There are a plethora of USB gadgets out there and for a while I actually bought a few of them and found them rather amusing until I realised all these random gadgets simply took up my USB slots and I am left with no slots left for peripherals that I might actually need (you know, a keyboard, maybe a mouse). While wandering around Times Square in Causeway Bay today, I entered the JC Shop to see if there’s anything that would take my fancy and came across this; a USB fragrance diffuser. Masking as a thumb drive, this device takes power from the USB slot to heat up fragrance oils. This would be a rather nice add-on to normal thumb drives but I wouldn’t shell out money for it on its own. But then again, who knows, if you work at a particularly smelly office and would like to covertly improve your cubicle conditions without offending that stinky neighbour, maybe this is for you.

Available at JC Shop, Times Square (about HK$100)
