The Asus Fragrance Mouse: Combining Tech And Aromatherapy

The mouse features an internal compartment that includes a "refillable vial for aromatic oils and scents."

Asus is renowned for creating cutting-edge computer hardware and accessories, but this latest offering is perhaps the most unexpected innovation to emerge from the Taiwanese tech giant.

The Asus Fragrance Mouse is an innovative mouse designed to dispense fragrance. Inside the mouse, there is a dedicated compartment housing a “refillable vial for aromatic oils and scents.” This vial can be easily removed by the user for cleaning and refilling with their preferred fragrance.

Beyond its unique scent feature, the Fragrance Mouse is just a basic computer mouse. It’s made from plastic with an ergonomic, contoured shape to ensure a comfortable fit in the user’s hand.

Equipped with PTFE feet, it promises “smooth, swift glides,” according to Asus. The mouse offers adjustable DPI settings of 1200, 1600, or 2400 and features low-noise switches rated for 10 million clicks.

Powered by a single AA battery, the Fragrance Mouse boasts a battery life of up to one year. It supports both Bluetooth connectivity (specific version not yet confirmed) and a 2.4 GHz USB-A dongle, which can be stored inside the battery compartment.

This compartment also provides access to the scented oil vial, allowing users to fill it with essential oils or other aromatic products of their choice.

The Fragrance Mouse is available in two colour options: Iridescent White and Rose Clay. As of now, details regarding pricing and availability have not been announced.
