The Ingredients in Commercial Air/Car Fresheners May Shock You

Take a look at the label of a well-known air freshener brand (hint: starts with "Febre***"). You’d expect something simple, maybe just a nice fragrance, right? Think again. It’s often a cocktail of 30+ chemicals you can’t pronounce.

When it comes to car fresheners, the formula gets even more complicated. Why? Because a car cabin experiences extreme temperature fluctuations, from freezing winters to scorching summers. This requires fresheners to release scent consistently under all conditions.

Here’s what goes into that:

  • Solvents: Help diffuse the fragrance across different temperatures.
  • Stabilizers: Ensure the blend doesn’t over-diffuse or destabilize.
  • Preservatives: Extend the shelf life of the product.
  • Synthetic Fragrance: For that strong, uniform smell.

While these ingredients may deliver performance, they’re far from natural. Isn’t it time for a freshener that works without a chemical overload?

Alternative? 

That's why we created a natural car freshener using nature's original ingredients, essential oils. You can check it out below
