That Good Old Apple Smell

Okay, am I the only person who notices it? Have you ever got a brand new piece of electronic equipment, and noted a smell when it came out of the box? That nice, new electronic smell. Well, have you ever noticed how apple products have their own unique smell?I have bought several different apple products in the last year, including an iPod, iPhone, and now a MacBook. They all had that SAME apple smell out of the box.Now, if you’re a geek like me, you almost wish they would make a perfume out of it. It just smells that good…Well, either that, or it just reminds me of new gadgets to play with… But in any case, you know the smell I’m talking about, right?Even apple products I have had for awhile still have it if you pay close enough attention.What do you think about new gadget smells? Or do you even notice?Â

Yea i know that awesome smell. I never smelled an Apple product, but other new electronic produtcs smell awesome also. I ordered an iPod touch and a MacBook it will be delivered tomorrow.. then I can taste the smell.
I wish they would make a parfume of it like you said xD
Hey, why not make a petition on the net about apple and the parfume lol? Or write Steve an email.

I’ve noticed the same thing. Apple are very much into their product experience, especially the opening the box element. As part of this I think Apple purposely impregnate the smell into their products, I’m really intrigued to find out if this is the case and what the smell is made from.
Not sure I’d want it a perfume, maybe I could spray it on my PC. It might make a good car air freshener.
