The Rise of Microplastic-Free Laundry Solutions in 2025

In 2025, conscious consumerism is not just a trend. Instead, it is a way of life. From what we eat to what we wear and wash, people around the world are becoming more mindful of the environmental impact of everyday choices. One growing area of concern? Microplastics. These tiny particles have found their way into oceans, soil, air and even into our bodies.

In this blog, we will explore what microplastic-free living means in 2025 and why it is at the heart of the modern sustainable lifestyle. We will also take a closer look at how everyday habits like adding scent boosters to laundry can be upgraded for the better. So, let us begin!

What the eco-conscious laundry shopper wants in 2025

Consumers in 2025 are more informed than ever. They are reading labels, questioning ingredients and choosing brands that align with their values. Here is what the conscious laundry shopper is looking for today:

Microplastic-free formulations

Many regular laundry products, like scented beads and fabric softeners, use plastic coatings to release fragrance gradually. While they make clothes smell nice, these plastics can break down and pollute water with microplastics every time you wash.

In 2025, more people are looking for options that smell just as good but are good for the planet. They are choosing plant-based, biodegradable and microplastic-free products for a fresh scent without the environmental harm.

Thoughtful packaging

Sustainability goes beyond just the product inside. Eco-conscious shoppers also care about the packaging. Is it reusable, recyclable or compostable? In 2025, smart brands are making sure everything inside and out is designed with the planet in mind. 

Transparency and clean ingredients 

Gone are the days when long, confusing ingredient lists were okay. Today, people want to know exactly what is in the product, why it is there and how it affects their health and the planet.

That is where forward-thinking brands come in, those that focus on being clear and honest. They use natural fragrances and safe methods to freshen clothes in an eco-friendly way.

The hidden threat of microplastics in everyday laundry

Microplastics are tiny plastic particles less than 5 millimeters in size. They are either manufactured intentionally (as in microbeads once found in face washes) or result from the breakdown of larger plastics. These particles do not dissolve or degrade and can remain in the environment for hundreds of years.

From synthetic clothing fibers that shed in washing machines to detergents and laundry additives with plastic-based ingredients, household routines unknowingly contribute to the microplastic problem.

And since wastewater treatment systems are not fully equipped to capture these particles, they often end up in our rivers, oceans and eventually in marine life. In short, what we wash down the drain does not just disappear. 

The shift to natural scents: Fresh laundry without the plastic

Fragrance is what makes laundry feel good, but it does not need synthetic chemicals or plastic to smell great. Natural scents from essential oils are becoming the top choice. They are better for sensitive skin, cleaner for indoor air and safer for our waterways.

People now prefer laundry products that give a light, fresh scent from natural ingredients, instead of strong, artificial perfumes. This is where microplastic-free scent boosters are making a big difference. 

Simple steps for sustainable laundry

Living sustainably does not mean changing everything at once. It is about making small, thoughtful choices that add up. When it comes to laundry, here are a few easy habits to help reduce your environmental impact and live without microplastics:

Air dry when you can

Tumble dryers are easy to use, but they can damage fabrics over time. Air drying your clothes helps keep them in good condition, saves energy and reduces pollution. 

Rethink waste

Every little thing counts, from packaging to waste. Pick laundry products with recyclable or refillable packaging, and be careful about what you throw away. Supporting brands that focus on reducing waste can make a big impact in the long run. 

Switch to natural fabrics

Synthetic fabrics, like nylon and polyester, release a lot of microplastics. Choose natural fabrics like linen, cotton or bamboo whenever you can. They break down better and release fewer harmful particles when washed. 

Upgrade your additives

Fragrance is a key part of laundry, but it does not need to harm the planet. Choose laundry boosters that do not contain synthetic plastics. Elix’s microplastic-free scent boosters show that you can have both freshness and sustainability.

Wash smarter, not harder

Washing full loads instead of smaller ones saves water and energy, and helps reduce microplastics from your clothes. Choose shorter wash cycles and cold water to protect your fabrics. 

Sustainable laundry starts with Elix

At ELiX, we are not here to jump on trends. We are here to lead with purpose. We believe that fresh-smelling clothes should not harm the planet. That is why our laundry scent boosters are 100% microplastic-free and give you a long-lasting fragrance you can feel good about.

How Retailers Can Prepare for the 2029 Microplastics Ban in Home Fragrance Products

As we approach 2029, retailers must prepare for a significant change: microplastics will no longer be permitted in home-care and fragrance products. This new rule is a big step toward safer, more eco-friendly items, and now is the right time to start making changes. This is not just a trend. It’s the result of Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/2055, adopted under REACH to reduce synthetic polymer microparticles in everyday products. 

In this blog, we will share simple and practical ways to help retailers update their shelves, support their customers and make the most of this shift. We will also show how partnering up with Elix, a trusted air freshener and fragrance manufacturer that already manufactures microplastic-free fragrances, is a smart and eco-conscious choice.

