While shopping is a mission, for men.
In accordance with new Wharton research, they are out to buy a targeted item and flee the store as quickly as possible.
Whenever making a purchase, they like to glide up glass escalators past a grand piano, or spray a perfume sample on themselves on their way to. More often than not, those influences seem to come from whatever’s hot in pop culture, fashion can be influenced from loads of different places.
