Germany's smelly Xmas cards

Germany's post office is giving away millions of free scented stickers this year to make Christmas cards smell of honey and fir trees.

Recipients have to rub the stickers to release the smell from the stickers.

The post office began giving away the selection of stickers this week in its shops and delivered 20 million sets free to German households as a promotional campaign to prove that letters can do something emails cannot.

The six available coloured stickers show and smell of a Christmas tree, cinnamon, gingerbread biscuits, a honey-wax candle, a baked apple and an orange.
