The Scentorini Citronella Spray is a plant-based air freshener utilizing lemongrass essential oil. It is designed for area treatment during outdoor activities such as camping or hiking. The dual-pack configuration provides a total of 13.5 oz of fluid, housed in HDPE bottles that are built to resist chemical degradation from the oils.
Practical testing indicates that as an essential oil emulsion, the scent requires frequent re-application—often every 20 to 30 minutes—to remain effective in open-air settings. The mechanical pump is designed for a fine mist, but because natural oils can settle, it is helpful to shake the bottle before each use to ensure the spray remains consistent and doesn't clog the nozzle.
While the spray is an effective alternative for those avoiding synthetic chemicals, it is important to store the bottles vertically. High-heat environments, such as the interior of a parked car, can cause the air inside the bottle to expand, which may lead to leaks if the seal is not perfectly tight.
If you require a more stationary solution for your patio, the Mosquito Guard patio candle provides a long-burning scent without the need for manual spraying.
