How to view old, dissmissed notifications on Android, Samsung Galaxy Alpha?

[AC Question]

As the questions says, I dismissed an important notifications really need to get it back and see what it says. I searched up the internet they all gave instructions for Motorola phones, like Nexus, it doesn't work on my Alpha. What they said was Go to widgets and and activities, settings then notifications and it'll appear. I made a mistake on that apparently you need custom launchers like Nova launcher for that to work. So I got that, but now that I'm here it just shows which app that notification came from, not the actually description of that notification, which is what I need, if anyone knows how I can get that, the help would be deeply appreciated.
