Nobody likes waking up in the morning to the nagging， electronic bleep of regular alarm clocks or smartphones， but the smell of just-baked croissants and freshly roasted coffee？ Now youre talking.

誰(shuí)都不喜歡一大早被鬧鐘或智能手機(jī)嘮叨且有規(guī)律的電子噪音吵醒，但如果喚醒你的是剛出爐的可頌面包與新烘焙好的咖啡的香氣呢？這還差不多。

The Sensorwake， currently debuting at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas， takes a vastly different approach to getting your attention when its time to wake up. Instead of using sound to stir you， the clock uses smell， thanks to the “timed release of an aroma of your choice”.

這款最近在洛杉磯消費(fèi)類電子產(chǎn)品展銷會(huì)上亮相的名為Sensorwake的鬧鐘，能用一種完全不同的方式在早晨該起床的時(shí)候喚起你的注意。與用聲音驚擾你的美夢(mèng)相反，這款鬧鐘是用香氣，這得益于一種“隨心定制定時(shí)釋放的香氣”。

The device functions a little bit like a toaster， with reusable scent capsules inserted into a slot along the top edge of the clock. Each capsule lasts for “30 awakenings”， meaning youll get about a month out of a scent before you need to replace it.

這種裝置的操作原理有點(diǎn)類似于烤面包機(jī)，在鬧鐘的上邊緣的孔隙中放入了可重復(fù)使用的香囊。每個(gè)香囊能保證“30次正常喚醒”，這就意味著在你需要更換它之前你可以持續(xù)聞一個(gè)月同一種香味。

Aromas are bundled in packs. Theres a delicious-sounding “Continental Breakfast Pack”， which comes with one Espresso aroma capsule and one hot Croissant capsule. The “Enjoy the Break Pack” includes Seaside （Monoi， tiare flower） and Lush Jungle （cut grass and leaves）. Theres also a “Vitalization Aromatherapy Pack”， which offers a chocolate aroma plus invigorating peppermint.

喚醒你的香氣都封存在袋子里。有一種從名字上聽(tīng)就十分美味的“歐式早餐包”，其中包括一包意式特濃咖啡香包和一只熱可頌面包香包?！败跋汩e情包”包括“海邊”（Monoi，塔希提蒂亞蕾花香包）和“密林”（割草香味和樹葉香味包）。還有一種“激活式芳香療法包”，其中含有巧克力的香味外加令人神清氣爽的薄荷香味。

But do scents work as well as a regular audio alarm in terms of waking you up？ While we might hate the sound of conventional alarms， they seem to be jarringly effective for most regular sleepers. Rolland claims that the Sensorwake is just as good as audio alarms， with Internet testing showing his scent-based alarm wakes 99 percent of people in 2 minutes.

不過(guò)香氣真的能和常見(jiàn)的聲音鬧鐘一樣叫你起床嗎？盡管我們可能對(duì)傳統(tǒng)鬧鐘的聲音十分厭惡，不過(guò)似乎傳統(tǒng)鬧鐘對(duì)大多數(shù)的睡眠規(guī)律者都十分奏效。Rolland稱Sensorwake和聲音鬧鐘一樣有效，據(jù)網(wǎng)絡(luò)測(cè)試顯示，他研發(fā)的香氣鬧鐘能在2分鐘內(nèi)喚醒99%的人。
