Originally sold as Febreze Noticeable, the product has been redesigned and rebranded as Febreze Plug. If you have one of the older plug-in models with the tulip-shaped head, it can still be used with the current refill vials. Available in more than 20 dual scents, new floral, spice, and fruity scents are constantly being introduced to celebrate the changing seasons. Some of the newest offerings are the Febreze Light scents of Bamboo, Sea Spray, and Lavender for consumers who prefer lighter fragrances. Febreze Plug starter kits include the plug unit and one or two refills. The plug and refills can also be purchased separately.

How Does Febreze Plug Work?

A two-piece system, a glass vial containing two separate scents is inserted into the plug-in unit. The unit is then connected to an electrical outlet. The plug acts as a warmer helping to release the fragrances into the air. The warmer can be adjusted to emit the desired intensity of the fragrances. The vials of oil are designed to last for up to 1200 hours when used on low. When the vials are empty, the base unit can be reloaded with new vials and reused. The product ingredients are listed as odor blockers, odor eliminators, and fragrances. Febreze Plug uses aldehydes, which act as an odor magnet; odor-trapping starches, where macromolecules surround odor molecules so they fall to the ground instead of circulating through the air, and fragrances to replace malodors. To see a full disclosure of the ingredients in each different scent, visit the Febreze website and click on the Smart Label icon for each specific product. While most of the ingredients are synthetic chemicals, the product contains no dyes, phthalates, or formaldehyde.

How to Use a Febreze Plug

Final Thoughts

Febreze Plug was created to allow customers to periodically change the scent in a room while also removing unpleasant odors. The unit has a sleek design and easy to use. The range of a single Febreze Plug is limited to a single room. You’ll need to buy several if you want to freshen and scent an entire house. The scented oils can be an irritant to the eyes and skin. Always wash your hands after handling the vials. While Febreze Plug uses controlled particle sizes, that are nearly impossible to inhale deeply into the lungs, everyone’s sensitivity to fragrances is different. Anyone with concerns or compromised respiratory systems should consult a doctor before using any air freshening products.
