Fragrance and backgammon share the stage for Lacoste Original influencer kit

Fragrance and backgammon share the stage for Lacoste Original influencer kit
The influencer kit developed for the launch of Interparfums’ Lacoste Original fragrance includes a backgammon set. Made of recycled cardboard, the pack was designed by France’s Bemad.

How to communicate the launch of a new fragrance in a playful and inspiring way? For the release of Lacoste Original, the first Lacoste scent under new licensee Interparfums, the brand sent out an influencer kit with a point of difference. As well as containing the fragrance, it doubles as a backgammon set.

Designed by Bemad and produced by LPF Groupe, the collector’s edition coffret is made of recycled cardboard. It is sheathed in embossed fabric paper that displays a subtle silhouette of the fragrance bottle. Employing a friction closure avoids the use of magnets.

The coffret includes backgammon playing pieces and dice, as well as pin badges, patches, a cotton pouch and a book on brand Founder René Lacoste.

1980s nostalgia


Offering its dose of 80s nostalgia when backgammon had its heyday, this kind of design could prove a source of inspiration going forward. “Games are new terrain for brands, who want to go beyond packaging design to create a more playful experience for consumers,” highlights Bemad.
