Scent type · Woodsy

Woodsy, with a strange dark incense underneath. Moss, bark, plum.

Made for Every Body. Fragrance doesn’t care about your gender.

The Undertaking is smoky, mossy, and quietly pleased with itself - the scent of someone who has accepted being misunderstood and decided to enjoy the ride.

Notes: oak, moss, aged bark, earth, smoke, incense, plum

The Story

The wagon leaves the town square with coffins in tow. For the coach's rider, it is anything but a grim business. The road to the cemetery is pleasant and well-worn, and within minutes the smoke of the city's factories are replaced with the scents of cool air and wet moss. The rider knows he may never be invited to fanciful parties or lush parlors, but this moment is his alone to savor. There can be great pleasure in being misunderstood.

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.
