Wheaton produced the 90 ml and 30 ml decorated glass bottles for Just Cavalli’s Give Me Magic fragrance line, developed under license by Interparfums Italia. The bottles feature a unique textured coating, designed to act as a sensory canvas that hints at the scent before it’s opened.
The women’s bottle uses a rich purple, while the men’s comes in translucent green; both employ a droplet-effect texture described as a “gradient concrete” finish that shifts from opaque to translucent. A neon-toned screen print adds bold chromatic contrast, and the work was developed by Wheaton’s in-house innovation hub Grupo Experimento.
The result makes the vessel itself a central aspect of the product experience, reinforcing brand storytelling and shelf impact for consumers who value tactile, design-forward packaging. It signals a broader trend toward personalized, decorative glass as a competitive differentiator in perfumery.

What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Decorative Glass Packaging
- Elevated ornamental bottle surfaces transform containers into brand-centric artifacts that can shift purchase decisions and premium positioning.
- Sensory-first Packaging
- Tactile coatings and visual gradients introduce multi-sensory cues that can substitute for or augment scent discovery prior to product use.
- In-house Innovation Hubs
- Internal design labs enable rapid prototyping of bespoke finishes and printing techniques that can shorten time-to-market for differentiated packaging.
Sectors Adopting This
- Perfume and Fragrance
- Fragrance brands face the chance to make the vessel as communicative as the scent, reshaping storytelling and perceived value on shelf.
- Luxury Goods and Retail
- High-end retailers can leverage decorative containers as collectible objects that alter inventory strategies and customer lifetime engagement.
- Glass Manufacturing and Materials
- Specialized glassmakers and coating chemists are positioned to commercialize novel textured finishes and chromatic printing processes that redefine standard production offerings.
