What if?

I remember a time when Aldi still had a dirty image. Then, at the end of the 90s, the discounter's quality offensive began. At the same time, it was a time when the feuilleton caused a medium scandal in the world of educated and self-proclaimed summerliers. Pride and vanity of those who had dedicated themselves to wine were hurt, world views were shaken. What had happened? Important Sommerliers had not only failed to distinguish award-winning top wines from those of the discounter, they also rated the cheap wines better than the products of the Latour, Lafite and Rothschild houses. Don't worry, the anecdote has a purpose, it raises the title question - what if?
Let's assume that the fragrance would not be marketed by Mexx, but by Chanel and would be in a prettier (or exactly this) bottle at a significantly higher price on the shelf of a perfumery instead of in the drugstore?

How would the Parfumos evaluate the fresh opening with a pleasant basil note, which complements itself coherently with the mandarin?

Would they praise the pineapple for its fruitiness or dismiss it as too synthetic? Would they have an appreciative word left for the woody-woody base, which is still clearly perceptible after 9 hours skin close? That would be the point at which the journalist is certain that his counterpart cannot distinguish Aldi wine from Château Rothschild. The fact is, a durability rating of 4.6 is a bad joke!
Would they chalk up the fragrance that he is average? Because that's him! Just not below average. He is okay. Absolutely okay. Not a top perfume, but nowhere near as bad as he is made here
