Reflecting the natural product within, [Petal & Leaf](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oura-ring-4-ceramic) Holistic Aromatics packaging calls to mind the south of [France](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pickle-nails-club) in spring, where the air is filled with the perfume of flowers and the colors of the season bloom in a demure way. Instead of featuring flat printing on each box, Petal & Leaf Holistic Aromatics packaging features a textured imprinting to provide a multi-sensory experience instead of just focusing on the way the product smells.

Designed by Officina in collaboration with Petra Cuschieri, Petal & Leaf Holistic Aromatics packaging features three words on the side of each to reflect the product within; this approach helps attach a feeling to the product and help us to identify how it should be used.
