Lilac Demeter Fragrance for women

It does in fact smell just like lilac.. JUST LIKE LILAC...but after a while, like with any strong flower, the smell becomes overwhelming. Absolutely needs other scents to layer with this one. i think something peppery would smell really interesting with it.

The Demeter is okay (certainly better than the Caswell-Massey, in my opinion). Something about the Demeter Lilac leaves me a bit disappointed: maybe it's too powdery for me? Maybe just a trace of herbalness, which I do not like?

I don't love it, and I don't hate it. I found that it lasted for several hours on me.

Though this frag is darling on its own--truly an impeccable lilac scent, I agree with the reviewer who said this was good for mixing. I mixed it with Bliss, which is also a fairly linear scent, and the result was heavenly. I plan on layering it with LOTV and grass essential oils to see where it goes. I would imagine most of the Demeter scents are good for experimenting this way.

Just picked this up as part of a set (along with Bulgarian Rose and Lavender) and it is very nice. A bit light as it does not last long but perfect for a warm spring or summer day.

The most realistic lilac scent I've come across. You'd swear you were smelling a bouquet.

Very interesting. Smells very lovely & fresh & accurate.

I wanted to find something in hyacinth, but that's a difficult fragrance to find.

Lilac is close to hyacinth is freshness & floral brightness. Great scent, glad Demeter made it.

I don't otherwise care for most of the other scents Demeter has.

if you love lilac, you'll love this. my favorite lilac scent comes through in this lovely, long lasting perfume. when it dries you can smell soft lilac all day. very nice.

I agree with the review below....amazing sillage!

This is a dream when mixing and experimenting too. Lilacs are one of my most favorite floral scents. This Dememter brings back memories of my childhood when I used to play with my friends across the street from my apartment building at a local church's back yard. There were lilac bushes everywhere. The soft powderiness of the flowers made it such a treat when running around the grounds. The aroma was fascinating to me, and this just took me back there.

You can mix 1 spray of this with 1 of Demeter Patchouli and 2 sprays of whatever linear vanilla you have and make the most beautiful creamy floral dream of a fragrance!

This lacks the stemmy green notes that true lilac has, but it isn't bad for that. It's a sweet, creamy lilac blossom scent without edges and I'm rather loving it. Lasts surprisingly well for a Demeter, which has a history of scents that fade quickly. Demeter also has a history for fun and quirky scents, though, so I'm willing to take the early fade for the fun. Lilac has lasted for an easy five hours so far and I can still smell it. Lovely.
