For this project, I designed packaging for a home fragrance line centered around a single myth: the ancient Greek story of Hades and Persephone. The collection includes a candle, room spray, and reed diffuser, each featuring the same scent profile, cypress and pomegranate, to reflect the duality of life and death, darkness and renewal, central to the myth.
The concept draws from my background research into ancient Greek perfume making, where oils were infused with herbs and flowers through boiling and natural extraction methods. This historical foundation inspired both the scent and the overall design direction, aiming to honor the deep cultural roots of fragrance in Greek tradition.
