At Demeter, we thought it was high time Poison Ivy gave people something better than a rash, so we decided to capture the great, fresh smell of Poison Ivy without the itching and scratching.
Demeter's Poison Ivy is a sharp and woody green scent, mixed with earthy notes and weeds, reminiscent of the wild, untamed vine in the forest.
The inspiration for Poison Ivy came when walking an English Mastiff, (a.k.a. a dog names Zephyr) in the country - a walk that took Zephyr through a patch of Poison Ivy. The most common way people get Poison Ivy without first-hand contact is from petting dogs and cats that romped in it. Thus, within a few days, between bouts of scratching, began reliving the memories of mother running the local Girl Scout camp and teaching the Scouts “leaves of three, let them be”, and going through Calamine Lotion by the gallon.
