Advertising / Public Relations | | Italian term or phrase: non esibito | I would appreciate some help or ideas for this term in context:
Il flacone riprende le caratteristiche dell'Eau de Parfum, impreziosito dalla serigrafia e personalizzato dall "m" in rilievo sul tappo bianco, dalla considtenza e peso adatti ad un prodotto di lusso non esibito.
Thank you very much and enjoy the weekend! |

"non esibito" means you don't show it off, so you can say "understated"

it seems that "understated luxury" is something quite cool at the moment:

The affluent seek an understated look of quality that can be decoded by others like themselves, who are also early adopters of exclusive luxury products. They require understated visual signals that spell not just luxury, but discreet luxury. The most obvious signal is not of a logo plastered all over a product, but of superb quality of materials and the highest standard of workmanship.
the term is used even to sell cars:
