The Scent: A perfect Holiday fragrance. Sugar plums can be made from any kind or combination of dried fruits, not just plums, together with finely chopped nuts, honey and aromatic spices. Demeter's Sugar Plum is, not surprisingly, on the simple side, just plum, honey, powdered sugar and a secret combination of spices.

The Inspiration: Sugar Plums are widely associated with Christmas, inspired by characters like the Sugar Plum Fairy in Tchaikovsky's "Nutcracker"

The Story: A Visit from St. Nicholas by Clement C. Moore 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all thro' the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugar plums danc'd in their heads.
