Artist Yinka Ilori unveils exclusive Courvoisier VSOP bottle design at Selfridges London
Discover the Selfridges London pop-up celebrating Yinka Ilori's limited edition Courvoisier VSOP bottle.
In a radiant fusion of art and luxury, British-Nigerian artist Yinka Ilori and Maison Courvoisier, the esteemed Cognac House, have unveiled a limited-edition bottle design. As the brand's 'Ambassador of Joy' , Ilori drew inspiration from the picturesque allure of Jarnac, France, translating the essence of a sun-kissed summer day into an exquisite Courvoisier VSOP bottle design.
This masterpiece, adorned with four ombré colours, takes centre stage at Selfridges London's Wonder Room, where there is a brand-new popup to celebrate the venture. The Wonder Room at Selfridges London has undergone a transformation, showcasing Ilori's vibrant palette alongside the limited-edition Courvoisier VSOP bottles. Visitors are invited not only to admire the visual splendour of the bottles but also to indulge in a trio of bespoke Courvoisier VSOP cognac cocktails, thoughtfully crafted to complement the nuanced flavours of the spirit. These cocktails are accompanied by unique marshmallows from The Marshmallowist that perfectly complement the cocktails.
Limited to a global run of just 1000 bottles and priced at £200, this collector's gem beautifully represents the craftsmanship and creative energy of both Ilori and Maison Courvoisier. Exclusively, only 400 bottles are available at Selfridges London. The Wonder Room pop-up is live at Selfridges for three weeks, offering a special chance to dive into the world of Courvoisier and Yinka Ilori while embracing the authentic French 'joie de vivre'.
