Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop is selling a vagina-scented candle, and it's already sold out
2020-01-12
[FoxNews] Gwyneth Paltrow has done it again, folks.

The 47-year-old actress and serial lifestyle entrepreneur found another way to shock the world with the sale of a vagina-scented candle in her online Goop store.

The candle, provocatively named "This Smells Like My Vagina," will run customers a cool $75 and boasts a fragrance packed with geranium, citrusy bergamot and cedar, according to the Daily Mail.

Apparently the idea for the candle, made by Heretic, originally started out as a joke.

As the product description reads: "This candle started as a joke between perfumer Douglas Little and GP -- the two were working on a fragrance, and she blurted out, ’Uhhh ... this smells like a vagina’ -- but evolved into a funny, gorgeous, sexy, and beautifully unexpected scent."
I assume the candle dimensions are her favorite "tool" dimensions.
I've developed some candles her market might like: Racing striped underwear. I could probably let them go at $74.95, plus shipping..
I feel no need to ask how she knows what it smells like, but that ingredient list probably isn’t a match.
Once you get beyond the smell you've got it......

#23  Cooed Paltrow one morning, "Made Poopy!
I know all my groupies are loopy,
But will they recoil
From the smell of my soil
In this oil, so essentially Goopy?"

But seriously, if that's the purportedly anti-mosquito lemon geranium, I could roll around in that stuff and die happy. Orange mint, too, or pretty much any mint fambly greenery, really. Hmmm. Excuse me while I wax HD... [screech]

#20  Purred Gwyneth, "If pussies could smell,
They'd surely come running like hell
To the tang of my poon
By the light of the moon...
Or this scandal that's ringing my bell."
Cha-ching!

#16  Hard to imagine this is going to be a big seller. You've got to be really both crazy in a weird and preverted way to buy one of these fish-smelling $75 candles.

#15  Larry Flynt and Bob Guccione got there first. No matches needed.

#12  I believe the prime component is:

Pyridine is a basic heterocyclic organic compound with the chemical formula C5H5N. It is structurally related to benzene, with one methine group replaced by a nitrogen atom. It is a highly flammable, weakly alkaline, water-soluble liquid with a distinctive, unpleasant fish-like smell.

#5  A cheaper way to do this is to buy cod liver oil and use it in a oil lamp.

Preheated fish oil (for a little while, just enough to make the oil slightly rancid) infused with various herbs and such will work too.

#3  Also channeling the patron saint of implants.

She's a major new tycoon in Silicone Valley.

#2  I've read elsewhere where she channels St. Beatrice, patron of (obviously rice), but also the fishes and several varieties of eel.
