The Parisian company KENZO created these unique totem pole bottles to contain the brand’s new perfume, which is appropriately title 'Totem.' There are three different scents that have been specially created to suit both men and women.
The bottles and the logo were designed by Nendo, which is a Japanese-based studio. Each bottle is made using purple material that is so dark it almost looks black. Each totem pole bottle is then differentiated through the use of colorful symbols. The yellow symbol represents the woody citrus flavor, the orange represents a woody floral scent and the blue represents the woody fruity aroma.
Totem is made for both men and women, which is a reflection of the bottle’s design. The idea that these poles bring people together is a representation of the versatile unisex fragrances.
