Earl Grey Tea Diffuser Oil
The Scent: Our Earl Grey Tea is a blend of fine black China teas and the natural oil of bergamot, a pear-shaped citrus fruit. It is this same oil with its distinctive aroma that is at the heart of Demeter's Earl Grey Tea cologne.
The Inspiration: The legend is that a British diplomat sent as part of a trade delegation to China in 1834 by the second Earl Grey, saved the life of a mandarin's son who was drowning. The grateful mandarin gave the diplomat a recipe for a blend of tea to present to the Earl. The second Earl Grey passed it on to his tea merchant, who used the recipe to recreate the blend for the Earl's private use. The tea was so well received among the Earl's guests that they began asking where they could buy the tea. The Earl gave it his name, and the rest is history.

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.
