by Demeter Fragrance
Sunshine by Demeter Fragrance is a soft, creamy vanilla scent with a subtle ozonic and citrus hint, leaning toward sweet and gourmand accords. While it's marketed as fresh laundry warmed by the sun, the dominant impression is of velvety vanilla layered with a light floral powder and slight musk, evoking warm cotton, soft ice cream, or a comforting lotion. The scent is delicate and faintly sweet, more reminiscent of dessert than sun-dried linen. It performs best on the skin during spring and summer, projecting moderately with a soft, intimate presence, and has decent retention on clothing and fabrics. Longevity is brief on skin, lasting only a few hours, but it lingers well in clutches and on fabric. The formulation feels slightly oily, and its scent can shift into a strong vanilla gourmand dry-down that some find cloying or excessive.
