Following last night's surprise announcement by Disney of the 'Smellephants on Parade' addition to Fantasyland at Magic Kingdom, we have a few more details on what the new experience will involve.

Guests entering Storybook Circus will find a casting call from Timothy Q. Mouse, seeking out a "Whiff-sistant" to join Dumbo's newest act.

At the ticket booth in front of Big Top Souvenirs, Cast Members will provide a map and sticker sheet to guide guests in their training.

"Whiff-sistants" in training will explore Storybook Circus to find a number of Smellephants statues, each with a unique, circus-inspired fragrance - popcorn being one of them.

Scentsy will also sponsor Dumbo attraction as part of the multi-year partnership.

Scentsy entered into a multi-year relationship with the Walt Disney World Resort in 2021, which included the new experience in Fantasyland at Magic Kingdom, an exhibit at the EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival, and becoming the Official Home Fragrance of Walt Disney World.

I'm sure that its part of the sponsorship agreement to add more Scentsy exposure.

OH, like Magic Candle company already does? I have a POFQ lobby candle that smells just like that wonderful smell. I have never been disappointed in Magic Candle Co.

I mean, there was one for Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom when it was a thing. Wouldn't be surprised if it went into one of the rotating spots for stuff like that.

This is worthy of a poster? What did it replace?

The beauty of a three-sided polygon organization is that everyone can be the shop! Are you interested in joining the team? Potential is unlimited, probability not so much.

So where's the Scentsy shop? Surely they aren't going to just throw out some new smellitizers without offering the scents for sale...

Tell someone in Adventureland that they need one and then they’ll tell people in Frontierland and Tomorrowland so they want one of these and then they’ll tell someone in all of the Epcot lands who will tell someone in all of the USF lands and then we will have Smellephants in every town in Florida and eventually…the world.

This looks adorable! Like I know it’s an MLM. But this sort of thing needs to be in every land of every park: short, interactive scavenger hunts to add some capacity and visual interest. I’ll try to play it next time I’m down there.

This looks really great. Love the posters. Very fun. More things (not necessarily scentsy) should be added to the parks. Just little additions like this make it great.
