About Bastien

Packaging & Materials Development Engineer | Luxury Expert (Perfumes, Skincare, Cosmetics)


With a dual background in Mechanical Engineering (CNAM) and an excellent track record with top luxury houses (Dior, Chanel, Guerlain), I support brands and design agencies in the development of their packaging products, from concept to market launch.

What I bring to your projects:


360° Packaging Project Management: Management of the Perfume, Makeup, and Skincare lines for iconic franchises (J'adore, N°5, L'Art et la Matière).

Engineering & Industrialization: Technical design (CAD: SolidWorks, Catia), management of reproducibility, and supplier security.

Materials & Innovation Expertise: Development of complex parts (Caps, bottles, leather, silk, PU accessories) and transition to eco-design (elimination of styrene, replacement of Zamac).

Cross-functional Interface: Translating Marketing needs into technical solutions while respecting aesthetic, cost, and deadline constraints.

Why work with me?


My experience at Stellantis (PSA/Opel) provided me with industrial rigor and mastery of technical testing (climatic, scratch, repeatability), which I now apply to the demands of luxury.

Proactive, creative, and rigorous, I quickly integrate into your teams to secure your launches and innovate on your future packaging.
