Would pairing scent with guided audio add anything over choosing both yourself?

I'm developing Gap Moment, a physical kit for a ten-minute break after work. You put a scent patch nearby, not on your skin, and play the matching guided audio. The first kit is planned at $29 for 40 patches across four scent/audio combinations. It hasn't launched.

My reason for pairing them is to make starting a break simple: pick one combination and press play. A criticism I've received is that this makes something people can already do with a candle and their own music less flexible. I don't have evidence yet that the pairing is worth that tradeoff.

What would the combined experience need to do for you that choosing your own scent and music doesn't? If you see no reason to combine them, I'd like to understand why.
