I like to imagine I'm not overly susceptible when it comes to marketing but maybe I'm just lucky most of the market doesn't cater to my childlike whimsy.
I'm less susceptible to marketing because I always have adblockers active (where at all possible)! Most people don't even see the fact that they subject themselves to ads as issues, even after you show them how easy it is to set up adblockers in a webbrowser.
But this kind of marketing, it can't be easily blocked ...
I found non-invasive ads exceedingly rare in recent years. I sometimes tried putting certain sites from creators I want to support on allowlists and always went back almost immediately because the ads were so invasive. I'd rather donate to content creators (e.g. through patreon) than view ads, even $0.5 is probably worth years of consuming most ad-paid content, considering how little ads actually pay per visitor.
I've got good news for both you and people physically close to you!
I've only seen them in Germany, but they've got at least all three Kanto starters, Pikachu and Mewtwo for shower gels and Charizard, Lapras and Jigglypuff for bath additives!
We even have a Pikachu toothbrush and Pokemon themed tooth paste. All available at your average grocery stores around here.

The ones that don’t interrupt the thing I am doing/doesn’t obscure the thing I am doing (non-invasive ones?)are not an issue?
Surely you understand that these sites rely on ad revenue to stay free?

Does anyone suspect the recipient of this gift might never open the box to retain its value?
I know a collector's item when I see one. NRFB
Wow, they include soap AND a rope? Perfect.
The puzzle-shaped soap looks really cool ngl
I would love to get that as a gag gift
