Catchy title dont ya think? There is currently a movement to scent DVD’s. Yup, movies scented like popcorn or pizza and if you’re not a streamer you’ll be graced with scent warmed on the ink of the disc.
Here in the US we stream more than Redbox and services like Netflix make it so simple your ass never needs to leave the couch. BUT in places like Brazil where how your ass looks is more important than your IQ they still get up and move and DVD’s are still the norm.
In partnership with ten video rental stores in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, Domino’s Pizza used rented DVDs as media. About ten discs each of ten different new release titles such as Argo, 007, Dread And Dark Knight were stamped with thermal ink and flavored varnish, both sensitive to the heat. While people were watching the movie, the heat of the DVD player affected the disc. When the movie ended and they ejected the disc, they smelled pizza. They also saw pizza: the discs were printed to look like mini pies, and carried the message: “Did you enjoy the movie? The next one will be even better with a hot and delicious Domino’s Pizza.”
This of course got me thinking about pizza…..and music. Imagine if you will scented CD’s. Now granted we also don’t use CD”s anymore but with the resurgence of vinyl who knows- CD’s can make a comeback and when they do- they should be smell infused!
So here are some artists with the fragrance I suggests best suited to their style
Pitbull- Halston Z14 cologne
Morrissey, fresh cut grass
Justin Bieber- bubblegum
Beatles citrus
Bob Seger sweaty tshirt
Ramones pizza
Sex Pistols burning spoons
John Mellencamp car exhaust
Kid Rock beer and urine
Willie Nelson weed
Snoop Lion weed
Bob Marley weed
You get the point, it’d be pretty fun.
