Hennessy XO and Marc Newson reunite at Changi

Moët Hennessy has joined forces with DFS Group and Singapore Changi Airport for a second time to launch a new Hennessy X.O 2018 limited edition decanter by designer Marc Newson.

The decanter, which features a transparent gift box, is exclusive to the travel retailer at Changi,  ahead of its worldwide premier in July.

Departing travellers can delve into the world of Hennessy X.O and Marc Newson in DFS outlets across the terminals and secure one of the decanters.

In addition they can scan a QR code on the product to view an immersive video and interact virtually with Marc Newson himself.

RE-INTERPRETED BOTTLING

In crafting the bottle for the limited edition, Newson blends subtle gold with hues of rose to create a ‘dynamic, steamlined variation on the decanter’s iconic shape that breaks with conventions and gives it a wholly unexpected twist’.

The LVMH wines and spirits house first collaborated with DFS and Changi for the iconic Hennessy X.O Decanter in 2017.

Moët Hennessy Managing Director Travel Retail Asia Pacific Vanessa Widmann, commented: “We are very excited to partner with DFS Group and Changi Airport for a second time in a row to build on the successful Limited Edition launch of 2017 and introduce this year’s Hennessy X.O Limited Edition by Marc Newson. With its impactful design, I strongly believe that the limited edition makes for the perfect gift for travellers.”
