Using regular cologne in the Scent bottle does not seem to work well.

Tried it with Tommy Bahama Maritime Cologne and it ran out in about 5 days. Seems like it needs to be thicker, oh well I guess I'll pay the money for the real stuff. I like the scent of the Freeside mood and it seems to last at least a half year.

that's the option i wish to have. Even found on youtube Chinese company does retrofit to E class (takes cutting space in the glove box, connecting the unit and reprogramming to enable control ).
May be sometimes later dealer would offer this as add on....

I have been using

my cologne in this system since October. If anything it’s a bit much... I keep my air freshener on low and I have to turn it off after a while... but wow does my car smell amazing

shout out to the dangling black ice... was a favourite back in the day... they were littered all over my truck lol

The scented air is an option, right? I don't think the car I took from the showroom floor had it...

Yes, you have to have the Air Balance Package which is a $350.00 option to have it. I had added that and the soft close doors to my order from last May as I got my 2015 S550 last June and realized those both were good features to have for cheap money. As I remember I think the soft close door option was a $550.00 option.

You're not saying you had them retrofitted are you? I'd happily do that but I don't think that's an option....

No, I ordered the car with these options.
