I'm back with another scent memory - and like the last one, which was about all of the warmth and comfort of being a book lover surrounded by books, this one holds a very important place in my heart. Along with the set that was custom curated for me, I also received a set of three fragrances that were chosen by the CEO of Demeter based on his scent memories. It's amazing, I think, to hear about other people's scent memories and get to know them a little in the process. That's the thing, isn't it? When you hear about people's memories, it always tends to give you clues about that person's life and about what's important to them. 

For me, the smell of Mountain Air and the memories I have attached to it speak very much to parts of what made me who I am... Those are some of the most important memories of all. Keep reading to learn a little about me and about 3 scents from Demeter.

Scent memory is incredibly unique. I'm not all that familiar with the science of it, but I do know that certain scents can pull me back to another time in my life and fill me with very distinct emotions related to them. I still recognize the scents of different perfumes and colognes that people long gone from my life used to wear and whenever I smell those scents it reminds me of those people. I remember the scent of the eau de toilette that I used to wear when I was a teenager, a wildly spicy scent from the drugstore in a brightly coloured little vial, but damned if I can remember what the scent was called or who made it even though I wore it for probably two years. Scent memory is a very powerful thing and that's exactly what Demeter draws out.

Recently, I got the opportunity to have a trio of scents curated for me based on my choice of the scent Paperback from Demeter as part of the Canadian Beauty Bloggers Network, drawing on my own scent memories. Keep reading for more about this scent and two others that Demeter paired with it for me!
