Automatic deodorizer dispenser

18 automatic air freshener machines at Selfridges, London

An automatic deodorizer dispenser is an air freshener designed to release the encapsulated scent at a set time, or under preset conditions. Some fresheners operate by releasing a quick burst of scent every minute, 10 minutes, or 30 minutes so that you don't become too accustomed to the smell. Other kinds operate by having a light sensor or motion sensor attached, and releasing a burst of fragrance whenever this sensor is tripped.[1]

P&G plans to start selling Febreze in the early summer through a few web sites, with a price tag or $49.[2]
