There must be one in every room.

We don’t think we will ever hear the end of Gwyneth Paltrow’s vagina candle. Never have we seen the world go so mad over a candle. So much so that it actually sold out on Goop (very quickly).

One of the reasons why, though, might be because Elton John has reportedly bought them in bulk - according to perfumer Douglas Little, who worked with the Oscar-winning actress to make the $75-each wax creation.

‘We have been hounded and stalked by so many people,’ he told The Cut. ‘I saw the candle being sold on eBay for a ridiculous price. Elton John bought a ton of them. Like a lot. Like, a lot a lot. He’s a fan.’ Wow - there must be one in every room.

So what does this head-line grabbing candle actually smell like? According to Heretic, the thoroughly Instagram-able brand behind the showstopper, we have to 'imagine a bundle of roses wrapped in suede'. It's a 'voluptuous scent of fantasy and seduction. Made with a combination of natural and safe synthetic fragrance' with top notes of bergamot, geranium and cedar, heart notes of damask rose and a base of ambrette seed.

Elton isn't the only big name who's a fan of the unconventional scent - another celeb who has admitted she wants to get her hands on one is Holly Willoughby. Speaking on This Morning, she asked, 'Is it wrong that I want to buy one?’ Now's probably the time to admit that we really want one, too.
