Closet Air Freshener

eitaknna9 · August 2011

My closet seems to have a stale smell. It's hard to describe because it does not smell bad or anything, but definitely seems like it needs something to freshen the air. I am not big on can sprays, but something more natural. Any ideas?

Our house is old (1850s). Two closets in rooms without air-conditioning develop a stale smell every hot summer. I empty the closets and wipe them down with a white vinegar solution. I set a fan in each closet and let the fan run overnight. I then reload the closet with cedar hangers and the clothes for storage. It lasts for a year.

Bath & Body Works has a new item called Scent Portables. I keep one in my closet (and car).

I know this sounds ridiculous but I've actually used a Yankee Candle car freshener (normally in the Clean Cotton scent but I think they also have a Linen scent) for this in the past. I just would tuck it in the far corner of the closet (so not up against my clothes) and it wouldn't be too overpowering.
I like the cedar block idea.

Tide makes something for closets. There are like 6 little round gel "packets" in a package. I just hang one packet over a hanger and place in each closet. I have had 1 in each closet for apx. 1 year and I can still smell them. It just smells like fresh Tide. I don't typically like non-natural things but I like these. They don't add a smell to my clothes that isn't already there.
