Demeter Twilight Orchid Cologne

Details and Care

Demeter Twilight Orchid is a dark floral fragrance with a twist of warm spicy notes and a splash of fruitiness. This 2015 scent is part of Demeter's Orchid Collection, which features some of the most believable orchid fragrances on the market. Like many Demeter scents, Twilight Orchid is designed with only a few notes, but its authenticity makes it the perfect way to inspire fond memories. While Demeter Twilight Orchid features a slightly more sophisticated composition than many of the company's other fragrances, it still has a powerful, long-lasting aroma. The delicate combination of midnight and red ginger orchid incorporates a fragrant floral accord, which is deepened with romantic notes of jasmine and yuza in the heart of the aroma. Zesty grapefruit closes out the scent with a bright citrus accord. The end result is a lively cologne that is suitable for both casual events and special occasions.

Questions and Answers

Q: How does Demeter Twilight Orchid smell?

A: Twilight Orchid is a soft blend of white floral notes with distinct elements of grapefruit and yuzu. It mellows to a warm amber with hints of rich wood as it dries down. It's reminiscent of a garden blossoming as the mist settles in the evening.

Q: Where do you apply Demeter Twilight Orchid?

A: To increase the longevity of the fragrance, spray onto your major pulse points such as behind your ears, at the base of your neck, on the wrists, behind the knees and in the inner elbows.

Q: What is the fragrance concentration?

A: Fragrances labeled Eau de cologne like Demeter Twilight Orchid have moderately low fragrance concentrations, averaging between two to five percent fragrance oil. Since even the strongest concentrations, such as eau de parfum, rarely go over 30% perfume oil, eau de cologne still has a respectable density, yet it tends to be light. Twilight Orchid has a reputation for staying close to the skin and insisting on occasional reapplication throughout the day to maintain its potency.

Q: Is Demeter Twilight Orchid for him or her?

A: The light floral notes in this fragrance lean more toward the feminine side, but rich woodsy undertones with a hint of spice make it appropriate for men or women. Its delicate fruity elements make it a good candidate for layering with another more complex scent to bring out sweeter or more stoic notes, depending on your preference.

Q: Does Demeter Twilight Orchid last long?

A: Although this fragrance is usually still in evidence after four hours, it begins as a moderately lightweight scent, so it can be hard to pick up unless you're very close to it. This eau de cologne is ideal for carrying along for reapplication during the day, but you might also try enhancing it with moisturizers and avoiding extreme temperatures.

Q: What fragrances smell similar?

A: Aphrodite's Slipper Orchid by Demeter, Yves Rocher Nuit d'Orchidee by Yves Rocher, Viktor&Rolf Flowerbomb Ruby Orchid by Viktor&Rolf

Q: What season should I wear Demeter Twilight Orchid?

A: This is a versatile all-season fragrance. Its light floral notes help it fit in perfectly with spring and summer ensembles while its rich woody and warm amber base notes make it a pleasant fragrance when cooler temperatures arrive.
