“…Over the centuries, luxury products have been associated with outstanding quality, brand heritage, master craftsmanship, high price, uniqueness, polysensuality, and scarcity [Vigneron and Johnson, 1999;Phau and Prendergast, 2000;O'Cass and Frost, 2002;Okonkwo, 2007;Kapferer and Bastien, 2009]. Superfluous, yet desired, luxury products can bring pleasure, increase self-confidence, and improve social status [Berry, 1994;Dubois and Paternault, 1997;Wong et al, 1999;Tsai, 2005;Becker et al, 2018].
