The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 19 March 2019 7 Comments

Coming from Heretic, Dirty Grass, which perfumer Douglas Little says smells like "new mown hay", and features vetiver, lavender and hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD, and yes, you can absorb it transdermally). $75 for 15 ml Eau de Parfum. (via wwd)

    Oy! I wonder if drug testing (pre-employment screening or random drug testing) will pick up the CBD and think it is on the list of banned substances?

      From leafly:

      “Fortunately, the urine drug screen for THC-COOH is known to have very little cross-reactivity to other cannabinoids that are not intoxicating, such as CBD (cannabidiol), CBG (cannabigerol), CBN (cannabinol), and others. This is good news for “normal” consumers of CBD/hemp oil.

      That said, individuals using unusually large doses of a cannabinoid-rich hemp oil product (above 1000-2000 mg of hemp oil daily) could theoretically test positive during the initial urinary screen.”

      So you probably could not afford to use enough of this product to cause a problem 😉

        I actually think the “problem”, if you want to call it that, is sort of the opposite, that is, that many people do not know that hemp-derived cbd will not make them high.

          I think another “problem” is believing that adding a bit of CBD to perfume is going to have any benefit for anything.

            I assume it’s to add a bit of skunkiness, so as much of a benefit as the addition of any other note.
