Sperm oil comes from sperm whales, they are an endangered species. Besides the oil was not used so much for cooking as for lighting.
Chanel does not use sperm whale oil in its products. While sperm whale oil, historically known as "spermaceti," was once used in cosmetics and perfumes, ethical and legal standards have since prohibited its use due to conservation efforts and the protection of marine life. Today, Chanel and other cosmetic brands utilize synthetic alternatives and plant-based ingredients to achieve similar effects without harming whales.
Oil from the sperm whale does not gel up in freezing temps like petrochemical oil does.
Lip gloss is made out of neither. It's acctually made out of jobala oil which comes from the jobala plant not fish scales or whale sperm. However it used to be made out of oil (blubber) from the sperm whale's head. But they didn't use whale sperm.

The sperm whale was hunted almost to extinction for its oil. Whale oil was used to light lamps, and thus there was always a great demand for it -- people needed it the way they need electricity today.

Lip gloss is not made from whale sperm; this is a common misconception. Some cosmetic products historically used a substance called spermaceti, derived from the oil found in the head of sperm whales, but modern formulations typically use synthetic alternatives or plant-based oils. Today, ethical and environmental concerns have led to the discontinuation of whale-derived ingredients in cosmetics. Most lip glosses now use substances like shea butter, beeswax, or synthetic polymers.
yes, it's even used as sperm expander in artificial insemination
For electricity it is still coal, for transport it is oil
