Demeter Crayon ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 22 July 2007 9 Comments

Demeter Crayon fragranceDemeter has launched Crayon, a new fragrance:

Inspired by childhood, Demeter’s Crayon smell just like that new box of Crayolas® you opened on your first day of school.

Invented by cousins, Edwin Binney and C. Harold Smith, Crayola® brand’s first box of eight Crayons made its debut in 1903. Crayons were sold for a nickel and were available in only a limited variety of colors. Today, there are over 64 colors and more than 100 types of crayons being made.

Crayola® also makes crayons that smell like flowers, so it only seems appropriate that Demeter make cologne that smells like crayons!

Demeter Crayon is available in 15 ml Cologne Mini-Splash, 30 or 120 ml Cologne Spray, and in matching bath & body products and Room Spray. Many thanks to magicmarti for the tip! Update: see a brief review of Demeter Crayon.

    Man, I must say… I really get this company's concept.

    Just the mention of the word Crayons brings to mind the smell and memories of elementary school or earlier.

    I will never stop being amazed of the power of smell to conjure up powerful memories, olfactory and otherwise.

    Crayons are a great smell, aren't they? Somehow, I missed their Play Doh scent entirely and never got to smell it, but hope to smell this one. I have plenty of crayons in the house to compare :-)

    Demeter is fun and I've loved a number of their line (especially some of the old CrisBrosius originals like Tomato). The quality these days has lapsed. I bought a bunch of the new small bottles and tossed several – Ivy smells like soap, one smelled like nothing. They last for 5 minutes. What a shame.

    I agree but how about as a room spray – a fun scent for a children's party room!

    Have you tried the CB I Hate Perfume line? He still carries lots of single notes & accords, although not all are on his website.
