DEMETER Happy Foolproof Blending Set, Pink Grapefruit, Fuzzy Navel, Grass, Vanilla Cake Batter, Fresh Brewed Coffee, Bulgarian Rose, Apple Blossom, Pixie Dust, Set of 8 Perfumes

I bought this sampler for myself because I used to use Demeter fragrances in the past but couldn’t remember which fragrances worked best for me. This is a good way for me to test them out!

My teenage daughter loved this gift . The coffee is the most amazing fragrance several of the others smelled little more than sweet but all were pleasant . A lovely mix but if you are looking for a realistic smell the coffee is by far the best .

Very nice introduction to the brand.

Fun scents. Light scents. I like the plastic bottles. These would also be a good gift for a young person. My favorites of this set are coffee, grass, and vanilla. Unique perfumes. I haven’t smelled perfumes quite like these before. I went ahead and ordered a bunch more from their website so I must like them. 😃

Was good to be able to get a sample of the other scents, however, there's very little volume in each bottle. The label covers the entire bottle, but when you take it off, you can see there's barely enough for 3 or 4 squirts. HUGE waste of additional plastic for such a small amount of liquid.

Thunderstorm should be called tornado because it’s stinky. I wasn’t a fan of any of them except for the chocolate ones and the strawberry ones they were delicious. I would not buy again. I’m glad I just got samples.

Unfortunately I disliked all of the scents. The coffee smells far more like the coffee candy than the dark rich bitterness of actual coffee. Everything is intensely sweet to a nauseating extent. Admittedly I don't generally like sweet perfumes, so your mileage may vary. I didn't hate the grapefruit which was the best of the bunch, but it only had the pithy bitterness and none of the fresh juiciness. I'm sure this company, for the right person, makes excellent perfumes. For me, whose skin does not do well with sweet scents, unfortunately it just doesn't work.

The shipping price on these is crazy, the bottles are plastic so they shouldn’t require any special handling. Scents are subjective, and I didn’t like all of these but I do like most. Pixie Dust is sweet and powdery, the surprise favorite of the scents. Grass, coffee and cake batter are pleasant and smell as described. Fuzzy navel is pleasant but more floral than described. Pink Grapefruit, rose and apple blossom remind me of unpleasant decorative soap scents. I wish Demeter still sold room sprays, as that is mostly what I’m using these for.
