  • Patent number: 6736335
    Abstract: A small, substantially flat, envelope-shaped scent dispensing packet contains a porous, absorbent scent emitting material which retains a desired scent or fragrance. Compressing the packet forces scent-laden air within the packet through an opening in the packet, thereby delivering the scent to a user.

  • Publication number: 20040000599
    Abstract: A scent dispensing packet for delivering a sample of scent laden air. A scent emitting material contained inside the small envelope shaped packet, having been exposed to a specific fragrance or scent through absorption, will retain said scent and will impart it to the air inside the hollow packet surrounding the scent emitting material. Squeezing the packet forces the scent laden air inside the packet out through a small opening in the packet outer wall thereby delivering a scent or fragrance sample directly to the user. Releasing pressure on the outer walls causes the packet to expand back to its original shape drawing air back into the packet. The outer walls protect the scent emitting material inside from evaporation thus allowing the packet to be used as a fragrance or scent sampling device repeatedly over a much longer time frame than current scent sampling devices allow.
