    The person who can turn petrichor into a manufacturable fragrance will be obscenely rich.

      I wear Thunderstorm by Demeter for this: it’s the closest practical replica I’ve found that lasts more than an hour.

      Even then, it’s closer to “inspired by” petrichor than a true replica, but the hint of ozone to invoke a storm on the wind is quite a nice touch.
