• Full possession of the territory of fragrance

• Feminine, owns a vein of sensuality

• Playful and hedonistic dimension

• Conveys emotionalbenefit: self-indulgence

• Keeps on evolving

• Positioning: “The little touch of luxury for me and my laundry”

SOURCE: Research International – July 2005, Neuromarketing workshop FFI – July 2008

• Strongly rooted in the territory of softness

• “The softness child”, ”the softness of a cuddle toy”

• Synonymous with tradition and familiarity

• Static, more old-fashioned

• Guaranty of performance and providing intense and alluring fragrances

• Innovative, playful and easy personality.

• Less authorititativepersonality, that does not generate reliability

• Playful, modern, dynamic, colourful, extrovert

● Sometimes consumers bored from greasy effect of softeners on garments (because they enter in action at the end of the washingcycle).

WHY?

● Often Softeners have a low intense and short lasting perfume.

● Some softeners are not perceived as very natural: consumers fear about their aggressiveness to skin and tissues.

● Fragrance is the most “exciting” and dynamic component of the product, which allows for great

variability and a wide range of choice for consumers.

“… softness is more or less the same, but with fragrance you can really satisfy your whims… I love trying out new ones all the time!”

“… by now we all know it softens, even the name says that, it’s something we take for granted!”

● Olfactory pleasure is the first value associated to

softeners. It is both a functional and an emotional benefit.

and while dosing the product.

● The long-lastingness of fragrance on garments is an indicator of softener quality.

● The persistence of fragrance ensures the continuation of the individual pleasure and of self-confidence in social contexts

“… in general the longer the fragrance lasts, the better the brand and specific product you are using!”

“… usually the low-cost brands won’t keep the scent for long, but we all know, their quality is inferior!”

● A weaker persistence is a sign that reverberates negatively on the perception of product quality and usually gives rise to an impression of cheapness

Page 37: Lancio di una nuova categoria di prodotto il caso vernel cristalli

The physical shape of crystals is considered new and definitely innovative for the world of laundry, but familiar at the same time (the

first recollection is of bath salts).

Crystals are able to transmit a potential emollient/moisturising effect when they dissolve in the water and penetrate the fabrics.

Crystals vehiculate the idea of naturalness: a more natural perfume and softness.

The physical shape of crystals has an evocative and emotional powerstrongly linked with the promise of freshness: a superior freshness,

meant as pleasantness and persistence

“Vernel Crystals” have the pureness of the simple crystal and share with it the idea of uncontaminated cleanness. On top, thanks to Vernel’s

hedonistic positioning, they are more emotionally involving.

Crystals vehiculate preciousness and refinement, enhanced by an effect of brightness and lightness, very coherent with the premium

positioning desired by Vernel.

Where to dose

PRODUCT HAS TO WORK BOTH VIA THE DRUM AND THE DETERGENT COMPARTMENT

• To maintain the perfume and softness effects for longer (product is in direct contact with garments for a longer time)

• To avoid greasy effects due to not complete rinsing (at the last washing cycle)

Consumers would like to let the crystals work since the beginning of the washing cycle

How to dose / Which Bottle

• Elegant, Feminine, sinuous, refined and precious pack SHELF IMPACT

• Easy to handle and versatile.• Allows both a “normal” pouring into the drawer of the

washing machine and inside the drum.• Thanks to the doser ball, the product is dosed in the exact

quantity, without product waste and with perfect cleanliness.

THE MOST PROPER MECHANISM IS “AMANN” BOTTLE WITH A DOUBLE CAP (“simple” cap + semi-spherical measuring cap)

Source: Focus Groups Vernel Cristalli, Research International, March 2005

Page 45: Lancio di una nuova categoria di prodotto il caso vernel cristalli

Superior Performance

Thanks to their high solubility Vernel Crystals guarantee a perfect and graduated release of perfume at contact with laundry.

In each crystal the quantity of perfume is 7 times higher than in actual liquid softeners.

Crystals’ perfume persists longer on dried laundry.

Softener agents included in Crystals release a more natural softeness.

Crystals act from the beginning of the washing cycle eliminatingthe risk of greasiness due to uncomplete rinsing.
