Al Hilal Bank recently released a credit card with a built-in "applet" that absorbs the smell of perfume, aimed at attracting female customers. The card also comes with a nicely boxed signature scent and a number of perks, from discounts for female-centric brands to airport lounge access.

The bank said that the card was designed for "young, ambitious and empowered women" as a way to stand out.

The bank also came out with a "selfie" credit card, which allows users to upload photos of themselves from their phones and have them printed on their cards.
