Low Cost Perfume for the Third World
CHANEL 3rd is a low cost alternative to CHANEL No. 5. Unfortunately, it's just a concept from The Onion, but the idea is so good, it may inspire someone's creativity.
Implications - The faux perfume comes in a yellow plastic container which almost looks as if its contents contain dishwashing fluid. Mind you, the cap does add a little sparkle and shine to the whole hoax.
The Onion is clearly mocking the ultra luxury (and expensive) brand that is Chanel -- a great way to go viral in a market that has taken to resenting high-cost brands since the recession hit. Whether you're a Chanel fan or not, this is definitely a worthwhile parody to take a look at.
