[edit] Other Uses of Évian
The brand's logo has been parodied many times both on a positive or negative aspect. For example, in some parts of England logos have been made with Evian becoming Naive (Evian in reverse) while the French use the logo ironically as propaganda for Human Rights replacing ėvian with ėgalitė (equality) and changing the tagline Eau Minérale Naturelle (Natural Spring Water) for Une Condition Naturelle (A Natural Condition).
Ordering this brand of mineral water in hotels usually means paying high charges for it, since it is deemed a premium import product. For example, a 330cl bottle at the Raffles Hotel in Singapore costs SGD7.40(inclusive of taxes), which is about USD5.
