Billie Eilish Fragrances

High Traffic Only

Praella performed a soft launch of the website to ensure stable traffic processing. A signup page was released, and a couple hundred thousand sessions were logged in a couple of hours.

Once the perfume was released, it took only 30 minutes for it to sell out.
Since the product sold out quickly, more than 100k customers subscribed to the “Back To Stock” notifications. More than 1 million sessions were recorded during the launch day. The second flash sale resulted in the perfume selling out again within just one hour.
It is important to note that these events went through without any issues despite an enormous amount of traffic.

It is important to note that with many limited-release product launches, the biggest hurdle proves to be the checkout process. This was not the case for Billie Eilish Fragrances since the Praella team utilized Shopify Plus’ Checkout Queue in order to mitigate risks at checkout.

One Customer - One Bottle

Praella created a custom fraud control system to ensure this functionality, which allowed one perfume bottle per user. The limitation, of course, was not permanent, and after the expiration date of the mentioned limitation, the customer could purchase the product again.

Countdown and Order Tracking

Integrating custom functionalities into their website was done to provide customers with a one-of-a-kind user experience. Before the launch of the product, a special countdown page was created. An Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) was introduced, allowing a seamless data transmission. Praella has also implemented an FTP connection that provides the customers with the order tracking numbers.

3D Bottle Model

Considering the high importance of the custom-made perfume bottle and the idea of creating one of a kind website experience, the Praella team decided to challenge themselves by implementing a never before seen solution for the product showcase. Praella’s developers created a sleek animated 3D render of the scroll of the perfume bottle by synchronizing every frame to the user’s scroll position, which served as the custom navigator through the page. To help strike the balance of great experience and following this, focused landing pages were created, filled with various HD videos and eye-catching animations, all without compromising page responsiveness.
