Linen Cologne Spray
The Scent: Demeter's Linen is exactly what you expect - clean, crisp, sheer, transparent, and oh, so lovely. Think of the best crisp, linen sheets you ever experienced on a warm summer's eve. That is the experience we sought to capture here.
The Inspiration: Linen is actually one of the oldest textiles in the world, made through a complex and laborious process from flax. Linen was sometimes used as currency in ancient Egypt. Egyptian mummies were wrapped in linen as a symbol of light and purity, and as a display of wealth.
Baby Powder Cologne Spray
The Scent: As clean and as fresh as it gets, like the proverbial freshly powdered baby’s behind. Let Demeter’s Baby Powder takes you on a journey through the pleasures, the innocence and the scents of childhood.
The Story: In the 1890’s, Italian talc was mixed with plasters, to reduce irritation. Soon customers were asking for more talc. Shortly thereafter, that scented talc was being sold as baby powder, creating the link in our minds between the scent of baby powder and fresh cleanliness. It is that fresh scent that is the inspiration for Demeter’s Baby Powder.
