Fragrance notes: sawdust, peppermint, lemon peel
Created in collaboration with author Heather M. Herrman.
Our fragrance Corpse Queen is inspired by the vivid smells described in Heather M. Herrman's novel by the same name. The novel follows Molly Green down a rabbit hole into a dark and twisted life she never imagined having. Presented with few options as an young, unmarried, and orphaned woman in 1850s Philadelphia, she made the most logical decision and turned to grave robbery. Molly learned how to steal corpses and sell them to medical students for dissection. Corpse Queen is both horrifying and intriguing, as you would imagine digging up dead bodies would be.
While body snatching may be ghastly, this fragrance is actually rather delightful. The scent profile begins with a base of sawdust, the woody aroma of an old cedar coffin. Blended with the cedar is a nostalgic note of peppermint. A fresh peppermint aroma that evokes imagery of herbal candy sold in a fancy jar at an old apothecary shop. A twist of lemon peel beautifully tops off the fragrance and ties everything together. Corpse Queen is an exhilarating scent full of 19th century nostalgia that bursts with dark humor.

I am obsessed with this candle! I'm the author of The Corpse Queen and so probably a little biased. That said, I am honestly super picky about my candles, and this one smells so beautiful. Honestly, it makes me feel like I'm in a high-end boutique (albeit maybe one with a skull or two) each time I light it. The scent is just incredibly balanced and intriguing. Truly the perfect scent.
I love this candle for my kitchen since it reminds me of homey herbs, just enough to turn your head…
The scent description of this candle might be intimidating, but all of them are delicately blended into one delightful smell while burning. None of them overpower any of the others, you can smell each of them. It's definitely my new favorite candle scent.
love these candles - sweet and light with grounding earth. delightful!
My husband absolutely loves this one—it’s fresh but also has a quality I can’t quite explain. Love it!
