Mary Parfum’s branding was implemented over a decade ago. Even though, the company has grown so far, its appearance stayed the same.

The rebranding project started with understanding the client and the customers. A debateful selection of concepts followed, as a result we stoped on a combination of symbols intertwined with the colors that reprpesent the company.

Challenge

Our challenge was to create a new branding which should represent the heritage. At the same time, the new brand should be able to communicate the freshness and modernity of the company. The main challenge was to emphasize the nobility of the brands represented by the company, avoiding "hard" touch. Minimalism and prominence may seem ununitable, and this is what triggered our team to find the best combination, thus the solution for the client.

Solution

We have sustained the color palette used in the previous logo adding some modern touch. Four key symbols were introduced, which are intertwined with the letters of the company’s name. The "royal", "feminine", "accessible" and "masculine" ideas are also presented in their corresponding colors, interleaved in the title. Capitalization emphasizes lightness and a modern approach. The Armenian version of the logo also incorporates the same approaches and ideas. The overall branding is implemented with the same ideological base of color and symbol combination.
