I'm not sure that I know of Lucini ... I'll look for it. It's hard to keep track of so many labels.
Long ago, I waved the white flag of surrender in the olive oil battle. Olive oil is, pretty much, olive oil. I pick the "best buy," from the shelf.
I don't do much "browning," in it (OO, or EVOO), as I prefer a heartier oil, with a high smoke point. Wesson canola oil is a great buy, and a good product.
I often use "OO/EVOO,", along with a bit of butter, for a beginning tenderizing of onions, and other veggies. Beyond that, I keep it for salad dressings, and "dribbles," over various dishes.

I doubt I have ever bought a disappointing EVOO. However, one should avoid buying it in a dollar store. It might not be what you think it is. I usually buy the Wal-Mart store brand. And I only use it for flavoring, not for cooking. Heat changes the flavor.

I buy Vigo because I can get it in very small bottles, I just use it on salad and bread. I used to love Trader Joe's olive oil that had a tomato taste, don't know if they still make it.

I was warned by a grocer that cheap bottles of olive oil are diluted, so you are not getting what you think, despite what the front label states. His advice was always READ the back label (ingredients) carefully.
