ASUS is making a ‘Fragrance Mouse,’ and it’s coming to the US

If you were paying attention to CES this year, you may have come across the Asus Aidol 14 Air Fragrance Edition’s curious gimmick: a magnetically-attached oil diffuser in the lid that emits the aroma of essential oils once the laptop heats up. Asus has now announced a “Fragrance Mouse” to go with it; and it’s coming to the US “around late April, early May,” company spokesperson Anthony Spence told The Verge in an email.

The Fragrance Mouse has a light-duty mousing layout of two buttons and a scroll wheel. Its trick is on the underside, where a small compartment holds a refillable vial you can load with essential oils of your choosing. It’s an otherwise standard affair — the mouse connects wirelessly over Bluetooth or a 2.4GHz wireless USB dongle, offers adjustable DPI (1200dpi, 1600dpi, and 2400dpi), and is powered by a single AA battery. Asus says it’s “available in distinctive Iridescent White or Rose Clay finishes.”

You may not be able to get a complete stinky laptop and mouse set, since the Adol 14 Air Fragrance Edition has only been released in China since being introduced in July 2024, as ArsTechnica notes. Spence was unable to confirm pricing details for the Fragrance Mouse in his email to The Verge.
