This is the scene that everyone has been talking about for several weeks. In “Saltburn”, the bath sequence with Jacob Elordi and Barry Keoghan did not go unnoticed, even to the point of inspiring the scent of a candle put on sale…
This could be the subject of a joke and yet… Since its release, Emerald Fennell’s Saltburn has been on everyone’s lips – AlloCiné explains why here. This explosive thriller portrays a born manipulator, named Oliver (Barry Keoghan), who arrives in a family of aristocrats for a summer. Dark humor, scandalous scenes… The film leaves no one indifferent. Among the most striking sequences, there is that of the bath.
Warning, spoilers! This article looks back at one of the key scenes in Saltburn.
Oliver’s character is obsessed with his friend Felix (Jacob Elorbi), so much so that he gets into a bathtub to suck out the sperm of his friend – who masturbated just minutes earlier. This moment, as disturbing as it is astonishing, continues to make people talk on the Web. So much so that the Side Hustle Vibes brand now on sale a candle entitled “Jacob Elordi’s Bath Water”.
This candle comes in three scents: vanilla, “comfort spice” and sea air. It is available on Etsy sites for the whopping sum of 26 dollars and on Amazon for… 10 dollars more. “Nothing better than the smell of a quality candle, especially when that smell is inspired by Jacob Elordi and what we imagine his perfume to be“, specifies the product description.
This candle idea obviously allows the brand to fully capitalize on the phenomenon of the moment, here Saltburn. The company specializes in this type of “marketing stunt” with other similar products, such as candles with the scent of Harry Styles’ or Timothée Chalamet’s bath water. Notice to interested parties
Saltburn is available on Prime Video.
