from the my-new-Macs-smell-like-apples dept.

Can you even remember what a new Mac smells like?

Is it distinctive? Does it have something unique about it? Or is that smell merely the result of your excessive excitement at buying one?

I only ask because Twelve South, which makes Apple accessories, has released something called the New Mac Candle.

It's made of 100 percent soy wax. I assume that's a good thing. You, though, will be wondering what a new Mac smells like. In candle odor terms, that is. New Macs smell of mint, peach, basil, lavender, mandarin and sage, according to Twelve South.

What does a new PC smell like? And thus, a new meme is born...

    100 percent soy wax

    As a representative of the SoylentNews Public Beneficiary Corporation, I for one would like to assure the community that we're not turning our users into wax to make mac-scented candles.

    Just food... nothing to see here, folks.

    Hey, you! Yes you, stroking the fur and smelling the bars of soap... move along. Just food.
