How one launch carried a season.

How one launch carried a season.

Lumene Copenhagen arrived with one hero product, a quiet UK profile and a six-month window. This is how a single launch became a season of coverage โ€” and what we would repeat.

A long table set for the Lumene Copenhagen press launch masterclass, with mirrors, skincare and gift bags at each place.

The brief

The brief

Lumeneโ€™s UK team needed the launch to do more than launch. Awareness was concentrated in Denmark; the UK press knew the category, not the name. The brief was simple to say and hard to do: make the titles their customers already read treat one product as the story of the season.

What we did

What we did

We built the entire season around the hero product. One press strategy, one narrative, staged three times โ€” preview, launch, and a reactive tail. Long-lead titles were briefed in person months out; short-lead and digital got same-day angles tied to what was already in the news. The press office answered everything the day it arrived.

What changed

What changed

Coverage compounded instead of spiking. By month three, editors were coming to us; by month six the hero product had sold through and the brand name no longer needed the category to explain it.
