Abstract: Systems, devices, methods, and compositions that improve the scent perception for a user. Improved scent perception is achieved by presenting alternating scents and by varying levels of output of scents, as well as by minimizing device clogging, thereby improving evaporation profiles.

Abstract: Air freshener products and methods for freshening air are disclosed. In some embodiments, the air freshening product may include a container for storing an air freshening composition that may contain compressed gas such as compressed air, nitrogen, nitrous oxide, inert gases, or carbon dioxide. When the container is completely filled with propellant and air freshening composition, the air freshening composition may be released from the container at a flow rate of from about 0.8 grams/second to about 1.5 grams/second, wherein the mean particle size of the released spray droplets is from about 10 microns to about 100 microns. The method of freshening air, in certain embodiments, provides improved delivery of an air freshening composition using a non-hydrocarbon propellant. If malodor counteractants are used, the method may also provide a reduction in malodors.

Abstract: Compositions for providing controlled-release of an active material comprise a dispersant and microcapsules containing the active material and a stabilizer. The compositions contain the dispersant and/or microcapsules at relatively low levels to avoid negatively impacting the surfaces treated with the compositions. The active material is preferably a perfume and the composition provides a controlled-release scent, along with controlling malodor when the compositions further comprise optional odor control agent. The stabilizer improves the stability of the microcapsule. Methods of providing a controlled-release of an active material on a surface comprise the step of contacting the surface with a composition comprising a dispersant and microcapsules containing an active material and a stabilizer.
