Anyone notice a scent in Model 3 LR cabin when you spray windshield fluid?

I have a Model 3 LR, anyone notice a scent in your cabin when you spray the windshield fluid? Is that a feature or an accident? It's not a bad scent, it's more of a clean scent, lasts for maybe 10-15 seconds after spraying the wipers.
 
The cabin air intake is at the base of the windshield, which is how the fluid’s smell makes it inside. Higher alcohol content fluid will have a stronger smell. You can also buy scent additives from your local auto parts store to make it smell like a variety of things. German vehicles typically activate recirculation mode when spraying the windshield, with varying success.

That’s all I know about that.
