Baldessarini launch Limited Edition Del Mar bottle
Baldessarini have launched a limited edition bottle for its Del Mar fragrance. The bottle was designed by FiFi Award designer Denis Boudard of QSLD.

The design of Del Mar Prestige is enhanced by the addition of Zamac, a material used in yacht construction. The dominant flacon weighs over 700 grams, making it one of the world’s heaviest bottles.

The strong bottle design, along with material selection and sheer weight, add to the premium and exclusive image of this one of a kind bottle. Special processing techniques were used for this unique hand crafted flacon.

The objective for this bottle design was to create something even more premium than was achieved with the original Del Mar fragrance bottle, designed by Denis Boudard.

The original Del Mar bottle focused on the strong image of the horizon and incorporated the ever-present nautical inspiration of the Baldessarini brand. Boudard felt inspired by all that Baldessarini stands for and ultimately transferred that image into bottle form.

“Baldessarini is the quintessential premium men’s fragrance. I wanted to create a design that reflected this feeling of haute couture, which the Baldessarini line embodies. The elite collector’s item has an unrivaled desirability, placing Baldessarini Del Mar Prestige in a class of its own” says Boudard.
