A GWYNETH Paltrow’s wellness product has again made the headlines, according to the Sun.
A ‘This Smells Like My Vagina’ candle that Paltrow sells on her lifestyle website Goop has exploded into flames in the living room of Jody Thompson, 50.
The woman from United Kingdom had won the product in a quiz.
“The candle exploded and emitted huge flames, with bits flying everywhere,” said Thompson, a media consultant.
“I’ve never seen anything like it. The whole thing was ablaze and it was too hot to touch. There was an inferno in the room,” she added.
Thompson, who lives with her partner, David Snow, said they threw the flaming candle out the front door.
“It could have burned the place down. It was scary at the time, but funny looking back that Gwyneth’s vagina candle exploded in my living room,” she said.
Paltrow, 48, launched the US$75 (RM303) candle emitting her private scent in January 2020.
Scent notes include geranium, citrusy bergamot, and cedar absolutes juxtaposed with Damask rose and ambrette seed.
“This candle started as a joke between perfumer Douglas Little and GP,” reads the website.
“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. (That turned out to be perfect as a candle.)” – The Vibes, January 19, 2021
