The recently launched refillable bottle of Dries Van Noten Eau de Parfum is awarded in the category of best perfume bottle at the prestigious Formes De Luxe awards in October 2022. This attractive glass bottle is manufactured at Stoelzle Masnières Parfumerie and consists of ten shells on the bottom of the bottle, four different materials (porcelain, plastic, wood, metal) and two types of lacquering (eight classic and two Quali Glass Coat 2.0, an exclusive STO ecological powder coating).
A first of its kind for Stoelzle, the innovative features involve the development of ten products at once; a complete, multi-material product line with the need to adapt the gluing process to account for dimensional differences, between shell and bottle, depending on the material. Each of the ten bottles requires a different bonding system, which is a first for Stoelzle in combining so many materials at once.
Dries Van Noten's collectible bottle also offers a unique unscrewing system, with a mesh inside so that the closing mechanism is invisible. A special key is included with the refill bottle to unlock the pump, as well as a funnel for easy filling.
The innovative bottles are refillable and reusable, which allows them to be transformed into soliflore and to become real objects of art. The bottles can also be used as perfume diffusers.
The creative director of the brand that bears his name, Dries Van Noten, was inspired by his passion for flowers and gardening to come up with a concept for the bottles. This inspiration led him to team up with leading international perfumers who interpreted different aspects of the brand's unique character.
The brand has entrusted Stoelzle Masnières with the exclusive production of the glass and decoration of these refillable bottles, which, like the world of Dries Van Noten, have a striking visual appeal.
For Dries Van Noten Beauty, integrity and sustainability are the basis of everything that is developed.
All their products are designed to be refillable and have a lower impact on the environment. As for the production of the bottles, they contain 11.6 % of recycled industrial glass (PCR glass). In addition, two of the bottles in the line are powdered with Stoelzle's exclusive Quali Glass Coat 2.0 decoration technique, following an eco-friendly approach.
Dries Van Noten's beautiful bottles can be seen in ten variations of designs, eight of which are lacquered: Jardin de l'Orangerie, Neon Garden, Rosa Carnivora, Cannabis Patchouli, Voodoo Chile, Rock the Myrrh, Fleur du Mal, Silk Malaquais; and two are powdered (STO's exclusive Quali Glass Coat 2.0 process): Raving Rose and Santal Greenery.
The Stoelzle team is proud to have been recognized as best in class at the Formes De Luxe luxury packaging innovation awards.
