Gwyneth Paltrow’s ‘This Smells Like My Vagina’ candle is back in stock on Goop.
The 47-year-old actress debuted the $75 product on her lifestyle website last month, and after it sold out instantly, she has confirmed it’s now back on sale.
Appearing on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ on Monday (24.02.20), the ‘Iron Man’ actress announced: “We have more in now.”
Gwyneth – who has son Moses, 13, and daughter Apple, 15, with ex-husband Chris Martin – also recalled being in a meeting with Los Angeles perfumer Douglas Little and joking that a product smells like her vagina. She quipped: “I smelled something and I said this as a joke, but next thing I know it’s on my website.”
Jimmy took a sniff of the candle – which is actually made with geranium, citrusy bergamot, and cedar – and said: “It smells nice. It smells kind of a little masculine, kind of woody.”
He laughed: “It doesn’t really, you know what I’m saying?”
And Gwyneth replied: “It’s not really supposed to smell like a vagina.”
Then, the chat-show host joked: “This is false advertising then.”
Gwyneth also admitted that her son Moses is no longer embarrassed by Goop and he now thinks his “feminist” parent is “badass”.
She said: “My son said to me the other day, ”At first I thought it was really embarrassing there were vibrators on your site. And now I think it’s a great thing.’ He’s like, ‘You’re a feminist, mom. You’re a badass.'”
Gwyneth previously said she wanted to take the “shame” out of women’s private parts when she named her candle ‘This Smells Like My Vagina’.
She explained: “The idea [is] that women have been taught to have a certain amount of shame about their body. So, if you just light a candle that says ‘This Smells Like My Vagina’, and put it on the coffee table, it’s kind of a punk rock statement.”
Meanwhile, Douglas Little previously claimed Sir Elton John was one of the product’s biggest customers.
“We have been hounded and stalked by so many people [trying to get one]. I saw the candle being sold on eBay for a ridiculous price.”
Paltrow is not the only celebrity cashing in on an item associated with her genitals. Erykah Badu also sold Badu P*ssy Premium Incense which sold out in just 20 minutes.
According to Source, “Each $50 order comes with a bulk of 20 incense. The Badu Market World website says the vagina-scented aroma was handmade using ashes from the singer’s underwear, pure resin, essential oils, and herbs. The “Window Seat” singer s explained the process of getting the scent from her vagina. “I took lots of pairs of my panties, cut them up into little pieces and burned them… Even the ash is part of it.”
