The Lincoln brand of Ford Motor Co. in Dearborn is introducing its full in-cabin Digital Scent collection, now offering a total of seven fragrances in the all-new 2024 Nautilus luxury SUV.
Nautilus vehicles equipped with the Lincoln Digital Scent feature will come with its original in-cabin scents:
- Mystic Forest: A blend of cedarwood with notes of patchouli, amber, and yuzu citrus.
- Ozonic Azure: A fusion of aromatic patchouli and traces of freesia and spice.
- Violet Cashmere: A harmonization of violet, grapefruit, and golden citrus.
Four new available scents now added to the collection include:
- Cloud Balsam: A blend of pine needles, oak moss, crushed tonka, and vanilla beans.
- Serene Seashore: Hints of melon, lily, musk, and lemon.
- Twilight Embers: A suite of patchouli, floral jasmine, fresh apple, and deep leather undertones.
- Sunlight Retreat: Sandalwood and rose highlight this union and are accented by red fruit and balsamic notes.
“We are bringing Digital Scent to the all-new 2024 Lincoln Nautilus, allowing our clients to immerse themselves in revitalizing moments during their drive,” says Teresa Cheung, manager of client experience at Lincoln. “Personalization is important to our clients, and we have allowed them to select their preferred scent to customize their very own in-vehicle sanctuary.”
Lincoln says its engineers and designers have studied how the senses can impact mood, as well as physical and mental wellbeing, and how that translates into a relaxing experience for drivers and passengers.
“Scent is one of the five senses that has one of the strongest connections to not only memory, but emotion and can play a significant role in creating an experience for our clients on the road,” says Flore Tramblin, visualization designer for Lincoln.
Fragrances were created by perfumiers for the brand in collaboration with Lincoln designers. Lincoln specifically chose to work with fragrance suppliers that use International Fragrance Association (IFRA)-certified fragrances.
Each scent cartridge features a microchip and is controlled through the vehicle’s center stack touchscreen. The scenting experience also works in collaboration with the new Lincoln Digital Experience, which is easily customizable to let drivers extend their digital lives into the vehicle through their favorite apps and services.
Within the digital scent touchscreen, clients can select the individual scent and control the level of scent dispersion through three levels. Separate profiles also can be created to customize how the scent is dispersed throughout the drive. In addition, smart controls can be customized in the vehicle, allowing the driver to adjust the scent settings so one can relax and recharge while scent envelopes the senses with each ride.
Digital Scent cartridges diffuse from the center console, separately from the vehicles’ heating and cooling systems, so the driver can turn the scent on and off independently.
Lincoln Digital Scent cartridges are available for purchase on the accessories page of Lincoln.com, through Lincoln Access Rewards, and utilizing the in-vehicle QR code in the all-new Nautilus.
