As a laptop reviewer,порнография или искусство I can tell you that Asus is arguably the most innovative laptop company on the planet. From the ultra-bizarre ROG Flow Z13 ACRNM gaming laptop, which can transform into a crossbody bag, to the eye-catching, dual-screen ZenBook Duo, Asus always had me scratching my head or dropping my jaw to the floor.
However, nothing could have prepared me for the latest device to come out of the Taiwan-based company: a fragrance-dispensing laptop (h/t Tom's Hardware).

Yeah, it seems like your average laptop (with a zippy panel and performant CPU) — save for the fact that there's a fragrance dispenser on the lid. It comes with the following three fragrances:
Basil and Mandarin
Be a New Her
Rose of Man's Land
You can swap between the trio of scents any time you run out. However, you can't stick any ol' scent into the lid.
Credit: Asus You'll have to stick with the fragrances Anna Sui makes for the Adol Book 14. It's worth noting, though, that none of the aforementioned laptop fragrances have existing Anna Sui perfume counterparts.

The listing also mentions that the laptop supports an AI assistant that can double as a companion for users, answer questions, help with coding, and more. (It's unclear which AI architecture underpins this chatbot.)
Credit: Asus The bundle is priced at less than $1,000. If you're outside of Asia, and you're interested in the Adol Book 14, I have some bad news for you. The Adol Book 14 is only available in China.
Interestingly, as odd as this fragrance-dispensing laptop may sound to you, it's not the first time I've heard of one. At CES 2024, Lenovo showcased a concept laptop that comes with a snap-on attachment that sprays out aromatherapy fragrances.
