Soot Ball

Product Story

See my 3 minute video of this below.  

 

 

Earlier this year, the Gorilla Perfume team hosted a ‘scented cinema’ event at which Hayao Miyazaki’s film Spirited Away was shown. This bath bomb is inspired by the ‘soot gremlins’ from his films – little creatures that dwell in the shadows of houses that, when crushed between the hands, dissolve into black soot.

Description:

He’s watching you…!

Let this surprising little bath bomb spirit you away into a golden, lustre-filled bath.

Don’t worry, Soot Ball won’t turn your bath water black – instead we’ve filled this bath bomb with radiant golden lustre, to feel as though you’re bathing in luxurious liquid gold. The olibanum (frankincense) is known for its calming and grounding effect on the mind, whilst the burnt caramel scent of tonka absolute and earthy sandalwood oil together create a sweet, spicy fragrance that wafts through the steam.


Here’s the video i made of this gorgeous little Soot Ball in the bath.

Lush Times Xmas 2008: A bubbling cauldron with a magical blend of reviving herbs. This bewitching ball of bubble mixture is a deep fuchsia colour like the very edge of sunset as it’s enveloped by encroaching indigo. It is studded with star anise seedpods, cloves, blackcurrants and cranberries and scented with a blend of essential oils to make a helpful potion in your bath. Rosemary, sage, peppermint, frankincense, myrrh and benzion make it a mystical mixture to clear emotional barriers and give you mental clarity. We scatter in some fresh parrsley for good luck. Bathe in this brew as often as you can before it disappears at the end of the year; make your resolutions as you bathe, let all your mental blockages dissolve in the bath water and disappear down the plughole. Now follow your dreams.

I love the smell and the way it makes the water look. These are really dark purple when they’re fresh.

They smell like herbs and spices. Spicy like cloves. Its not sweet. Love it!
