There’s absolutely no bad blood between Gwyneth Paltrow and Kourtney Kardashian as evidenced in their latest project. On June 2, the two released a candle named “This Smells Like My Pooshy,” which is supposed to be a follow-up to Goop’s “This Smells Like My Vagina” and “This Smells Like My Orgasm” candles.
The Goop site notes that the candle features “creamy Tahitian coconut milk and rich gardenia butter blend with freshly crushed green stems and subtly earthy sandalwood,” and its scent is concocted to emit a vibe that is “luscious, sensual, and deeply intoxicating.” It retails for $75 a pop and also comes in a votive for $20.
While the whole project seems cheeky, Paltrow and Kardashian aren’t taking it lightly. They said that their joint project proves that women can work with one another, and not against each other. “I feel like part of the reason that the patriarchy holds its power is because they create this notion of scarcity for women and competition for women,” Paltrow said, per Harper’s Bazaar. Meanwhile, Kardashian said that she never let all the criticism and comparison get in the way of building and growing her brand. “I knew there was going to be comparison when we were starting, and I think that something my sisters and I pride ourselves in is being really supportive, too, of other brands in the same space, because there’s so much room.”
