Notes: vanilla, walnut, rosewood, jasmine, dianthus, rose, hint of powder
Cold beauty made wearable—a soft, powdery floral-vanilla hair-and-body oil for anyone who likes their elegance a little unsettling.
MADE BY A HAIRSTYLIST OF 20 YEARS
Two decades behind a salon chair taught me exactly what an oil should do—sink in, add shine, never turn greasy. This is what happens when a hairstylist makes a perfume: the product I always wanted that didn’t exist. Until now.
What Is an Embalming Oil? +
Despite the name, our Embalming Oil is for the living. It’s a concentrated, super-hydrating lotion oil for body, hair, and bath—made with nourishing oils and free of parabens, palm oil, and harsh chemicals. Unlike heavy creams that sit on the surface, it sinks in within minutes, leaving skin soft, scented, and suspiciously well-preserved.
How to Use +
A little goes a long way. Hair oil / hair perfume: warm a small amount and smooth through mid-length to ends. Body: start small and build—a few drops on damp skin, sinks in dry. Bath: a capful under running water. Pulse points: if you please.
The Story +
The porcelain doll taught young Victorians much about beauty. With their hand-sewn dresses and powder-white skin, even the most mundane of dolls were imbued with a sense of timeless elegance. And yet, a cruel lesson lay behind the doll's unblinking eyes: a beauty that stands frozen in time is most often cold to the touch.
Pairings +
Made to pair with the matching Porcelain Perfume Oil—wear the oil for scent, then layer this embalming oil on top to deepen it and make it last. Lovely through the ends of your hair, too.
