When a customer smells a fragrance, they first view the box. That visual is usually the first impression that influences whether the customer picks up the product, lines “buy” or moves on to another brand. So, what kind of perfume box design captivates customers most? Simplicity, quality, and an appeal to emotion are the secrets to that. ## Items ### 1.
