Regia Dario Frattaruolo Design
The gentian liqueur was born from the desire to recover an ancient 18th-century recipe from a remote Balkan monastery. Mystery and history blend around this recipe in a unique way that has its roots in the figures of Pliny and King Gentius. The packaging designed for the liqueur is meticulously detailed, with a combination of elements that give the whole a unique and harmonious character. Visually, it is rich in geometries, stylized figures, and lettering that blend together, evoking the concept of fusion and mixture inherent to the nature of the liqueur. At the center of the design, wavy and sinuous shapes, intertwined with gentian flowers, play with different shades of black and gray, creating a pleasing contrast with the gold foils.