Understand the new microplastics ban and what it covers

First things first, know the rules. Microplastics are small plastic particles used in fragrances, pearls, gels and liquid boosters to enhance appearance, longevity and texture. Under the new regulation, all such intentionally added microplastics will be prohibited in consumer products. This affects:

What you can do: Review every SKU in your home-case aisle for microplastic components- whether in fragrance beads, polymer gels, capsules or the fragrance formula itself.

Audit your suppliers to assess risk

Having the inventory in your system is only half the battle. You will need clarity from your suppliers. It is vital to gather documentation for:

What you can do: Talk to your suppliers and ask them directly if their products contain any added microplastics. Make a simple checklist to track which products are confirmed safe, which ones still need checking and which ones need to be replaced. For anything unclear, ask for documents or proof that shows the product is compliant or find out if they plan to update the formula soon.

Start replacing products that might be banned

Some home fragrance products, like scented beads, decorative pearls or gel-based fresheners, may not meet the new rules because they contain microplastics. So, instead of waiting, it is better to start switching them out now for safer, eco-friendly options. Here are some simple swaps you can make:

What you can do: Work with manufacturers who already offer microplastic-free products. For example, Elix has a full range of air fresheners, from sprays to gels, that are ready to use and fully compliant. We can help you stay ahead without losing product variety or quality.

Lean on certified & transparent brands

Today’s conscious consumers check labels. Highlighting certifications not only demonstrates legal compliance but also builds consumer trust. Here are some key certifications to look for:

If you sell products that are microplastic-free and eco-friendly, make sure your customers know it. Use signs or shelf labels, like “no microplastics” or “eco-certified” to highlight these items. 

What you can do: Ask your suppliers for proof of certifications and any marketing materials you can use in your store.

Update signs and in-store displays to educate customers

This change is not just about following rules; it is also a great chance to connect with your customers. That is why you must use clear and eye-catching signs to explain what is changing and why it matters. Here are a few easy ideas:

These small touches can help consumers feel informed and show that your store cares about the planet. 

What you can do: Work with your store’s marketing team and private label team to create easy-to-read, attractive signs that help customers make better choices.

Let customers try fragrances made without microplastics

People often decide what to buy based on how something smells or feels. Letting them try out diffusers, sprays or scented sachets is a great way to show off the quality of your microplastic-free products. Here are a few simple ideas:

What you can do: Talk to suppliers like Elix about providing tester kits or display samples. It helps consumers feel confident about what they are buying and shows your store supports clean and safe products.

Use simple messages that focus on what consumers care about

Legal terms can be confusing, but your customers want to know how products help them. Use easy-to-understand messages that highlight real benefits, like:

Do not make the language too technical, and keep it clear and friendly so that it connects with everyday concerns. 

What you can do: Update your store signs, product labels and website descriptions with these kinds of messages.

Help your staff understand and share the message

Your store team plays a big role in helping customers. Make sure they know what the microplastic ban is about and how to talk about it clearly. Here is how to support them:

When your team understands the reason behind the changes, they will feel more confident and genuine when talking to customers. 

What you can do: Create an easy one-page guide about the changes and what to look for.

ELiX is now plastic neutral certification! A new milestone in our eco journey

At ELiX, we’re not just about intention, we’re about action. That’s why we’re proud to announce that we have joined Plastic Bank, a global movement that empowers communities to stop ocean plastic while improving lives.

This certification is a new milestone in our eco journey. We have always been committed to reducing our plastic consumption and using eco-friendly packaging for our products. But we know that this is not enough. There is still a lot of plastic waste out there that needs to be dealt with before it reaches the ocean. But let’s start from the beginning…

The future of our planet – what does it really look like?

Every year, around 11 million metric tons of plastic waste end up in the ocean, threatening marine life, pristine beaches, and even our own health (UNEP, 2023).

By 2050, there could be more plastic than fish in the sea by weight (Ellen MacArthur Foundation).

It’s easy to think that the actions of a single person or company won’t make a difference in the face of such a massive problem. But nothing could be further from the truth!

Every piece of plastic we recover, every product we package responsibly, and every conscious consumer choice helps reduce the global plastic footprint. When you choose products with plastic neutral certification, you’re helping to remove plastic from the environment you’re supporting proper waste collection, verified plastic recovery, and a circular economy that benefits both people and planet.

By using and selling certified products, we spread awareness and drive change across our customer base. We see this as an investment in Mother Earth.

Plastic waste

Plastic problem

Plastic waste is one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. The accumulation of plastic packaging, single-use plastics, and low value plastic waste in landfills and oceans continues to rise.

As companies and conscious consumers, we must take responsibility for our plastic use and work together to remove plastic from the environment before it becomes ocean bound plastic. The global plastic problem requires global solutions, and every action towards reducing plastic waste counts.

