The Scent: A bold exotic floral, slightly spicy, and a staple in the perfumer's palette. The ylang-ylang tree grows in low-lying tropical areas of several countries stretching from India southwards and eastwards to the northern parts of Australia. It is known by different names in different countries, however it is from the Tagalog language of the Philippines that the tree came to be known as ylang-ylang, or more correctly álang-álang, a Tagalog term meaning "flower of flowers". In Indonesia the flowers of ylang-ylang are traditionally used to decorate and perfume the nuptial bed. Ylang-ylang flowers infused in coconut oil were used as a pomade for the hair by people living on the Molucca Islands. This perfume is free from artificial colors and preservatives, phthalates or parabens, and is made from alcohol naturally fermented from corn.

About the Brand: Demeter was conceived in 1996, with a unique and ever expanding perspective on fragrance. The original mission was to capture the beautiful smells of the garden and nature in wearable form. The Demeter name itself was inspired by the Greek Goddess of Agriculture. The first three fragrances were Dirt, Grass and Tomato, and were sold in a few stores in NYC.
