I have always envied those women who’ve managed to settle on a signature scent. While I love so many pretty perfumes – from the heady, exotic luxuriousness of Shalimar to the fresh, simple sweetness of some of the Calvin Kleins, to the classic combinations found in the Chanels – I have yet to determine which one is, well, mine.

But if ever I have a shot at finding one, I have a feeling it may be among the many olfactory marvels available at Demeter Fragrance Library. There’s something to suit everyone here; the choices are, quite simply, incredible – think typical scents like florals and spices, as well as more, um, unusual choices like Play-Doh and Dirt, Pumpkin Pie and Gin & Tonic, Tootsie Roll and Cannabis Flower, Egg Nog and (gulp!) Funeral Home.

Of course, the concept is that while some of these bottled beauties may seem odd, the company is banking on the fact that nothing rivals the power of perfume to bring you on a trip down memory road.... whether that means the aroma of Pipe Tobacco, Condensed Milk or Christmas Tree!

XOXO
