Notes: white chocolate, cream, nuts, almonds, black cherry, red cherry, cherry almond

None of our fragrances are gendered. Smoke, leather, and graveyard dirt have no opinion on who’s wearing them.

Decadence and Decay is indulgence with a pulse barely left in it. Sweet, creamy, cherry-rich, and just unsettling enough to behave properly.

This is the scent customers choose when they want something delicious, but not innocent. Or for the musk haters (weirdos.)

The Story

Some – not all, but enough – have remarked that the smell of the decomposed has an aroma of cherry and almond. If true, it is a reminder of the complexity of existence: that there is a beauty and a frivolity even in those things we find most serious and unpalatable. Perhaps, however, it is commentary on what it means to be truly human. Even in death, and as our bodies physically unmake themselves, we are tied forever to the sweetness of indulgence.

Also comes as an Embalming Oil

This scent is also made as a 4oz Embalming Oil — the same fragrance, mixed from the same master batch, in a dropper bottle for body and hair.

The roller is your perfume. The Embalming Oil hydrates, perfumes your hair, and layers underneath to make the roller last longer.

Pairings

If you love gourmands but hate smelling like a cupcake with legal problems, this is your scent.

Pairs beautifully with Cemetery for a sweet graveyard effect, Nosferatu for a richer vampire’s table, or The Mummy for a creamy vanilla-cherry indulgence.
