Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
A Water sign symbolised by The Crab, Cancerians like to feel safe – whether it’s emotionally, spiritually, romantically or financially. This inspired Demeter to create a fragrance that could act as a talisman of sorts, to keep its wearer feeling assured and secure.
NOTES
Ylang Ylang, Black Davana, Ugandan Vanilla Bean, Burl Wood.
HOW IT WEARS
Cancer has a sweet, warm juicy opening thanks to ylang ylang and davana …then settles in like a vanilla-scented hug and a cuppa in the kitchen with a friend you haven’t seen in a while. Comforting, warm and familiar. As an EDT, this fragrance will last 3-4 hours on the skin.
LORE LOVES
We love layering the Cancer Zodiac fragrance with its most compatible signs (Taurus, Virgo, Scorpio and Pisces) to create a perfectly harmonious signature blend.
ABOUT THE BRAND
Named after the Greek goddess of agriculture, Demeter Fragrance Library was founded in 1996 with a mission to capture the beautiful smells of the garden and nature in the form of wearable fragrance. Their first few scents – Dirt, Grass and Tomato – were immediate hits as they represented such a point of difference in the fragrance market, and still remain cult faves to this day!
Since their debut, Demeter Fragrance Library has expanded to include hundreds of scents. Each of their fragrances draws inspiration from everyday objects and experiences – be it the ones you can find in nature or elsewhere – from Baby Powder to Thunderstorm, from Gin & Tonic to Kitten Fur.
All Demeter fragrances are single note scents, meaning they use the smallest combination of ingredients possible to express an olfactory idea. Notes are linear, which means they express their olfactory nature immediately and do not change over time. Linear is simple, and simple is perfect for every day. This simplicity is what makes Demeter’s fragrances so evocative and transportive – whether they remind you of an at-home creature comfort or a childhood memory, they will always elicit some sort of reaction.
Demeter is now a family-owned and operated business with all their products finished and batched by hand in Pennyslvania, USA. All of their fragrances are at least 95% derived from natural and sustainable sources and are not tested on animals.
