35. The “Smell-O-Vision” Perfume Sprayer Hat
In the 1960s, someone created a hat with built-in perfume sprayers that released fragrance whenever you nodded or moved your head. It promised to keep you smelling fresh all day.
The reality? People around you often got overwhelmed by sudden blasts of artificial scent. The mechanism sometimes misfired, causing unexpected sprays in the face. Fashion-forward or a walking hazard? Opinions varied, but it’s safe to say this invention didn’t last long in public spaces.
