Andrew Kim, a 16 year old high school wonderkind, has introduced a cell phone concept that looks like a perfume bottle and even dispenses a lavender aroma.
The lavender-colored phone, which is appropriately called the Lavender, has the speakers on the front, as well as displays showing the mobile’s battery life and how much perfume is left inside. Best of all, the phone allows for easy refills of the perfume when necessary.
In the dark, the phone is just as chic. The lights on the phone pulsate, so not only can it help you find your way, but it will literally make your cell phone the flashiest one at the clubs.
