Sinister Scents

Trick-or-treaters often encounter scary sights and scary sounds, but scary smells?

Sinister Scents produces a wide variety of spooky scents (and the special devices that spread the smells) that will frighten your TOTs on a whole new sensory level.

After perusing their list, I find that "Burnt flesh" and "Decay" do sound enticing, but I'm really eager to check out "Haunted House".

You smell like a funeral home...

For those of you who would like to surround yourself with macabre smells all year long, give Dementer Fragrance a try. Their line of unusually scented lotions, colognes, room sprays, and soaps come in "Bonfire", "Dirt", "Earthworm", "Funeral Home", and "Poison Ivy" (just to name a few.)

Light for those who prefer the dark

If lavender and lilac scented candles are too bourgeois for your taste, you may want to give "Dark Candles" a try. They provide gothic and horror themed candles to people "who have a penchant for the macabre and the darker side of life." You wont find any cinnamon scented votives here. Their unusual scents include:

Coffin ("It’s a dead ringer! A bit of old rotting wood with a bit of earth underscored with a masculine lavender to give it some 'body'.")

Corpse ("A dark and full base pierced with a stinging balmy mint scent, pleasantly reminiscent of a cold embalmed corpse.")

Graveyard ("An old forlorn, crumbling cemetery with strong tones of wet earth blended with a hint of Frankincense and a touch of myrrh.")

Haunted House ("A spellbinding blend of haunting forest woods, spooky spices and the witch’s little dark secret. A dark sensual fragrance with a musky quality.")
