Some live chat conversations begin like a gentle breeze… and end like a scented soap-based fever dream.
It started, innocently enough:
Customer: “do you have any womble incense”
Now, there are many types of incense: sandalwood, nag champa, dragon’s blood… but not once, in all our years of running a holistic shop, has “Womble” been requested as a scent profile.
Was it a band? A cryptic brand? A long-lost product of 1970s children’s TV merchandising?
We didn’t know. But we replied with the calm confidence of those who do not stock Wombles:
“No sorry. That’s not something we stock.”
But the scent of mystery was far from over.
Customer: “do you have something that releases scent when exposed to hot water”
Customer: “a soap pistol in a gift box”
Now we were cooking — or steeping, or dissolving — in uncharted waters.
Clearly, this was no ordinary wellness enthusiast. This was someone looking for tactical aromatherapy. Weaponised soap. High-calibre hygiene.
We’re not saying we don’t love the idea… we’re just saying no one’s ever made a soap pistol in a gift box. Yet.
🧼 Moral of the Story:
At Onyx Dragon, we offer incense, teas, and holistic products for the body, mind, and soul. But every now and then, someone arrives with a request so oddly specific and charming that it belongs in a museum of modern retail.
We didn’t have Womble incense. We didn’t have a soap pistol. But we’ll remember the moment forever.
