We first caught wind of this hair dryer that emits a fragrance on RED (a.k.a. China’s Instagram). Weird or wonderful, we can’t decide – but netizens are raving about its refreshing campanula, or bellflower, scent that easily complements the hair dryer’s soothing ombre yellow and blue hues.

A beauty blogger says the fragrance has hints of elegant rose and lily of the valley.

This compact hair dryer is the Philips Small Fragrance Hairdryer BHD399, a new product that was released in China late last year.

Besides its beautiful pastel colours and fragrance-emitting capabilities, the hair dryer also uses mineral and negative ions to protect hair from harmful ultraviolet rays. Plus, it’s equipped with 1800-watt power that quickly dries hair, as well as a consistent temperature that doesn’t damage your strands.
