The Fragrance Graveyard

Burial Ground

Unfortunately, and somewhat ironically, Burial Ground has taken the first plot in our Fragrance Graveyard. In fact, it was the death of this scent profile which gave the inspiration for creating this page! Burial Ground embodied our two main loves; nature and the macabre. The unmistakeable thick scent of wet, freshly dug earth, split blades of grass and mycelium, which is a type of mould found in soil. It even had a small amount of this specific mould implanted in it's wax. It became unavailable due to an oil supplier closing their business, which meant that one of the oils which is crucial in it's formulation, is no longer available. Possible alternative routes were explored, but to no avail. A freight forwarding service was even consulted, to get the oil direct from America, where it is made. The outcome was astronomical quotes for postage at rates of £750 and up. Not something we could justify for the attainment of one oil. Unless we find an oil for sale in England, which has an earthy hum about it, Burial Ground will remain in The Fragrance Graveyard. The search for such an oil will continue, so that one day it may be exhumed...

Krampus Night

Taking the second plot in the fragrance graveyard, we have our limited edition Christmas scent; Krampus Night. This scent profile was active for two Christmases, before being consigned to history and placed in this remembrance zone. The profile simulated the possible scent of the Krampus - pine tree sap, coal and birchwood were the main notes, backed up by a bed of festive herbs and a sprinkling of sparkly snow. It also contained a fantastic essential oil which we had imported from Austria. It was this oil which led to the downfall of this scent profile. We first found this oil in 2022. It finished the profile off perfectly and added a massive sense of realism to the profile, as the oil was derived from actual Austrian pine trees, from their vast evergreen forests. However, a larger oil company who shall remain nameless (I cannot even bring myself to type it's foul name) must have seen the profits being created by this small, family-run company and they were actually bought out in August 2023 by the larger company. The new oil we bought for the Christmas of 2023 was not of a good enough standard for the scent profile, and it therefore did not work as intended. And so, Krampus Night was consigned to the graveyard in January 2024.

A new blend based around the myth of The Krampus, was invented for Christmas in 2025. This new blend is called "Awaken The Krampus" and it is an exploration of the snow-laden forest home, where The Krampus lives.

The Old Silk Road

One of the original five blends released on launch day, The Old Silk Road takes up the third plot in our fragrance graveyard. It packed a robust punch of cardamom, saffron, rose, star anise, black tea, fenugreek and madras spices. An ode to the infamous trade route of early civilisations, The Old Silk Road gave opulence and elegance to any room it was burnt in. An incredibly well-rounded and contemporary fragrance, it quickly became our second most popular blend, where it remained until The Hex knocked it off its perch. It bridged a gap between our world of bizarre alternative olfactory art and the external world of contemporary scent profiles. We found that many who bought The Old Silk Road, usually bought one of our more daring blends thereafter. The remaining three units were sold to one person, on the 10th of October 2024. It was in our range for almost 3 straight years. Unfortunately, the fragrance oil company that provided us with a required oil for its creation, closed down in the middle of 2023. We bought all remaining quantities of the oil as they were closing down, which kept The Old Silk Road going until the beginning of October, but the production of units stopped soon after the start of October, when the reserves of that oil ran dry. We have found a place where we can get the oil we need, but it can only be ordered in very large quantities, which we currently don't have the space to store. It may be exhumed one day, but it sadly won't be any time soon.

Deadly Sins

The main reason scent profiles come to this page to be buried, is that more often than not, we can no longer source an oil that is crucial in it's creation. This is sadly exactly what has happened to Deadly Sins, which takes up plot 4 in our scent graveyard. It was committed to the graveyard on the 12th of July 2025, after just over two years of inclusion in our roster. Never a big player, Deadly Sins sold moderately well, whenever it was taken to market events. It had an exciting blend of sour mash whiskey, our own signature chocolate oil, which was comprised of three separate chocolate oils, and a stiff shot of strong coffee to round the profile off. We also found a way to emulate the "warm smell" of fire, which ran through the entirety of the profile. It truly was a blasphemous masterpiece, as it contained three things that religious organisations often look down upon - alcohol, sugar and caffeine. After many long hours of searching, buying and testing, a suitable whiskey note could not be found. This spelt the end for Deadly Sins. The last unit was purchased on the 12th of July 2025, the same day that it was buried, as there was only one unit left in our candle resting cupboard. We will continue to search for a replacement whiskey oil that is of a sufficient standard, but until then, Deadly Sins will remain in our scent graveyard, quietly rotting alongside the other plots.

EDIT 23/12/25 - A potential replacement whiskey oil has been sourced. We will see Deadly Sins make a comeback in 2026!
