A free-standing ecological multi-purpose device made of a plant polymer, for progressive release of fragrances and scents into an environment, the device comprising:
- a first hollow external cylindrical support, provided with an outer surface and an inner surface;
- and
- a second internal cylindrical support having an outer surface, the first hollow external cylindrical support being configured to be slidably reversibly engaged with the outer surface of the second internal cylindrical support of a same length, concentric and coaxial with respect to said external cylindrical support and internally hollow, said second internal cylindrical support being arranged in a first closed configuration, the inner surface of the first hollow external cylindrical support and the outer surface of the second internal cylindrical support being fully at contact with each other, said second internal cylindrical support being configured to take a second open configuration;
- and
- a base support,
- wherein said second internal cylindrical support, sliding axially with respect to said first hollow external cylindrical support, projects beneath with respect to said first hollow external cylindrical support to enable a user to insert the second internal cylindrical support into the base support that includes a lower flat resting surface and an upper cylindrical projection centrally provided with a central hole and configured to be engaged with the lower portion of the second internal cylindrical support, said upper cylindrical projection being provided with a plurality of aeration holes, sliding of the second internal cylindrical support with respect to the first hollow external cylindrical support, exposing a predetermined portion of the inner surface of said first hollow external cylindrical support and a similar outer surface portion of said second internal cylindrical support,
- wherein a predetermined amount of at least one common scent being applied, in any manner, on one or more of:
- (i) the inner surface of the first hollow external cylindrical support and (ii) the outer surface of the second internal cylindrical support, said inner surface of the first hollow external cylindrical support and the outer surface of the second internal cylindrical being configured to release a predetermined and controlled amount of the scent into the environment when said second internal cylindrical support is in said open configuration, said second internal cylindrical support being provided with a plurality of break-lines, equally spaced from each other, configured to enable the user to remove, in an accurate and predetermined manner, the portions of the second internal cylindrical support delimiting said break-lines to be able to spread the scent in the environment in a controlled manner, when said free-standing device is placed vertically on a flat surface, said break-lines being configured to serve as a gradual scale to regulate the amount of scent released into the environment.
