Identity and Release History

Demeter Crayon, released in 2007, is part of the Classic collection from the brand Demeter.

Imagine a library where instead of books, there are smells on the shelves: freshly cut grass, summer rain, baby powder, sea breeze, and even fried bacon.

Exactly such a universal "aromatic encyclopedia" of life is the American brand Demeter, and Crayon is one of its most memorable creations.

Inspired by children's colored pencils Crayola, founded by C. Harold Smith and Edwin Binney, this fragrance transports us to a world of nostalgia and the first days of school.

Released as an Eau de Cologne, it offers a light and accessible interpretation of a familiar scent, making it ideal for those who appreciate life's simple joys.

Pyramid and Development

The olfactory profile of Demeter Crayon is built around a Woody Accord, which belongs to the Spicy and Woody families.

The fragrance immediately opens with warm woody notes, reminiscent of the smell of wooden pencils, with light spicy undertones adding depth.

Due to the absence of a complex pyramid, the scent remains straightforward and recognizable, which is typical of Demeter's philosophy—to create simple yet expressive fragrances capable of evoking bright emotions and memories.

Positioning and Wearability

This Unisex fragrance has a Barely Perceptible sillage, making it ideal for intimate moments and daily use.

As an Eau de Cologne, it is light and unobtrusive, suitable for the office, studies, or relaxed weekends, where a subtle fragrance can become your secret accent.

Recommendations for dosage on skin and clothing are not specified, but a few sprays are enough to create a soft aromatic cloud.

If you like Demeter Crayon, try similar fragrances: Serge Lutens Bapteme Du Feu, L'Artisan Parfumeur Ananas Fizz, or Issey Miyake L`Eau d`Issey Florale, which also play with unusual chords and fresh interpretations.

Creators and Influence

Although specific perfumers are not listed, the creation of Demeter Crayon reflects the innovative approach of the brand Demeter to perfumery.

Inspired by the history of Crayola, this fragrance demonstrates how ordinary objects can become a source of inspiration for unique perfumes, expanding the boundaries of traditional perfumery art.

It reinforces Demeter's reputation as a pioneer in the world of alternative fragrances, offering accessible and emotionally charged options for a wide audience, and continues to inspire fans to find beauty in the everyday.

Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The note pyramid of Demeter Crayon is focused exclusively on the Wood Accord, which combines various woody elements to create a warm and cozy scent directly associated with the smell of colored pencils.

Unlike traditional perfumes with multi-layered pyramids, here the notes unfold linearly, emphasizing simplicity and naturalness, which is characteristic of the Demeter style.

Woody shades may include nuances of cedar, sandalwood, or other types of wood, complemented by light spicy accents from the Spicy family, adding spice and depth.

The fragrance remains persistent in its clear profile, ideally suited for those who prefer minimalist and nostalgic scents without excessive complexity.

This is an excellent example of how Demeter turns everyday impressions into perfume art, making each spray a small journey into childhood.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
High (5 to 12 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage
Imperceptible
2
Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

Funny, don't you dream of a scent like colored pencils? Why not x) This brand really has a strange approach and taste, but they definitely stand out from the rest 🎨

The smell reminds me of shavings from a regular pencil. It's really amazing how accurately they managed to convey the scent of wood and graphite ✏️

The scent of wood and freshly sharpened pencil creates an amazing feeling, as if you've just opened an old book and inhaled its spirit. This combination is truly memorable and leaves a vivid impression ✨

Why convey the smell of pencil shavings so accurately? Just like sharpening a pencil. Why wear this? Unclear)) But curious)

I close my eyes and inhale. Oh, how strange this is! The scent of fresh wood, a little sharp, like a freshly sharpened pencil. A slight hint of paint that evokes nostalgia. This is truly intriguing, I can't help but notice. How did perfumers manage to capture such unusual notes? 😔

I spent ten years in art school, and this smell immediately takes me back to those days. It reminds me of wood, paints, and pencils, as well as the sweet fruity scent of lollipops our teacher gave us. A real atmosphere that envelops and makes you think 🎨
4/5

This fragrance, in my opinion, is more suitable for creating a mood than for everyday use. It evokes memories, as if transporting you back to certain moments in life. The scent really reminds me of pencil leads and wood shavings, which is quite unusual. All in all, it's not just a perfume, but a whole story you want to carry with you

The smell really reminds me of wood and pencil, but honestly, I wouldn't dare wear it

What an interesting pencil scent) It seems some perfumers just have nothing better to do if they decide to mix such smells. You can clearly smell pencil shavings and lead here
