Demeter Fragrance Library: Vanilla Cookie Dough, Dark Chocolate & a Recipe!

With over 250 fragrances to choose from, the Demeter Fragrance Library has some of the most unique and personal scents I’ve ever come across. Some of my favourites are Gingerbread, Mulled Cider and Vanilla Ice Cream. Demeter also has scents in their library that are more personal and these choices are meant to evoke/convey something meaningful to each user. (i.e. Dirt, Clean Skin, Swimming Pool, Laundromat) 

To celebrate their newest scents coming out this month, Demeter developed a “secret recipe” inspired by Dark Chocolate & Vanilla Cookie Dough

Vanilla Cookie Dough Cologne Spray

Dark Chocolate is described as “a silky smooth, absolutely sensual and indulgent chocolate fragrance….deep, rich & exotic”.  Dark chocolate history dates back over 3000 years and is still one of the world’s most popular treat today.

Vanilla Cookie Dough is described as “dense, delicious and full-bodied”. A vanilla-lover’s delight without the cloying sweetness that vanilla fragrances can develop. It was inspired by Mark Crame’s (Demeter CEO) 13 year old daughter who recently discovered the wonders of edible cookie dough (no eggs).

Check out the simple & decadent recipe below. I haven’t made these cookies yet but plan to definitely give them a try soon.
