Serpentine Comme des Garcons
Serpentine Galleries teamed up with Comme des Garçons and legendary artist Tracey Emin to create the Serpentine Fragerance. Tracey Emin’s drawing takes inspiration from a sculpture she purchased depicting a lovers’ embrace. The handwritten text for the bottle face reads: “The Grass, The Trees, The Lake, And You”. The bottle text is printed in luminous silver and the artwork for the packaging slip cover is hot foil stamped in bright silver. The packaging comprises a simple square bottle with a depth half its height and a face left blank for an artist’s work. The box also features a removable slip cover, the surface of which can be decorated by an artist. The result is a fresh, light, yet deceivingly complex, unisex scent composed of grass, leaves, pollen (galbanum, iris leaf), oxygene (aldehyde, ozone), asphalt (black musks, nutmeg), labdanum and smoked cedar with a little bit of pollution (benzoin, juniper wood, gaïac wood).
