Slashdot Mirror
MacBook Pro Fragrance Created
First time accepted submitter GreenPages writes "There's a new signature scent for Apple fans — 'the scent of an Apple product being opened for the very first time.' Created for an art exhibition, the special fragrance is not for sale. From the article: 'The scent created with Air Aroma for Greatest Hits encompasses the smell of the plastic wrap covering the box, the printed ink on the cardboard, the smell of paper and plastic components within the box and, of course, the aluminum laptop which has come straight from the factory in China.'"
I'm sure if there was a way to capture the fragrance of throwing money out of the window, the mac crowd would buy that too.
slashdot troll = you make a compelling argument I do not like the implications of.
Of course it would, the fresh chinese factory worker smell really does a number on the olfactory!
Then the scent of a freshly opened Macbook Pro would be it. I had to open 40 Macbook Pros once and by the end I had a headache from that scent.
No, it smells more like a pretentious hipster douche-bag. Like B.O., a tall half-cap-mocha-chino with fair trade organically grown beans, and Patchouli oil, with a hint of too tight jeans and horn rim glasses.
I got here through a series of tubes
Don't worry, soon we geeks will have OpenSmug, LibreSmug, Gnarcissist, Konceit and, of course, Gnu Scent, which features six modifier squeeze-bulbs and a commented-out toe-lint include (the source comes with it).
