Wet Garden Demeter Fragrance Library 2002 Cologne

For a year now, I've been circling around Parfumo like a cat around hot porridge. Since I've had to stay in bed for a week and am gradually getting very bored, I've finally dared to write my first comment - and I'm quite excited!
Unlike what I always imagined, this will not be a comment on a "favorite scent." Since I had a lot of time last week, I finally mustered the courage to test some fragrances from Demeter F. L. A bit of fear of overly synthetic scents held me back (I don't know why I associate that with Demeter fragrances), but the idea of evoking memories through scents is one of the main reasons why I enjoy trying and using fragrances so much. Memories, feelings, things that cannot be described in words, all of that is contained in these oh-so-different bottles of various perfumes - a whole world...

And this happened yesterday:
It is sometime in the 70s of the last... millennium!!! At that time, I spent a lot of my free time after elementary school at my maternal grandmother's house. She lives directly across from the cemetery in our village. And she takes care of a considerable number of graves for a small fee. New grave soil, new flowers, wiping gravestones, and so on. And of course, the disposal of old bouquets and flower arrangements in a pit right next to the cemetery. That was, of course, exactly the right task for a child my age - running errands. But how does the perfumer of Wet Garden (my version is called Summer Rain) know what the composition of wilted lilies, past carnations, dried baby's breath, and old, stale flower water smells like or used to smell like?
The cemetery is sometimes also a wet garden, and in summer it does rain there sometimes - but actually, I had hoped for a different scent experience. But as my grandmother used to say: "You can't always get what you wish for!" Sometimes that's a good thing, but in this case, it's rather unfortunate!

I ordered a total of 5 different scents to test. I've already tested four and unfortunately have to say that all the scents come across as a bit artificial to me. It must be said that I am a big lover of natural scents and often struggle with "mainstream perfumes" (which I certainly don't count Demeter F. L. among). Therefore, I am surely a bit biased, as I always have a little fear of artificiality with such "cheap" scents. However, since I am basically curious and experimental, I actually test (almost) everything that comes into my hands and under my nose.
I also want to clarify that my comment (and my future ones) will always only capture my personal observation at that moment. My daughter (17), for example, has a completely different "skin chemistry" than I do, and scents that I like on myself can smell terrible on her and vice versa. Additionally, with different tastes (you really can't argue about taste), it can happen that someone tears apart a scent that another finds divine. With my comment (hopefully comments in the future), I really don't want to offend anyone.
And I also have a lot to learn for my upcoming time here at Parfumo, so I always welcome tips and suggestions on how to use this simply wonderful site for perfume lovers - please be patient with me (I am a total tech failure and always need help from my kids, but I did set up my account with a picture!!! all by myself!!!)!
