A beautiful, delicate flower, daphne has a sweet, spicy and slightly soapy scent. In Greek Mythology, Daphne is the name of a water sprite who was turned into a shrub to escape the advances of the god Apollo.
HOW IT WEARS
This Eau de Cologne is light and fresh like the scent of new flowers being carried by a crisp breeze in early spring. As the blooms are warmed by the sun they begin to smell more honeyed, which is how this fragrance behaves on the skin, lasting for 3-4 hours.
LORE LOVES
We get asked for daphne scents a lot at Lore because of how much people love the smell of the flowers, so we are super stoked to now have a daphne soliflore available! Floral with a soft sweetness, this scent allows you to experience daphne in bloom all year long!
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.
