‘Chlorine’ and ‘burrito’ are just two of 31 bizarre candle scents from ‘stinky’ company
A range of scented candles with bizarre smells including ‘hippo poo’ and ‘chlorine’ are available to buy online, and no, we’re seriously not joking.
If a smell was capable of giving a hug, candles would be our way of bottling that so we can have one whenever we wish. Burning candles are a wonderful way to improve a room with a scent of your choice, and popular favorites like vanilla and cinnamon are go-to scents I’ll never tire of personally. Now, I’ve encountered some unconventional scented candles in my time, but nothing compares to what I found on ‘The Stinky Candle Company’.
‘Hippo poo’ scented candle and beyond
My surreal scented candle journey began by discovering one of the products available to purchase on the San Antonio Zoo website… the ‘Hippo-Love Candle’ from ‘The Stinky Candle Company’.
“Did you know, hippo poop is the cologne of the hippo world and is used to impress potential mates?” the jarring product description from the zoo reads. “So, if youre looking to turn up the heat and attract that special someone, our poop-scented Hippo-Love Candle is the rizz you need. The scent of seduction will have potential mates flocking to you like never before.”
The product is sold as a “one-of-a-kind candle [that] captures our famous hippo, Timothys, signature scent of hippo poop. Embrace the power of nature this Valentines season and give this memorable gift that will certainly take you from date to mate.”
It may be World Hippo Day this Thursday, February 15th 2024, but even the most passionate of, erm, animal aficionados, must admit this is pretty out there. Nevertheless, if you fancy picking one up, you’ll have to act quickly. The Hippo-Love Candle is priced at $14.99 and the last day available to purchase is Sunday, February 18th 2024.
However, hippo poo is merely the tip of the iceberg, and it only gets weirder from there.
The Stinky Candle Company scents are insane
The hippo poo scented candle is just one of numerous strangely scented products from The Stinky Candle Company.
With each candle made by hand, the midwestern startup’s “goal is to provide you with a memorable experience, make you smile, and capture the worlds finer stenches in life.”
