| I didn't feel this spray smelled too much like PlayDoh, but I don't know that I would recognize the smell. This was a gag gift, I have a friend that adores playdoh and they loved it. |
Demeter's Scents
|
| Review Date: March 29, 2010 |
| Reviewer: leepers, |
I purchased a 3-piece set of Demeter's fragrance which contained, Fresh Ginger, Ginseng Root, and Green Tea. Green Tea was the worst of the 3 scents, because something in it gave me a terrible headache: Trashed it. Ginseng Root has a somewhat musty, incense? smell to it: Not too bad, but I am not sure about this one. Fresh Ginger is the best of the 3 scents. Fresh Ginger has an earthy, woody, and somewhat mysterious note to it and it does NOT give me a headache....in fact, as I write this comment, I sprayed Fresh Ginger on my wrist, and LOVE the scent. It is one of the best fragrances that I have tried; however, I am not sure that it is going to be my signature scent, because whenever I wear it away from home, most people sniff at me, and noone asks me about the fragrance; so, I guess (some?) they don't particularly care for it. I think that I will try Fresh Laundry or Pure Soap next, because many people seem to give very good reviews about these fragrances: particularly Fresh Laundry.
I am trying to find THEEE fragrance (or two), but I am somewhat cautious about many fragrances, because they usually give me a headache. Strangely, I thought that musk was the culprit, but I am not certain about this as I have white musk (albeit an old bottle of about 10 years which may have weakened the scent?) by The Body Shop and I tested it by spritzing on my wrist and smelled it multiple times to see what affect (if any) the musk would have towards my sinus area. Well, after a few hours of intermittent wrist-smelling, I finally had a headache. I alternatively, did this without smelling my wrist, and noticed that I had no headache. So, I guess spraying on the wrist, and probably not near the nose (neck, ears, hair) is my best bet, unless it is not just musk which gives me a headache. |
The Home Fragrance Sprays might be cheaper but....

....lately the products have been hit or miss.
I recently tried Sticky Toffee Pudding in the 4 oz room spray and it's definitely become my favorite -- I can't get enough of it! On the other hand, my mother loves the Waffle Cone and I ordered her 2 bottles from the Demeter website ($14 each, plus flat rate shipping) and they came smelling nothing like the waffle cone she loves. It almost smells rancid like whiskey. There's no problem with exchanges -- that's what their website says anyway. I don't know if it's the room spray version that is bad or if they reformulated, but I'm going to send it back and pay the extra for the cologne version.
As for other scents I've tried:
Sugar Cookie - Very very sweet. A little too sweet for me.
Brownie - An artificial chocolate smell, but not offensive. Doesn't last very long.
Graham Cracker - Hard to find the scent in the sea of alcohol in the product.
Waffle - Very maple syrup-y.
Strawberry Ice Cream - Very artificial owerpowering scent. Almost like a very concentrated strawberry Quik. (Strawberry milk powder brand.)
Scottish Shortbread - There is some sort of oil in the mixture and when it arrived it was nearly frozen. I didn't care for this smell either. sort of an almond cookie smell but also masked by the alcohol smell.
Mojito - Ick. My mom received this as a promo item somewhere and it smells like a hospital to me! I'm not sure which component of Mojito smell is doing that to it, but I'd pass.
There's a Jelly Belly line scent that has something to do with blackberries. It was a pretty harsh scent. Not light and airy -- very contrived and strong. Over the top but not in a good way. Same goes for the Blueberry Muffin in the Jelly Belly line.
Vanilla Cake Batter - Not very exciting. Very vanilla, not very cakey.
I reviewed the Rubber and Mesquite scents on Amazon somewhere -- pass on those.
Before you invest the money, go to the Demeter site and get the $5 1/2 oz splash version of the scent you like. Or just get the Sticky Toffee Pudding. ;) |

I purchased the Honeysuckle.
The scent was pleasing, however,
I can walk down a househld aisle
in the supermarket and pick up
something for less then 1/2 the price
that smells just as nice.

Lackluster customer service

While the products are all as described, the service from Demeter Fragrance Library left much to be desired. I placed an order of 1 full sized cologne spray and two samples. My order came with a free sample which was delightful, except that one sample arrived completely shattered and the sample spray pump did not work. I contacted Demeter Fragrance Library immediately to report the issue and was advised that if I were to return the defective products they would be more than happy to exchange or replace them. I was told I would be refunded for the shipping cost for having to mail my damaged products back to them. This was not the case. While they sent me new products and refunded me for the one item I returned, I was not reimbursed shipping and it took me a week to get a hold of someone at the company who told me that they never reimburse shipping back unless you return the whole order. However, this was not what I was told the first time I called or I would have never sent it back. Now I'm out more for the shipping than I would have been just for the broken perfume sample. The woman I spoke to basically told me that no one could have possibly told me that I would be refunded unless I shipped the whole order back to them because "It's never been that way so I don't know how that could be possible." Way to make your customer feel great. I'll never place an order with them again. Order from an external website if you must.

| I was very disappointed in this product. I paid for a premium fragrance to give us that real Christmas tree smell and got something that smells just like the cheap pine bathroom deodorizers of years ago. |
Do not waste your money!

| I bought "Thunderstorm" and it is absolutely aweful! Not a clean fresh storm like I expected but wet dirt and dust. Not at all what I want people smelling when they walk into my home. I was very disapointed! If you're into this sort of smell more power to you, but it's not at all something I would ever buy again. |
Nothing like it!

| I bought Mildew thinking it would smell sort of like damp towels that had been in the bathroom for a couple of days but was disappointed to find it smelled more like sports liniment. Will next try thunderstorm. |
