual element that adapts to the room where it will be located. Three fundamental items are brought into play in order to get the right product: the container, the collar and the mikados (sticks).
The container’s main function is to preserve the fragrance to make sure that its properties are not compromised when it comes into contact with the packaging. Being a scented product, glass automatically becomes the most suitable material, since there is no chemical action with the contents. Besides being the best ally for scented products, glass is a 100%-recyclable material and can be reused by consumers.
The collar, besides closing the container, is an accessory that provides a major aesthetic value. Aluminium and wood are the two favourite materials for these products, since they convey the values aligned with the brand and the product, besides being key elements in attaining a fully functional product.
The third item that must be contained in packaging for home fragrances are the mikados, or sticks. Their main function is to conduct the scented liquid and push the scent up to the surface and spread it all around the room. Home fragrances often have more than one stick so that they can distribute the scent better. Playing with the different parts, such as the container, collar and the mikados, allows you to produce a fully personalised packaging for home fragrances, since different container shapes, collar materials can be combined and more or fewer mikados used to distribute the scent.
