Rain Body Lotion
The Scent: Rain is one of the cleanest, and most delicate, fragrances in the Library-sweet, fresh, with the incredibly powerful smell of fresh rain. Why so powerful? Some believe there a deep-seated link between the smell of rain and the expectation of growth that drives those visceral feelings. But whatever the basis, the power of the scent of Rain is undeniable.
The Inspiration: She couldn’t believe the heat. Wasn’t Los Angeles supposed to always have great weather? Well, not in August, or at least not this particular August. And then a sun shower! Without a cloud in the sky a gentle rain fell, not much more than a mist, but it was enough to change everything. She could feel the tension leave her body like a weight.
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.
