Chapter 366
"Thank you," Lily replied politely.
"However, I have some reservations about your remarks just now. " Changing the topic, he
continued, "When you said that the brand doesn't affect you, do you really think so, or do you
just say that rhetorically because you can't tell the difference?"
Without waiting for her answer, he added, "Of course, in any case, your answer sheet is indeed
more accurate than the rest. You are still number one regardless, that's for sure."
This was why he held her back, as he did not want to ask this aloud.
"To be honest, we're both on the same boat. I don't quite agree with the question you asked. In fact, the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtquestion itself is a paradox," Lily wasn't offended as she calmly explained her side.
"Oh?" On the other hand, Wesley seemed a little insulted as he raised his eyebrow.
Obviously, he did not take her words seriously, thinking it was just a cover-up for her mistake. As a
matter of fact, Wesley was unhappy with the results of this competition. He had initially planned to
select one of his disciples as the winner, but they did not perform as well as he thought they would.
Although Lily had won first place, his prejudice was so strong that he didn't think that she was capable
of achieving anything in this industry.
"Was the reason behind your question to get us to focus on the product itself, regardless of the brand
or any other external factors?" she questioned.
Upon hearing that question, Wesley paused for a moment before he nodded slightly. He couldn't deny
that this was exactly his
thought process at that time.
A perfumer should pay more attention to the value of the perfume itself. People focused on brand
names more often than not. Once a scent is labeled with a renowned brand, it would blow up and
be sold at extremely high prices. On the other hand, newcomers would find it hard to break through
this scene.
Wesley felt that this mindset should be changed and that brands should not easily sway people.
"Yet, you deliberately labeled the bottle with your name while instructing us to ignore who the
perfumer was. I guess it's safe to say that you're placing too much importance on the
influence of the brand's reputation on the product. You're trying to use your name to distract
us while telling us not to be blinded by brands. Isn't that very contradictory in itself?" Lily
asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTo her surprise, Wesley shook his head. "You wouldn't have noticed this if you only focused
on fragrance. You managed to do that, didn't you?" Although he was reluctant to admit this, it
was true.
Lily laughed and said, "That's not the case. I'm just saying that whoever the perfumer is
shouldn't influence the perfume itself, but that doesn't mean that I won't think about who
created the perfume. The product and the creator are inseparable. Being perfumers, although
we create all sorts of fragrances, each with a uniqueness of its own, the personal touch of the
perfumers is what gives the scent its name."
Initially, Wesley disapproved of what she said and wanted to object. Later, as he listened, he
slowly began to straighten up, nodding slightly as she continued. His perspective of her
began to change.
Looking at Lily with great interest, he said, "It seems like you're pretty eloquent. Can you
guess who this perfume belongs to?"
