MacBook Pro Fragrance Created

Posted by samzenpus on from the smell-different dept.

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 got a few...
      "The new fragrance is called 'Smug'"
      "There's a $249 charge for Apple Aroma Care to keep your smell refreshed as new versions come out"
      "The first version of the atomizer will have a lot of features you never knew you needed, but later versions will drop those in favor of still other features you don't actually need at all, but will learn to rely on."
      "The bottle and spritzer are not upgradable, but why would you want to change perfection?"
      "Well, at least now I'll be able to smell a douchebag in advance so I can know when to take the next elevator."

    Well, people buy "new car" smell fragrances so I can see people buying this.
