INSPIRATION:
From the late 18th to mid 19th century the barbershop was not just a place for gentlemen to procure a haircut or a shave. It was a space where fraternities were formed. The Pompadour was envisioned to capture that unique experience of going to a classic English barbershop.
The Pompadour is the gentlemans pocket companion. It is a fragrance that reminds him of a time when men were afforded a luxurious den of sorts.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Box – Have a seat on the barber chair.
Inspired by barbershop checkered floor opening leather box feels like seating on barber chair.
The Bottle – The memory of walking into the barber shop.
Inspired by the classic barber pole the Pompadour comes in a clear glass cylinder featuring vertical grooves and true to an actual barber pole the red and white and blue helix rotates as the bottle is unscrewed open.
The Sheet – Share today topic.
Designed as old style newspaper containing product information and profile. A serif font makes it feel authentic to an actual newspaper.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
The product is luxurious and sophisticated with a premium pricing. Hence the core target consumers are the sophisticated male white collars aged 35 and above, and currently based in Tier 1 cities in China. They continuously seek experiences that will help project them as being sophisticated and in the know.
From our research on this segment we found that this group of gentlemen like going to the barbershop to have their hair fixed.
Since the launch of The Pompadour into the market. The brand had received high publicity and attention from social KOLs and category product reviewers.
Multiple high end barbershops have also knocked on the brand owners door to seek collaboration with offers to display and feature the product within their retail store.
CHALLENGE:
The brand owner wanted to launch a fragrance brand that will capture a niche market of professional white collars who only want to have the best for themselves.
Hence, we created a luxurious high end product with a discerning product name (Pompadour) that not only befits these connoisseurs but a product packaging (bottle and outerbox) that delivers a unique brand experience to our consumers.
