💬 Usage Examples
“An alarm clock that wakes you with the scent of chocolate? It sounds like something Willy Wonka would create, but the Sensorwake Olfactory Alarm Clock is available from Harrods. Within two minutes of reveille, one of seven fragrances (including seaside, croissants, espresso, and grass) will intensify gradually until you are ready to face the day.” Katrina Burroughs; Katrina Burroughs Rounds Up the Latest and Cleverest Gadgets You Didn’t Know You Needed; Sunday Times (London, UK); Sep 18, 2016.
