I didn't watch the video. Is the smell of the all new 7-Series any different than the smell of the prior model? I would think like my 5 and 3, the 7 smells like leather inside. Does it not?

All the best.

Some important questions:

1 - Will the scent interfere with the cologne I am wearing? In other words, will I smell like my car when I step out of it?

2 - Do they have any scents that can mask the smell of weed?

3 - Do the scents do anything to improve the driving dynamics?

4 - Also, why am I'm hearing crickets in the M Division?

5 - Is this girl single?

I noticed she said the smells were unisex. I guess that means the selection committee was composed of a bunch of unisexuals.
Probably the same group that picks their colors.

Lol. Thanks for the laugh. Quite possibly the same committee for the color selection. White, black, few shades of grey/silver in between, a blue and a brown.

Let that sink in, then reply.
+1, this is exactly the point, BMW always goes to the very max when it comes to engineering, R&D. It's incredible they went to the degree of hiring someone and paying them for 3 years to work solely on this project. Not sure any other manufacturer would take such small details so seriously.

Most of Creed's scents are unisex

Yes, there are sprays designed to mask mj however if you smoke the top notch, clinical dope with all the trichomes then you won't have to worry about the smell because you will be in another dimension as your cloned hologram

I had heard that the comment "this car really stinks" is a comment that is rarely mentioned in a BMW product, since someone is actually on the payroll causing this NOT to happen, good job BMW!

I am all for design and engineering but this is a bold move to impart the car with a sense of added luxury.

The way you smell or perfume yourself or your home is seen as a premium indulgence and this works to tie in to this market.

Also; if you are trying to create a premium lounge experience this adds another demension to cabin ambience.

I see people always buying those trees to put on the rear view mirror. This is just a better way of getting the scent spread out inside. I'd never buy it because I don't like fragrance in my car but I understand why they are making this.

I don't think an ambient scent should raise worry about interfering with the personal fragrance one is wearing. I think we are talking about subtle things in this case. Many hotels and department stores use fragrances in the ventilation systems to make clients feel comfortable.
By the way, if that woman works with House Creed that is great.
