Shape of a Scent

The scent that my group experienced was sharp but pleasant, appearing to linger softly before reaching its strongest scent. We believed this to contain pine and citrus-like ingredients with the target market of older women; however it was revealed to have been intended to be a "father and son" colgone.

Below are photographs of my take on the implications of the scent's shape and texture in the form of a bottle like sculpture constructed with plastacine.







I created a very bulbous base, round and wide to represent the initial bluntness of the smell. As it progressed upwards it trails away to a point, reflecting the sharp finale of the cologne. The texture was kept as smooth as I could muster because the scent itself, while powerful and "loudly-spoken", remained similarly smooth and pleasant. The overall organic shape and leaf like shadows along the sculpture were utilised in an attempt to portray the organic freshness of the scent.
