DEMETER DANDELION REVIEWS
Fragrantica: "It's been a while since I had my bottle, but this fragrance definitely made a lasting impression on me. I grew up surrounded by dandelions. We'd sit on the lawn as kids and pick them, break stems, and blow away the flower heads to the wind. This perfume was a very realistic clone of that scent on me. Especially the green, sharp stem smell. Good for days I wanted to wear something different, on the sharp side, and green. It was definitely a perfume for the warmer weather."
Fragrantica: "This is one of my favorite Demeter fragrances. At first, all I could smell was grass, and I wasn’t too sure. The second time I tried it though – wow. I don’t really smell the flowers, but I do smell the leaves, as well as grass, and a somewhat citrusy note. Its clean and fresh, green and sharp, really lovely for spring/summer and I imagine winter too, when I need to be reminded of brighter days. This seems to hang around on my skin a bit longer than other Demeter fragrances, and on clothing – nearly all day. It also has a nice sillage on clothing. Generally, because of how short lived Demeter fragrances tend to be, I spray twice – once before I get dressed, pretty much all over my skin, and then once on my clothing. I actually thought today that this might be too powerful, but within 30 minutes it died down nicely to a clean, refreshing scent. I love this, but wish it stuck around longer, and wish I didn’t have to use so much. My favorite Demeter fragrances, I can go through a 4oz bottle in a month or less. That makes it hard to collect new ones!"
Fragrantica: "Cannot believe how great this is. Geeen milky tart yet sweet bright fresh and incredibly realistic pollen almost "bee" like quality."
Demeter: "The scent gives me those early summer feels when school is out and the entire season lies before you full of anticipation and possibility. It’s the scent of having the windows opens with a warm breeze gently moving in. It’s the feeling of having all obligations taken care of and the rest of the day is yours. Yeah, Dandelion is that good!"
Demeter: "Sweet and simple. A whiff of green, then a whiff of spring. Demeter does stay true to the scent: I am ever so pleased that it is a green scent than a perfume-y floral scent. Smells like a fistful of dandelions, stem and all."
Demeter: "This is floral and sweet right out of the bottle. But on my skin it quickly develops a stronger leafy green note with a hint of bitter, milky, sap, and rich, yellow pollen. If I layer it with a little violet and daisy, it's my great-grandma's garden when I was a kid. If I layer it with clover and thunderstorm, it's a perfect summer afternoon."
Demeter: "Wow! Definitely green, but with a definite citrus punch that brightens it up like a spring day! There are some soapy notes that soften it up, making it a summery and fresh scent! Absolutely lovely."
