Bring Out Your Dead

Spooky Season 2026 limited release. Our take on the legendary Thieves blend: clove, cinnamon, rosemary, lemon, and eucalyptus. Sharp, spicy, and bracingly clean, like a cure-all bottled in a dark apothecary.

The story goes like this. During the plague years in France, four thieves made a living robbing the homes of the sick and the dead, and somehow never fell ill themselves. When they were finally caught, the magistrate offered them a deal: their secret in exchange for their necks. They confessed to a vinegar steeped in herbs and spices, which they rubbed on their hands, faces, and masks before every job. Whether it actually protected them is anyone's guess, but the blend outlived the thieves, the plague, and the magistrate. This is that blend so you can take home a little legend this season. 

Note: liquid color and bottle shape may vary. Diffusers are approximately 6 mL; refill bottles are approximately 28 mL.

Car & Small Space Diffuser

A small wooden-capped vial that scents a small space through the grain of the wood; not a reed diffuser, but a quieter cousin that releases fragrance slowly as the wood absorbs the oil. It works anywhere small and enclosed: a car, a bathroom, a closet, a desk, a nightstand, a dorm room, a locker. The smaller the space, the stronger it reads.

Buy 2, get 1 free on the diffuser collection. They make an easy gift: stocking stuffers, teacher gifts, hostess gifts, coworker gifts, and party or wedding favors.

How long does it last? About 4 to 6 weeks, depending on heat and airflow.

How to use: Unscrew the cap and remove the plastic inner stopper, then screw the wooden cap back on. Tip the bottle gently to saturate the wood grain, then set it upright in a cup holder, on a shelf, or anywhere secure where it can't tip or roll. Re-saturate the wood whenever the scent fades. The more often you tip it, the stronger the scent. Do not leave the diffuser on its side or upside down.

Keep it off your surfaces: This is an oil-based product and may stain certain surfaces. Keep the diffuser and its contents off surfaces, don't place it where it could fall, and wipe up any spill promptly.

Cautions: For automotive and household scenting only; this is not a personal fragrance and is not for use on skin. Avoid contact with eyes; if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Keep away from open flame and extreme heat. Harmful if swallowed; if ingested, do not induce vomiting, and call Poison Control or seek medical attention right away. Keep out of reach of children and pets.

Contents: A proprietary blend of essential and fragrance oils in a diffuser base. Net 6 mL (0.20 fl oz).
