Freshly ironed and per wool washed C&A shirt for 'n Zwanni

The price-performance ratio.

In my opinion, there is absolutely no consumer good that can be ignored, regardless of whether it covers a basic or a luxury need. Of course, one can recognize gradations, especially in the cosmetics or even perfume sector, which can be described as pure luxury. The purchase of most supermarket own brands can be perfectly justified with the PLV, at the latest since their continuously good results in the Stiftung Warentest and other consumer comparisons with the expensive advertising brands.

In the case of perfumes, this is much more difficult without directly questioning the purchase of a perfume itself ("Why not just a deodorant?"). Like a textile garment, perfumes are dependent on the wearer's status, expression, taste and therefore in value (unlike a pound of potatoes). Just because one perfume costs twice as much as another, it doesn't have to be twice as good for everyone. For some, a certain independent variation is enough to justify the price premium, for others, all the less.

What exactly does this have to do with white Lalique? Because I bought it more than any other perfume so far, mainly because of the price. I've had good experience with Encre Noir Sport and I can get 125ml for under 20€? Add it to your shopping cart. If it's half as good as L'Homme Ideal Cologne or The Dreamer, it's already affordable, I thought
Very clear and very clean it begins, the lemon leaf with a tendency to lemon balm dominates and remains. The association of fresh laundry hovers above everything without becoming obtrusive. The light notes of pepper and cedar wood also prevent the fragrance from becoming too sweet and from having a certain balance.

Shelf life, silage and the fragrance and its development in general are very tidy throughout. And this at an excellent price. I compare this result with a C&A shirt (with this association I'm probably not the first one here, as I just realised). Doesn't pull any trees when it comes to innovation and independence, but neither does it want to, because you know that your strengths lie elsewhere, namely in your proven track record. Anything but junk, but quality of upper middle class, at a SSV price. A safe choice for the day, the summer, the office. Bright and fresh, a classic "sure thing" for me.

The fact that the brand Lalique enjoys great popularity is not surprising to me when such a decent quality is offered at such prices, which is why I don't have to take up the cudgels for the brand here anymore.
