The Scent
The original. The scent that started Laurel Bath House — a quiet, woody composition built for the morning after the long night.
Mourning Wood opens with a snap of black pepper, settles into warm sandalwood, and grounds itself in a vetiver that holds on like good company.
Worn close to the skin, it reads less like a fragrance and more like a presence — the kind people lean in for without knowing why.
Toss the junk. It’s time to do more with less.

The reviews are in.
Omg! Cuffed is delicious… truly one of the best scents I own!
Smells like a memory I never had. I get asked about it constantly.
Started with the Samplers, came back for two full bottles a week later.
The wash and the perfume together last me the entire day.
