That's my biggest problem with the thing. It's a replica of a smell. This kind of ruins the whole concept to me. At first I was really interested, but once you realize that they haven't actually transmitted the smell itself...rather just a guesstimation at what it might smell like...it becomes (as you said) a novelty item.
