Abstract
An aroma-dispensing tab that is stickable onto any surface, such as an article of apparel, to exude a pleasant fragrance or to function as an insect repellent. The tab is in the form of a sac constituted by a base having a perforated dome marginally secured thereto to define a vented chamber occupied by an absorbent pad saturated by a liquid scent. A layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive on the underside of the base makes it possible to attach the tab to any surface.
Claims1
A perfume sampler constituted by a card having an array of individually removable, hermetically-sealed, rupturable metal foil plastic laminate packages thereon having a rectangular form and separate from each other, each housing an aroma-dispensing button-shaped tab that is removable from the ruptured package and is stickable onto any surface, each of said tabs comprising:
- A. a sac of synthetic plastic material non-reactive with liquid perfume and formed by a base having a perforated dome marginally secured thereto to define a vented chamber, said base having a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on its underside covered by a peel-off sheet;
- and
- B. an absorbent pad disposed in said chamber saturated with a liquid perfume scent to exude a desired aroma through the perforated dome when the tab is removed from its hermetically-sealed package, the pads in the array of packages having different scents which are identified on the packages so that a consumer can try out the various scents without having to purchase separate bottles thereof.
