FLOWERS, LEAVES, RAIN
Persephone is the ancient goddess of spring and the seasonal inspiration behind this 100% botanical perfume. We have captured the scent of blossoms, green leaves, and the air after a rainfall. This perfume is layered and nuanced and will take you on an olfactory journey, one that begins with bursts of jasmine, violet, and pomegranate and mellows into a honeyed floral with soft powdery notes.
Top notes: April rain - fresh, green, airy
Middle notes: May blossoms - burst of florals
Bottom notes: June sweetness - soft, powdery, honeyed violet
Ingredients: Organic cane sugar alcohol, rose, jasmine, ambrette seed, orris butter, ylang ylang, orange blossom, tonka bean, violet, vanilla, bitter orange, galbanum.
We believe in fragrance transparency and are proud to list each ingredient.
Longevity: 5 hours

Ok just not for me.
The scent was too floral for me but was ok. The scent does not stay on long, fades fairly quickly.

In the league of Jean Patou Joy
This is a superb perfume. Truly amazing to find something in the league of a classic Jean Patou fragrance.

The only perfume I can wear.
I love this product. I cannot stand perfume on myself or others. My husband got this for me for Christmas two years ago and I was worried it might be too powerful but it is subtle an no harsh attack on my senses. It's light and great for sensitive skin.

Absolute ethereal perfection
You know how scent evokes memories This perfume captures everything, right from the first note: an eclectic store that sold the best silver jewelry in Uptown Waterloo in the 90s, the music of the Cure, my friend Taisha, a memory of watching the first fireflies on a warm night in June, a romantic walk in the moonlight, and true love.

Persephone
Loved it! Will save my pennies and buy a bottle when weather is warmer. Don't want it to freeze in delivery!

Very well made perfume
The perfume is a very high quality product that has a pleasing aroma with none of the sharp, alcohol notes that you can find in some perfumes. The scent was just a little bit on the sweet/floral side for my tastes but that is just a personal preference. I am very happy with the quality of this product and, if they release a new scent, will absolutely try it.

Too sweet for me
I tried it many times as I really wanted to wear a natural perfume, but it's too sweet for me. It's very feminine but it reminds me of my grandmother's perfume.

Petal Purity

Persephone
Fragrance too strong for my liking.

Lovely scent
Very pretty fragrance but doesn’t seem to last very long
Cocoon Apothecary Canada
We are pleased you like the fragrance! Natural perfume has a shorter longevity than synthetic perfume. Our Persephone 100% Botanical Eau de Parfum longevity is 5 hours. Have a great day! Christine

Very good quality
Love the transparency of the brand and the fact that it is composed of natural ingredients. Long lasting product - way more than 5 hours. On my skin, it lasted at least 12 hours. Will not buy again because too floral for me - I usually only wear hesperidia - but does not cause me any headaches. Will definitely buy any hesperidia perfume from the brand should they develop such product.

Beautiful product
Love this fragrance! So exotic - smells like a holiday!

Persephone

Really love the scent

Did not like the scent at all
Sorry to say, will not use. Tossed. Not my cup of tea at all. Bought one for my daughter as well… she also will not use and tossed.

Scent is so personal! This is why we offer sample sizes to test out before purchase :)

Persephone 100% Botanical Eau de Parfum
Love this perfume!

Not for me
Lovely scent, but it bothers me. I am very sensitive to most perfumes so I am looking for completely natural ones.
Cocoon Apothecary Canada
Hi Anneke, Thank-you for your feedback! We use completely natural ingredients and no synthetics in our perfume. All ingredients are listed on our website. :) Kathryn

Love it
I love it! I usually don’t like buying perfume online since you can’t smell it. But the description of the smell was dead on. It smells so fresh and floral without being over powering.
