Description

Funeral Home is a blend of classic white flowers including lilies, carnations, gladiolus, chrysanthemums with stems and leaves, with a hint of mahogany and carpet.

This scent was originally supposed to be “Flower Show”. However, Demeter’s perfumer personally did not like most white flowers, so he was finding it a tough fragrance to develop. When the founder, Christopher Gable, smelled it one he exclaimed: “it smells like my Grandfather’s funeral… call it Funeral Home!”. So they did.

HOW IT WEARS
Funeral Home begins as a crisp, green/white floral, with lilies and chrysanthemums particularly noticeable. As it settles however, it starts to get a little musty, and you can pick up a melancholy coldness in the composition. This fragrance has great lasting power and projection for an EDC.

LORE LOVES
This scent has been a cult fave for decades, both for Demeter and Lore. We have actually had a few morticians come in store and say they can smell a hint of formaldehyde in it! A great option for someone that wants a floral with a morbid, melancholy twist.

Demeter

Named after the Greek goddess of agriculture, Demeter Fragrance Library was founded in 1996 with a mission to capture the beautiful smells of the garden and nature in the form of wearable fragrance. Their first few scents – Dirt, Grass and Tomato – were immediate hits as they represented such a point of difference in the fragrance market, and still remain cult faves to this day!

Since their debut, Demeter Fragrance Library has expanded to include hundreds of scents. Each of their fragrances draws inspiration from everyday objects and experiences – be it the ones you can find in nature or elsewhere – from Baby Powder to Thunderstorm, from Gin & Tonic to Kitten Fur.

All Demeter fragrances are single note scents, meaning they use the smallest combination of ingredients possible to express an olfactory idea. Notes are linear, which means they express their olfactory nature immediately and do not change over time. Linear is simple, and simple is perfect for every day. This simplicity is what makes Demeter’s fragrances so evocative and transportive – whether they remind you of an at-home creature comfort or a childhood memory, they will always elicit some sort of reaction.

Demeter is now a family-owned and operated business with all their products finished and batched by hand in Pennyslvania, USA. All of their fragrances are at least 95% derived from natural and sustainable sources and are not tested on animals.
