Eastman Chemical's Glass Polymer resin was reportedly the only material able to meet the aesthetic, functional and manufacturing criteria set by perfume producer 331 International for the striking computer mouse-shaped bottle for its new Ether de lunx perfume.
Currently only available from selected French and Belgian outlets, the perfume is housed in a glass polymer container that "looks black all over", until lifted, when it lights up thanks to a combination of LEDs, light cells and batteries concealed inside.
A key requirement for the packaging material was a surface that would remain as smooth and unblemished as possible following injection moulding. The pack is produced by MBF Plastiques.
