South Korean motion designer Shin Hansol’s latest personal project casts the elegant bottle of Dior’s Homme Eau de Toilette Cologne as a type of elusive talisman in this carefully choreographed and lovingly lit CG work.

Shin Hansol: “Dior Homme Eau de Toilette is born from untreated wood. It then passes through woody mid-notes, infused with musk and ambergris, before arriving at the base notes. The overall atmosphere is expressed as soft yet intense, inviting sensuality. Combining contrasting atmospheres, it aims to deliver an ironic yet sophisticated feel.”
