Artists bottle the smell of a brand new MacBook Pro
Considering that there are air fresheners which help you keep that “new car smell” lingering long after your ride is beaten and battered, we shouldn’t really be surprised that there’s now a similar product for that new Apple gadget smell.

“I asked him if he would come up with a few options. And he said, ‘No, I will solve your problem for you, and you will pay me. And you don’t have to use the solution — if you want options, go talk to other people. But I’ll solve your problem for you the best way I know how, and you use it or not, that’s up to you — you’re the client — but you pay me.’”
