Brand Tone

Authoritative, expert, and premium; professional and sophisticated, mirroring the luxury quality of products. It is educational and instructional, emphasizing craftsmanship and tradition while empowering customers with knowledge.

Brand Values

• •Quality and Excellence
• •Heritage and Tradition
• •Expertise and Education
• •Preservation and Longevity

Best Practices

• •Use an Authoritative and Educational Voice: Always write from a position of expertise. Frame copy as guidance or professional advice. Use terms like "essential," "the cornerstone," and "professional-grade" to reinforce authority.
• •Highlight Heritage and Tradition: Consistently reference the brand's long history (since 1920) and French origins. This is a key differentiator and builds trust. Phrases like "A century of excellence" or "Time-honored French formulas" should be common threads.
• •Focus on Ingredients and Process: Emphasize the natural components (beeswax, mink oil, carnauba wax) and contrast them with harmful silicones or resins. This speaks to the values of quality and leather preservation.
• •Speak to the "Why," Not Just the "What": Instead of just saying a product shines shoes, explain why that shine is important—it reflects respect for the item, personal discipline, and an appreciation for quality. Connect the product to the user's values.
• •Maintain a Premium Lexicon: Use sophisticated and precise language. Words like "connoisseur," "aficionado," "glaçage," "patina," "nourish," and "preserve" align with the premium nature of the brand and its target audience. Avoid overly casual language or aggressive sales tactics.

Social Perception

Overwhelmingly positive among its target audience; viewed as the professional's choice, a worthwhile investment, highly effective, and nourishing/safe due to natural ingredients.
