A perfume composition having controlled release of phytoncides in an atmosphere in order to generate an air condition resembling the air environment of a forest is provided. The perfume composition includes a) at least about 0.6% by weight of at least one phytoncide; and b) a perfume mixture including (i) at least one solvent; and (ii) at least one fragrance ingredient. At least about 25% by weight of the at least one phytoncide is selected from the group consisting of pinene alpha, pinene beta and combinations thereof.

Some implementations of the present invention relate to systems and methods for diffusing scents to a given location by placing a scent reservoir within a vessel including an inner chamber, a vent, and a selectively closable opening. In some cases, the scent reservoir is secured within the vessel while allowing the desired aroma to diffuse into the surrounding area through the vent. In some cases, the inner chamber comprises a wall or layer that is less permeable to the scent than is the vent. Accordingly, in some cases, the inner chamber is configured to direct the scent from the scent reservoir to the vent, which is disposed at an outer surface of the vessel. While the vessel can be any suitable object, in some cases, it is a stuffed animal. Other implementations are also described.

The invention relates to a diffusing apparatus for diffusing a substance in the vapor state into the surrounding air, and in particular to a removable assembly of said apparatus which includes a storage container (10, 110, 210) including an orifice (12) and containing a liquid substance selected from semiochemical molecules, pheromones, allomones, kairomones, synomones and fragrances of natural or synthetic origin, and an inner cellular retaining member housed at least in a mouth area of the storage container which is adjacent to the opening and set back from the opening. The removable assembly of the apparatus may include a dispensing member (30) including a porous body having an evaporation surface located outside the storage container. The substance may have a viscosity which varies according to temperature, the viscosity and the surface tension of the liquid substance being such that when the acceleration due to gravity is exerted from the opening toward the porous body, the substance does not flow through the porous body at an ambient temperature below a first temperature.

The invention relates to a device for olfactory stimulation of a patient with a plurality of scents, said device comprising: —a source (2) of a carrier gas (G); —a plurality of scent odorization circuits, each odorization circuit (4) comprising: —a container (18) containing an odorous volatile substance (V), —a container inlet line (26), provided with a container inlet valve (28), connecting an inlet (30) of said container with said source of carrier gas, and —a container outlet line (36), provided with a container outlet valve (38), connecting an outlet (40) of said container with an exit line (12); —a control unit (8), configured to control said container inlet valve and container outlet valve according to a medical protocol.

The device for evaporating volatile substances comprises a container (1) housing a liquid with the volatile substances, and wick (2) in contact with said liquid and extending outside said container (1), wherein the device also comprises a porous element (3) placed inside the container (1) that is impregnated with said liquid with the volatile substances.

The presence of the porous element inside the container permits to place the evaporation device according to the present invention in any suitable position, preventing the leakage of the liquid and still allowing its correct performance.

An air treatment system is disclosed that includes a modular configuration whereby a fan module, filter module, and humidifier module may couple together to provide a plurality of air treatment solutions. In more detail, the modules can stack end-to-end in a vertical configuration. The modules may electrically couple to each other via a common electrical bus and enable a controller disposed in the fan module (or other module) to control fan flow rates, direction, and humidity. The fan module can include an articulating nozzle capable of directing airflow in virtually any direction and angle about an environment. The fan module can further include an inlet arrangement that can selectively restrict external air from entering the fan module housing when the fan module is fluidly coupled to the filter module. Thus, the fan module may generate air flow from exclusively filtered air to minimize or otherwise reduce bacterial/mold growth within the fan module housing.

The invention relates to the field of fragrance technologies, and specifically provides a vehicle and a control method of a fragrance of the vehicle, a fragrance unit, a vehicle, a computer storage medium, and a control apparatus. The fragrance system includes: a fragrance module including a housing and at least one fragrance chamber disposed in the housing, where an NFC antenna is configured above each fragrance chamber; and a fragrance unit, which is configured in the fragrance chamber in a removable manner and able to send forth a fragrance corresponding to the fragrance unit into target space when the fragrance module is enabled, where the fragrance unit is provided with an NFC tag that is loaded with identity information of the fragrance unit, where the NFC tag is disposed in the fragrance unit in a built-in manner. In this way, a fragrance unit can be reliably recognized based on NFC.

An airborne virus protection and disinfection (AIRVPD) device includes positive and negative electrodes arranged to form an electrode fluid path therebetween and a high-voltage converter configured to deliver power to the positive and negative electrodes to trigger a redox reaction. The AIRVPD device also includes a chemical disinfecting unit having a sponge material associated with at least one of the positive and negative electrodes and capable of becoming impregnated with an antimicrobial capable of killing airborne viruses. The AIRVPD device further includes a housing encasing the positive and negative electrodes, the high-voltage converter, and the chemical disinfecting unit. The housing includes an inlet and an outlet in fluid communication with each other via the electrode fluid path. Ionized air with charged droplets external to the AIRVPD device is able to flow through the AIRVPD device for disinfection and neutralization.

Disclosed are devices, systems and methods for controlling scent delivery by a scented article for beverage containers. In some aspects, a scent delivery system includes a cap attachable to a beverage container; and a scented article that couples to the cap, wherein the cap comprises a base, a movable component coupled to the base and able to move between a first position and a second position, and a scent chamber including an encasement to which the scented article is attached, the encasement coupled to the movable component or the base, wherein a portion of the scented article is exposed to air from an outside environment with respect to the cap when the movable component is in the second position, and wherein the encasement creates a contact seal to enclose the scented article within the scent chamber and lock in the scent when the movable component is in the first position.
