Air freshening with perfume oils dates back to ancient times…the Romans used to sell herbs loaded with scents, and homes would often have highly fragrant plants strategically placed about the rooms, in the Victorian era they would use perfumes on clothes, linen and in rooms to make everything smell nice. But in 1948, based originally off the insecticide dispensers used by the US military, the first aerosol spray air freshener was released and used a CFC propellant to disperse aroma compounds. A fine mist was sprayed out into the air, which allowed the mist to remain suspended in the air for prolonged periods of time. Whilst the technology has evolved to offer more creative, specific and personalised ways of clearing smells from your home, the science behind it is still very much the same - fine mists that linger in the air and over-power smells. Air fresheners cover-up bad odours with perfume. Deodorisers actually destroy bad odours and their source. Enter Whiff-Away, your little handy spray to deodorise any nasty smells, from the bathroom, to sports bags, dog or cat accidents - we have tested this on everything we can think of! These come in 10ml bottles, they have over 100 sprays in each one, they are are perfect for your bathroom or handbag and can be either scent free or with your favourite perfume; so it will smell like you have just wafted through a room.
