Louis Vuitton Parfums Crafts a Yayoi Kusama Fragrance Series
Featuring the house’s signature Spell on You, L’Immensité, and Attrape-Rêve bottles.
Louis Vuitton Parfums has unveiled three new perfume bottles as part of its ongoing collaboration with Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, dressing its iconic fragrances including Spell on You, L’Immensité, and Attrape-Rêve, in the artist’s signature polka dot motifs.
Originally designed by Marc Newson, the Louis Vuitton bottles have now been transformed into collector’s pieces with L’Immensité reminiscent of the stainless orbs from Kusama’s Narcissus Garden installation, Spell On You tinted pink with the artist’s signature array of densely-populated red dots, and Attrape-Rêve featuring a multicolor array of paint splotches.
“A polka-dot has the form of the sun, which is a symbol of the energy of the whole world and our living life, and also the form of the moon, which is calm. Round, soft, colorful, senseless and unknowing. Polka-dots become movement. Polka dots are a way to infinity,” Kusama once said of the motifs.
Fragrance profiles range from fruity hits of ginger and grapefruit for L’Immensité and flowery hints of iris pallida and rose for Spell on You to sweet aromas of peonies and raw cocoa powder for Attrape-Rêves.
Drop 1 of the Yayoi Kusama x Louis Vuitton fragrance collection is now available in stores while Drop 2 which has yet to be revealed is arriving on March 31. Prices range from €320 EUR (approximately $340 USD) for the 100ml bottle to €670 EUR (approximately $711 USD) for the Travel Case package.
