Abstract: An air-freshener for a vehicle, in particular a motorcar, provided with a housing into which a container for a volatile liquid or a liquid containing one or more volatile components can be inserted, in the opening of which container a wick extending into the housing is fitted, and with a movable covering cap which, when the container with wick has been inserted into the housing, can cover the wick entirely or partially, and with a control member for setting the position of the covering cap. According to the invention, the wick is covered by a sideways movable covering cap, thereby making the air-freshener more compact.

Abstract: An antiperspirant system which includes a water-based antiperspirant which feels comfortable on the skin and a capillary aerosol dispenser is disclosed. The antiperspirant system includes: a pressurized container (51) in which a water-based antiperspirant composition with one or more astringent active salts and a propellant are present, a valved outlet (41) on the surface of the container through which antiperspirant is ejected into an inlet port (111) of a capillary tube (11), a capillary tube (11) with one inlet port (111) and one exit port through which antiperspirant is dispensed from the system, and a coupling means (12) to closely couple the inlet port of the capillary tube (11) to the valved outlet (41) of the pressurized container (51). The void volume between the inlet port and the valved outlet is minimized, such that upon use of the antiperspirant system, the valved outlet, the capillary tube, and the void volume do not become obstructed by solid deposits of the astringent active salt.
