Gwyneth Paltrow dispels taboos and creates a vagina-smelling candle

Butterfly, flounder, potato, pussy and other 1000 names with which to avoid calling the female genital organ by its real name. Vagina. Like everything related to the sexual sphere, there is a real taboo around this part of the body. The vagina. We keep repeating it to prepare you psychologically for the news that we are about to give you and from which, probably, you will be shocked. Do you know who cares about taboos? Indeed, who has made taboos their main source of income lately? Gwyneth Paltrow.

The actress, who we recently saw on the big screen in the movie Avengers: End Game, but who we also pleasantly remember for her performance in Shakespeare In Love, turned to the hippic-emmh lifestyle. In 2008, in fact, he opened a blog called Goop, on which he wrote about alternative medicine, wellness and sexuality. After getting a hefty fine for putting "jade eggs" for sale on her website, eggs designed to improve hormonal balance if inserted into the vagina, but, later revealed to be harmful, Gwyneth returns to talk about herself and, since the word vagina doesn't scare her, she launches the smell of hers on the market in the form of a candle.

You got it right. After sea breeze, pine scent, Shizuoka green tea, Tahitian vanilla flavored wholemeal waffle, here is the “This Smells Like My Vagina Candle”. Do you want to know how this name was born? In short, there were Gwyneth and perfumer Douglas Little who were serenely testing candle fragrances when, suddenly, the lighting: “This blend of geranium, citrus bergamot, damask rose cedar and ambrette seeds has just the smell of my vagina! " (actually, who has never recognized at least one of these fragrances in the smell of their vaginal undergrowth ?!).

The launch took place a few days after the release of the Netflix series dedicated to the brand created by the actress, "The Goop Lab", which will take place on January 24, so it is likely that the provocation was designed for promotional purposes. In short, for better or for worse, the important thing is that we talk about it. And he talked about it all right. In this regard, we wanted to thank Gwyneth because, thanks to her crazy idea, she not only dared to use the word vagina without censorship or modesty, but she gave us a series of memes shared on social networks by users who were able to make fun of the most discussed candle of the moment. .

Controversy and jokes aside, the product, sold at the modest price of 75 dollars, immediately sold out, demonstrating how, at times, a candle throws more at the vagina than a cart of oxen. And would you buy it? But, above all, who would you give it to?

- What could we give to (name of your choice)? - Dunno, that one already has everything. - Come on, there will be something useful and enchanting that he does not yet have. A potato scented candle from Gwyneth Paltrow! And for next Christmas you are good too. # GwynethPaltrow pic.twitter.com/HGYK5gcWNt
