FAQ
Car Air Fresheners
Do the air fresheners come pre-scented?
Nope your car air freshener is a blank canvas ready for you to make it your own with 1-5 drops of your favourite essential oil or fragrance oil.
What if I slam on the breaks? Will this cause damage?
These have been tested thoroughly, and are linked tightly to the rear view mirror, there is not a hanging bit left. In your package you will receive an instruction pack that will detail how to hang it in the safest way. The cord wraps several times around the hanger to ensure there is no swing, Alternatively, if you don’t want it hung you could always sit it in a cup holder, etc. It’ll work just the same!
How does this work?
When clay is fired in a kiln (temperatures upwards of 1500 degrees Celsius), the clay becomes porous and creates little mini air pockets. Because of this you drop essential oil onto the raw side of the clay, the side that’s left unglazed. The oil absorbs in and diffuses back out.
How long does it last?
This air freshener will last you indefinitely, you just need to add more drops of scent to it as it diffuses.
How much essential oil should I put on it?
We recommend 1-5 drops every few weeks! This can differ depending on how light/heavy you prefer the scent.
Is this really cheaper than buying the cheap ones over and over when I have to buy the essential oil for this anyways?
Let’s dive into it! A regular cheap air freshener (think the ones you find at Walmart, or the dollar store) lasts approx.. 4 weeks. The average cost for this is approx. $1. So at this rate let’s say a whopping $12ish a year. Now let’s look at these. The air freshener is gorgeous and done by a local potter – so it is beautiful, and hand made. This is the priciest bit. But this air freshener will last you indefinitely could even outlive you. We recommend dropping 1-5 drops on lets say every three – five weeks, so we will even it out at four. Our particular essential oil bottles – the cheapest is $8 has 300 drops in it. So at 3 drops every four weeks – that vile can last you upwards of 8 years. So using this model over 8 years with a traditional car air freshener you would create waste, and pay approx. $96 for tacky, wasteful car air fresheners. And with ours over the course of 8 years (including the initial investment) you would pay $23!
