I wonder just how bad those essential oil diffusers are, compared with, say, smoking, laser printers, and tyre microplastics.

My plan to sell flavoured printer toner has been foiled.

Who would not want their print out to smell like fresh apple pie?

I mean scented markers are a thing (or are they gone now because they’re “too toxic”?) so scented (or flavored) printer toner doesn’t seem too far fetched

and yes I am one of those people who enjoyed the smell of freshly laser printed pages

Also scented paper

Maybe offer unique toner scents to companies as part of their brand identity. Imagine all letters from Jack Wolfskin smelling like pine cones, or the acceptance letter from a surf school smelling like the ocean.
