Let’s face it, unpleasant odors are going to be a part of your life. Whether you find them at home, at work, or in your car, managing these odors can greatly enhance the atmosphere around you! Recently, your normal air fresheners have come into competition with a healthier and more permanent solution, odor eliminators. But what really is the difference between the two?
Understanding Air Fresheners
Air fresheners come in various shapes and sizes, from plug-ins and aerosol cans to gels, sprays, and even small trees dangling from rearview mirrors. They are widely used for their ability to mask odors with strong, overpowering fragrances. Air fresheners typically rely on their fragrances to mask the odor rather than neutralize it.
- Pros of Air Fresheners
Air fresheners provide immediate relief by hiding the problem. The scents mask the consumer from the hostile odors by infusing the spaces with often chemically infused perfumes.
Because there is such a vast market for air fresheners, there are numerous scents and forms to choose from. Although, in theory, this can be a good thing, it often takes customers multiple purchases to find the desired scent for specific uses.
Their convenience is their key attraction. While they may be easy to use for quick cover ups, the long-lasting effectiveness is not one of their strong suits.
- Cons of Air Fresheners
While air fresheners provide quick relief, they merely mask the underlying issue temporarily by covering odors with fragrances. Since they do not eliminate the source of odors, their effects diminish over time. The real solution to eliminating odors does not involve adding more scents or different fragrances to the mix.
Many air fresheners contain artificial perfumery to cover-up odors rather than eliminating them. This increasingly sensitizes people and can lead to long-term health and respiratory issues like IEI (Idiopathic Environmental Intolerance). Continuous exposure to certain chemicals found in air fresheners has been associated with potential long-term health effects, including allergies, shortness of breath, brain fog, bronchitis, and other respiratory problems.
Understanding Odor Eliminators
Odor eliminators on the other hand, are formulated to neutralize and eliminate odors at their source rather than simply masking them. They contain active ingredients that engage with odor causing molecules to remove them.
- Pros of D-Odorizer
They target and neutralize the source of the odor, providing long-lasting and permanent results compared to temporary air fresheners.
Like air fresheners, there are tons of different odor eliminators on the market. This allows consumers to choose between various forms and application methods, including sprays, powders, gels, etc. D-Odorizer offers eight products for any of your odor elimination needs. Whether the odor is caused by a kitchen mess or Whiskers marking his territory, D-Odorizer has the perfect solution for you.
Unlike air fresheners, D-Odorizer uses eco-friendly, non-toxic, non-allergenic, non-aerosol, and environmentally safe ingredients, making it safer for indoor air quality and the health of your family and friends. This is important to note in case you have any young children or furry friends running around!
- Cons of D-Odorizer
While odor eliminators are not going to provide assorted, overpowering perfume-based products that hide odors, they will provide lasting effectiveness without the need for frequent reapplication, making them the superior choice in the long term.
Odor eliminators, like D-Odorizer, are often more targeted in their application. After identifying the source of odors, the trigger sprayers offer a better distribution method for target problem areas than a mist option. They dispense a concentrated stream of product, using less product than air fresheners do. This helps conserve product and saves the user money, all while maintaining air quality without creating clouds of fragrance.
Ultimately, you will make the best choice for yourself. If you value keeping a healthy and fresh environment with long-lasting odor elimination, D-Odorizer is your choice. D-Odorizer is formulated with Odor Absorbing Molecules (OAM) which operate on the molecular level to neutralize odors at the source. In addition to effectively eliminating the odors, D-Odorizer has both unscented and scented options for those who like the immediate relief light fragrances give you. This immediate relief dissipates swiftly, returning the space to net neutral as the OAM goes to work. D-Odorizer offers the best of both worlds!
