The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Petrichor by Demeter Fragrance is an Aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of nature in a bottle. Launched in 2017, this scent embodies the distinctive aroma that arises when rain falls on dry earth. The composition opens with aquatic and fresh notes, creating a crisp and invigorating atmosphere before settling into rich, earthy tones that evoke the post-rain ambiance. This fragrance is a proof of Demeter's commitment to reviving memories through scents, taking you back to those moments when the air feels renewed and refreshed.

How to wear it

Petrichor's aquatic and fresh top notes dissipate quickly, so layering it on pulse points ensures that the rich earthy base remains close to your skin throughout the day. It’s best applied in the morning or during cooler weather when its crispness can be fully appreciated.
