Brilio.net - Air fresheners are one of the important elements in creating a comfortable and pleasant atmosphere in the house. With various aroma variants available, air fresheners are able to present a fresh scent that can calm the mind and improve mood. Its main function is to neutralize unpleasant odors and give a clean impression to the room.
However, one of the main challenges of using air fresheners is that their scents fade easily. Air fresheners, especially those that are spray or gel-based, often only provide a temporary effect.
After a few hours or days, the scent will disappear and the room will return to its original state. This requires the user to replace or re-spray the freshener regularly.
To save more, you can use air fresheners like those used by Instagram user @safaralles. Through one of the videos she uploaded, she claimed to be able to make natural and long-lasting air fresheners. Who would have thought, one of the ingredients used came from the kitchen.
As reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @safaralles on Thursday (10/31), the ingredient used is salt. Well, this salt has a number of important functions. In addition to absorbing bad odors, salt can also enhance the aroma of the fragrance used.

Salt has the natural ability to absorb moisture and unpleasant odors from the air. When used as an ingredient in air fresheners, salt can help neutralize unpleasant odors, such as food odors or excess humidity, leaving the air in the room fresher and cleaner.
On the other hand, salt can act as a diffuser of aromatic materials. When salt is mixed with fabric freshener, it will help to spread the scent evenly throughout the room. This mixture can be placed in open bowls or small cloth bags placed in various corners of the room to provide a long-lasting scent.
