A carton for selectively diffusing an air freshener material to the atmosphere includes a first imperforate outer sleeve open at opposite longitudinal ends slidably receiving a second inner sleeve therethrough housing a cake of air freshener. The second sleeve includes a plurality of openings on the lower half of the sleeve which are selectively opened and closed by movement of the first imperforate sleeve relative to the second sleeve. The second, inner sleeve has a sealed closure at opposite ends including a panel extending beyond the side walls thereof for abutment with the upper and lower edges of the first outer sleeve to preclude disassembly of the first and second sleeves.
