The trail of art in motion

The momentum of the hand tracing a thought onto paper, the profound aromas of black ink... Ink Mark draws inspiration from Chinese calligraphy, the art of line and spirit. In Shanghai, a city in perpetual motion where ancient traditions dialogue with urban energy, Jacques Cavallier Belletrud captured the force of a contemporary expression, that of ephemeral calligraphy, a pavement art comprised of poems traced out in water. Born of a wood slowly reduced to soot through an artisanal process, Chinese ink inspired a woody fragrance of great intensity. Its depth is found in the warm, creamy sandalwood that structures the composition. By contrast, white incense brings a pure, mineral touch. Amber notes gradually prolong movement, creating a distinctive trail.

Ink Mark is part of Louis Vuitton’s Perfumes of the World Collection, which continues its exploration of cultures and beauty with a new chapter: a trio of fragrances inspired by the Chinese art of living. Through three creations, the House extends an invitation to discover the rituals, craftsmanship and raw materials that nourish the spirit of travel. For the occasion, the silhouette of the apothecary-style bottle designed by Marc Newson meets the Chinese snuff bottle, an historic art object of timeless refinement. This small bottle, at once functional and precious, resonates with the tradition of the House that, since 1854, has brought beauty and utility together in iconic travel objects. The bottle is made of opalescent glass with changing reflections and crowned with a lacquered cap in deep hues. This chromatic pairing reflects the unique identity of each perfume.

The bottle is refillable in stores equipped with a perfume fountain.
