Background
A fragrance content creator wanted to upgrade from single-unit sales to a 6-bottle gift bundle to increase average order value and gift-scenario conversion. The core challenge: design a package that could display 6 fragrance bottles at once while ensuring safety during cross-border shipping.
Challenges
- 6 fragrance bottles in one package required a custom insert with individual slots
- Previous shipping damage rate exceeded 5% — seriously impacting margins
- Shifting from single units to gift bundles required premium unboxing experience
- Sales rhythm tied to holiday/promotion cycles — delivery could not slip
Solution
Bejan's design team created a tailor-made 6-bottle fragrance gift box:
- Custom EVA insert + positioning structure: Each bottle in an individual slot to prevent collision; drop-test verified
- Two-round insert iteration: Final version reduced damage rate to under 1%
- Magnetic rigid box: Foil stamping + specialty paper for luxury gift perception
- DDP shipping: Door-to-door delivery with all customs handled by Bejan
Results
- 🚀Sales increased 600% — from single-unit to gift bundle model
- 📦Shipping damage rate dropped from 5%+ to under 1%
- 💰Average order value significantly increased
- 🔄Client replicated the 6-bottle format across other fragrance lines
Key Takeaway:Packaging design is a sales tool, not just a protective container. The 6-bottle insert solved both the engineering problem (damage <1%) and the business problem (600% sales increase). For gift-oriented categories, the unboxing experience and bundle structure are the core levers for increasing AOV.
