Fragrance boxes: choosing lustre and handfeel
Compare the surfaces of HALO, CHROMA, SOFTSKIN and PEARLSKIN, then use full-size wrapped corners to review seams, turned edges and foil details.
A fragrance box does not need pearlescence, texture, soft touch and metallic decoration in equal measure. Choose a main material characteristic, then review how it carries across the lid, base and insert. A clear hierarchy can make the brand easier to recognise.
HALO offers a white pearlescent direction. CHROMA combines colour and pearlescence. SOFTSKIN focuses on a low-reflection surface and handfeel, while PEARLSKIN brings pearlescence and touch together. Compare physical samples under the same light. A phone photograph is not an approved physical colour or surface reference.
Use the candidate paper to make a full-size corner trial. Examine the seam, turned edge and foil-stamped mark. If the bottle or insert contacts the paper, check the actual contact conditions as part of the prototype. Confirm appearance and construction before finalising quantities, specifications and timing. A material name cannot replace project validation.
