Every once in a while, we find ourselves scrolling through shopping networks when something oddly unique catches our eye. In this case, it focused on Johnny Depp… our favorite Pirates of the Caribbean (2003) star as Captain Jack Sparrow.
Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow
Johnny Depp is an accomplished actor known for his portrayal of Captain Jack Sparrow in Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean film series – a series themed after the beloved Disney attraction Pirates of the Caribbean at both Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California, and Magic Kingdom Park near Orlando, Flordia. While Captain Jack Sparrow is one of Johnny Depp’s most iconic and beloved roles, he has earned widespread recognition from various films, such as Fantastic Beasts (2016) and Tim Burton films, including Edward Scissorhands (1990).
As the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise grew, fans’ adoration for Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow was fostered. The quirky, witty, and unpredictable pirate has grown to be one of the most iconic Disney characters. Even now, Depp fans plead for Disney to revive his role as Jack Sparrow for future Pirates of the Caribbean movies.
Amber Heard vs. Johnny Depp
But, alas, Depp’s path to stardom has been met with some scandal, particularly coming to light when a complex legal situation arose involving Johnny Depp and his ex-wife, actress Amber Heard.

The legal dispute began after Johnny Depp filed a defamation lawsuit against Amber Heard in 2019. The couple had a highly publicized divorce in 2016 after a brief marriage. Amber Heard, in response, filed a countersuit against Depp.
During the legal proceedings, both Johnny Depp and Amber Heard made serious accusations against each other. Johnny Depp claimed that Amber Heard had physically abused him during their marriage and provided evidence to support his claims. He also denied allegations of domestic abuse made against him by Heard during the trial.
Amber Heard, on the other hand, accused Johnny Depp of domestic violence and provided evidence to support her claims, including photos of injuries she allegedly sustained during their relationship.
The legal battle was extensively covered in the media, and the public nature of the accusations impacted both actors’ reputations.
Johnny Depp Makes a Comeback
Fast forward to the present day, and many believe Johnny Depp has made a comeback in his career following the legal battles and controversies surrounding his personal life. Depp seemingly has been actively working on various projects and trying to rebuild his reputation in the entertainment industry.

Johnny Depp has gained much support from fans, particularly his loyal fan base that has stood by him before, during, and after the legal allegations. Most recently, Depp had a health scare while touring with his musical group, “Hollywood Vampire,” which was formerly led by the now-deceased Grammy winner Jeff Beck. Again, his fans stood by his side and shared their concerns for his well-being. Thankfully, reports now show he has returned to a healthy status as the band continues to tour.
But, Do You Want to SMELL Johnny Depp?
While we are thrilled to see Johnny’s fan base uplift and support him, a new piece of merchandise seems to be growing in popularity that we can’t overlook. You can now have Johnny Depp’s smell in your home.

No, we aren’t talking about Depp’s own line of colognes, such as one popular fragrance called “Sauvage” by Dior. And no, this has nothing to do with that musty water and burning village smell you’ll find surrounding Captain Jack Sparrow on the Pirates of the Caribbean attractions at Disney theme parks. Instead, this is a candle, readily available for purchase on Amazon.
Smells Like Johnny Depp Candle
According to one provider, C&E Craft, on Amazon, you can purchase a “Smells Like Johnny Depp” candle with the notation, “Being the man of your dreams.”

What’s the fragrance C&E Craft believes will have your home filled with the smell of Johnny Depp? Well, apparently, it is a refreshing aroma of bourbon vanilla soy wax.
As you can see, the candle is simple enough, but would surely brighten a Johnny Depp fan’s day to receive in the mail. Of course, we highly doubt a study of Depp’s smell was considered for this candle, but as least it would be a fun gift to share with friends and family that admire Johnny Depp, the true Captain Jack Sparrow.
The bottom line… me hearties… you can find just about ANYTHING on the Internet! Happy shopping, Disney fans!
