Absolut introduces its latest limited edition bottle, Absolut Facet, a blue bottle featuring an asymmetrical design. The round edges of the Facet bottle have been cut into like a gem, creating a number of faces that catch the light in unique ways, symbolizing the many directions #AbsolutNights can take you.
The aesthetic is reminiscent of spontaneous moments of nightlife magic, highlighting that the best nights happen out of the blue. Following the success of last year’s Absolut Electrik twin release in metallic blue and silver, Absolut Facet follows the brands much anticipated tradition of releasing uniquely designed end of year limited editions. Previous limited editions have included Absolut Warhol which transformed Andy Warhol’s original Absolut painting onto the shape of the bottle and Absolut Unique which featured four million uniquely designed bottles.
To help online users create their own unexpected #AbsolutNights at home, the brand has collaborated with Spotify to develop a digital platform called Discovr. The service creates unexpected playlists based on the combined music tastes of friends and recommends Absolut drinks inspired by the tunes so friends can create their own #AbsolutNights at home.
