Results and Effectiveness

Perfume and romance, they are almost synonymous. This idea materialised this with an execution that is unlike the norm. When you think of a perfume sample, you recall a strip of paper. But this time we were able to magnify the power of a perfume and stir people's imagination with it. A new medium to sell perfume. And one that is not only alternative but that is relevant to the audience and the product.



Creative Execution

We printed one of the most beloved romances in history in perfume paper. Romeo and Juliet was printed in the actual strips of paper used to sample perfumes. And each 'book' came with a Jacomo sample so that the person could spray it over each page of the book and read this classic with the most romantic scent.



Insights, Strategy & the Idea

How can we present the intangible- the emotions that are contained within each perfume? Dozens of perfumes are launched every year. They are all very similar in approach and try to reach the same target. We needed to cut through the clutter and convey Jacomo's essence in a different way that would make it stand out in the hands of our target.
