The new “Smellephants on Parade” interactive experience has made its debut in Storybook Circus at Magic Kingdom.
Smellephants on Parade
Smellephants on Parade is a “search and sniff” activity in Storybook Circus where guests can become a “Whiff-sistant” to Timothy Q. Mouse to find all eight Smellephant statues hidden in Storybook Circus.
Sponsored by Scentsy, each of the “Pink Elephants on Parade”-inspired elephants has a scent diffuser that emits a scent tied to its theme. Guests can begin the Smellephant hunt at the ticket book in front of Big Top Souvenirs, where Cast Members will provide them with an illustrated map of Storybook Circus and a sticker sheet.
The activity will run daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
A sign at the entrance of Storybook Circus advertises the new activity with a casting call from Timothy. This sign can be found throughout the land.
New theming has been added near the Storybook Circus station for the Walt Disney World Railroad.
Atop vintage suitcases are scent canisters themed to each of the Smellephants. Eight different varieties of these canisters can be found in Storybook Circus.
For the Churro Smellephant, it reads, “A celebration of cinnamon” and “Churro: a Storybook Circus Original.” Each one of the canisters has a Scentsy logo.
The Caramel Apple canister says, “Amazingly a-peeling” and “A Storybook Circus Original: Caramel Apple.”
The Popcorn fragrance canister says, “A Storybook Circus Original” and “Popcorn: A Buttery Bonanza.”
Pink Lemonade reads, “A Storybook Circus Original” and “Pink Lemonade: The Power of Sour.”
“The pop-ular classic” and “Bubblegum: A Storybook Circus Original,” are printed on the bubblegum canister.
Snow Cone is labeled with, “A Storybook Circus Original” and “An Aromatic Rainbow: Snow Cone.”
For the Cotton Candy scent, it says, “Confectionary perfection” and “Cotton Candy: A Storybook Circus Original.”
Finally, Corn Dog is described as, “A Storybook Circus original” and “Corn Dog: Courageously Corny.”
Also found in the land is a new poster design promoting Smellephants on Parade and the line-up of fragrances.
Smellephants on Parade Map
Here’s a look at the front of the map and the sticker sheet. Spoiler warning: If you’d like to discover all of the Smellephants on your own, we suggest not scrolling further.
The back of the map has a scene of Dumbo flying over four of the Smellephants.
The inside flap of the map features Timothy Q. Mouse.
Inside, you’ll find an illustrated map of Storybook Circus, with arrows pointing to the Smellephant locations. Attached to each arrow is a circle where you’ll place the stickers as you find the statues.
The sticker sheet is designed to look like a ticket. There are eight stickers, each with a symbol matching one of the Smellephants.
“Attached” to the map is a letter written by Timothy, thanking guests for signing up to join Dumbo’s new act and finding the Smellephants.
On the map, Timothy notes that he drew arrows to help guests find the statues.
Bubblegum Smellephant
This bubblegum machine-themed statue was installed on the opening day of Smellephants on Parade. Located by the Casey Jr. Splash ‘N’ Soak Station, it looks like a classic bubblegum machine, filled with gumballs. This one has a very faint scent of bubblegum.
The statue is depicted as playing a marching drum with the Smellephants on Parade logo painted on the drum head.
Pink Lemonade Smellephant
To the left of the bubblegum statue is this pink lemonade Smellephant. it smells of citrus and sugar.
Popcorn Smellephant
On the front-right of Dumbo the Flying Elephant, you’ll find this popcorn Smellephant. It gives off a sweet, kettle corn fragrance.
Snow Cone Smellephant
Over by the Lightning Lane entrance to Dumbo the Flying Elephant, you can spot this snow cone Smellephant. This one is faint, with a syrupy scent that you might smell while at a snow cone stand.
Churro Smellephant
The churro statue can be found by the exit of the Walt Disney World Railroad station in Storybook Circus. We couldn’t detect a scent on this one.
Caramel Apple Smellephant
In a flower bed to the right of the Big Top Souvenirs entrance is the caramel apple statue. It smells like an apple-scented candle.
Cotton Candy Smellephant
The cotton candy elephant is near the back entrance of Big Top Souvenirs. This is one of the stronger scents, with a cotton candy or fruity gum fragrance.
Corn Dog Smellephant
Finally, the corn dog Smellephant is located outside of the Pete’s Silly Sideshow meet and greet location. We find that it smells more like fried dough, similar to a funnel cake, than a corn dog.
Completed Map
Once you’ve found all of the statues, you can add the stickers to your map, completing the activity. If you don’t mind spoilers, this is what our map looked like once we found every Smellephant.
