Abstract
A fragrance release system having a substantially rotationally symmetric container having a chamber accommodating a multitude of particles for deodorizing or fragrancing an open or closed space, the particles comprising a carrier material and at least one fragrance, and the container having a plurality of orifices through which emission of the fragrances of the particles from the accommodation chamber outward is possible, wherein the accommodation chamber (3) of the substantially rotationally symmetric container (2) has a crescent-like cross-sectional shape with a convex front wall (5) and a concave back wall (6).

A fragrance release system comprising a substantially rotationally symmetric container having a chamber accommodating a multitude of particles for deodorizing or fragrancing an open or closed space, said particles comprising a carrier material and at least one fragrance, and said container having a plurality of orifices through which emission of the fragrances of the particles from the accommodation chamber outward is possible, wherein the accommodation chamber (3) of the substantially rotationally symmetric container (2) has a crescent-like cross-sectional shape with a convex front wall (5) and a concave back wall portion (6), wherein the accommodation chamber (3) is filled virtually fully with particles (4) and wherein the container (2) is in two parts, one part (2′) having the wall (6) and the other part (2″) having the front part wall (5).
A method for deodorizing and fragrancing a space, comprising the steps of introducing into the space a fragrance release system comprising a substantially rotationally symmetric container having a chamber accommodating a multitude of particles for deodorizing or fragrancing an open or closed space, said particles comprising a carrier material and at least one fragrance, and said container having a plurality of orifices through which emission of the fragrances of the particles from the accommodation chamber outward is possible, wherein the accommodation chamber (3) of the substantially rotationally symmetric container (2) has a crescent-like cross-sectional shape with a convex front wall (5) and a concave back wall portion (6), and heating the system to a temperature between 30 and 150° C. before or during use.
