Okay, this is actually more a work in progress as I can't seem to decide in which direction to go with this project… So bear with me, I'll talk you through it. Duftigmann loosely translates to 'nicely scented man' and I thought it would be fun to do something perfume related for the wine labels. A perfume is split into different layers of scent, the first one you smell is the Kopfnote ('head note'), it's usually lighter, airy and doesn't linger too long. After that the Herznote ('heart note') comes out, usually a heavier scent, the body of the perfume really that you can smell for the rest of the day. With these layers in mind, I decided to go with anatomical drawings of a brain and a heart on the bottles…
To go along with all the notes going on, I added a footnote to inform about alcohol content etc…
And this is were I got sidetracked. I thought to reinforce the perfume theme, a paper wrapping with vintage perfume bottles printed onto them would fit the concept. However, after doing it, I thought it would probably be a bit too much… Continuing that perfume bottle thought though, I decided to print the perfume bottles directly onto the wine bottles - basically disguising the wine bottle, only taking the name Herznote and Kopfnote along from the old concept. I realize that these are quite different approaches for the same theme but I can't seem to decide which way to go with this, hence it is still a work in progress and any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for having a look!
