A new fragrance swears it offers the distinct aroma of your favorite city. Spray it on, and you'll smell of New York, Paris, Tokyo, Miami, or 15 other metropolises. The bottles of the perfume, called Scent of Departure, are going for $45 at airport shops, reports MSNBC, with each labeled by the city's airport code. So what does New York smell like? "Recreate a walk in the middle of Central Park … with sparking and sourish notes of apple," say promotional materials. (More perfume stories.)
