Ever fantasized about sipping Jacob Elordi's bathwater after seeing Saltburn? While we can't offer that, we have the next best thing.
Directed by Emerald Fennell, Saltburn tells the story of Oliver (Barry Keoghan), an Oxford scholarship student from a troubled, drug-addled family who befriends the university's most affluent "it boy," Felix (Elordi). As the semester comes to an end, Felix invites his new friend to his expansive estate for the summer - but strange and unsettling events begin to unfold.
The movie released on Prime Video during Christmas has garnered significant attention, especially due to a controversial scene where Felix masturbates in the bath and Oliver sneaks in to lick up the ejaculate-polluted water from the tub’s drain. This scene is not even the most shocking moment in the movie. While it may make some viewers uncomfortable, if you happen to be part of the group that found it enjoyable, now is the perfect time to indulge yourself.

Comparisons have been made to Gwyneth Paltrow’s “This Smells Like My Orgasm” candle. "I'm afraid I know someone who might purchase it," one user commented. "Everyone is acting strange about this... I'm ordering five," another confessed.
"I despise this situation so much... is this really what our society has come to??? I am exhausted by these marketing ploys... unless it's the real water that flows over his hairy balls, I have no interest," commented a third person.
Just to clarify, these candles do not contain Elordi's actual bathwater. Although we can't say it will never happen (considering Amouranth mentioned a beer company wanting to use her "pap smear" for a drink), for now you'll have to settle for something else.
Elordi expressed his pride in seeing Keoghan's character consuming the bathwater. "I was honored to have Barry Keoghan drinking it like that," he said in an interview with Variety.

Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z fan, I find the Jacob Elordi bathwater candle both intriguing and unsettling. On the one hand, I can appreciate the creativity and humor behind the product. It's a unique way to capitalize on the popularity of the movie Saltburn and its controversial scene. On the other hand, I can't help but feel a bit uncomfortable with the idea of purchasing a candle that is supposed to smell like someone else's bathwater. It feels a bit too intimate and personal.
Overall, I think the Jacob Elordi bathwater candle is a clever marketing ploy that is sure to generate a lot of buzz. Whether or not I would actually buy one is another question. I think I'll stick to my regular candles for now.