Plastic Neutral Certification – what does it mean?

elix is plastic neutral

Plastic Neutral Certification is a commitment to balance the amount of plastic we put into the world with the equivalent amount of plastic waste we help remove and recycle. But how does it work in practice, and who makes it possible?

Plastic Bank is a social enterprise that builds ethical recycling ecosystems in coastal areas around the world.

Plastic Bank reveals the value in plastic and creates a circular economy for recycled plastic. By partnering with local communities, they collect ocean bound plastic waste before it reaches the sea, turning low value plastic waste into valuable resources.

Plastic Neutral Certification means that for every kilogram of plastic we use in our product packaging and shipping materials, we ensure that the same amount of nature bound plastic is collected and recycled elsewhere.

How to verify this?

This is verified through plastic credits and verified plastic removal credits. Companies that become plastic neutral certified brands are part of a global network of businesses taking real plastic action to address plastic pollution and achieve net zero plastic footprint.

If you get to know us better, you'll quickly realize that for companies like ours, this is more than just a label. It’s a measurable step towards sustainability goals and a cleaner planet for future generations.

Support not only for the environment

Did you know that this approach not only helps the environment but also supports vulnerable families by providing a dignified income through verified plastic recovery and proper waste collection?

At ELiX, we have this certification! How did we achieve it?

At ELiX, we have this certification!

At ELiX, our mission has always been to create products that delight our customers while respecting the environment. We believe that every company has a responsibility to reduce its plastic footprint and lead by example in the fight against plastic pollution. That’s why we set ambitious sustainability goals, from using recycled materials in our packaging to supporting projects that recover plastic from coastal cities and formerly pristine beaches.

By partnering with Plastic Bank, we have taken our commitment to the next level. We carefully measure the plastic used in our packaging products and shipping materials, and for every gram, we fund the collection and recycling of an equivalent amount of ocean bound plastic waste. This not only helps remove plastic from the environment but also empowers communities in mountainous regions, spice plantations, and coastal areas, providing verified data on plastic recovery (data related) and ensuring that our actions have a real, positive environmental impact.

Plastic neutrality and plastic packaging - how to reconcile them?

Plastic packaging is an integral part of many products, but at ELiX, we are committed to minimizing its environmental impact. Through our partnership with Plastic Bank, we ensure that all our plastic packaging is accounted for, and its footprint is offset by recovering the equivalent amount of verified plastic waste from the environment.

How does it work in practice?

By partnering with Plastic Bank, we have achieved Plastic Neutral certification, which means that for every ELiX product you buy, we pay for the equivalent of 3 plastic bottles to be collected and recycled. This way, we are preventing plastic from entering the ocean and supporting vulnerable communities with a dignified income.

Our plastic neutral certification is more than just a badge it’s a promise. Every time you add an ELiX product to your cart, you’re supporting verified plastic recovery and helping to remove plastic waste from landfills and nature. Our partnership ensures that low value plastic waste, often ignored by traditional recycling facilities, is collected, sorted, and repurposed into new materials. This process creates plastic recovery credits, which are tracked and verified, so you can trust that your purchase is making a measurable difference.

We don’t just believe, we are fully convinced that becoming a plastic neutral certified retailer is a crucial step for all brands that want to lead the way in sustainability and inspire conscious consumers to take action.

See our certified products on the label

Look for the plastic neutral certified label on our range of products, including air fresheners, odor neutralizers, and our innovative wash scent booster. Each of these products is packaged with care, using materials that are either recycled or offset through our partnership with Plastic Bank.

You can explore our full selection of plastic neutral certified products on our website, from everyday essentials to specialty items designed for conscious consumers who want to make a positive impact.

Plastic neutral brands

In our collections, you'll also find products created following the plastic-free principle (e.g., Wooden Car Air Fresheners).

Repurpose global

By joining the repurpose global movement and working with organizations like Plastic Bank, ELiX is part of a worldwide effort to recover plastic, support circular economies, and inspire other companies to take meaningful plastic action.

Together, we can repurpose plastic waste into valuable resources and create a net zero plastic footprint for future generations.

Every time you choose ELiX, you are choosing to make a positive impact on the planet and its people. You are choosing to be part of the solution.

Thank you for joining us on this journey. Together, we can make a difference and save the Planet.

Laundry Perfumes vs. Fabric Softeners: Understanding the Difference

Would you like to make a retail purchase?

The beauty of laundry perfumes is that they can be used in conjunction with fabric softeners. Using both in the same laundry cycle allows you to enjoy the softness provided by the softener while experiencing the enhanced, lasting fragrance from the perfume. This combination can turn your laundry routine into a sensory delight, where your clothes not only feel soft but also smell amazing for extended periods.

The Long-Lasting Scent of Laundry Perfumes

One of the standout benefits of laundry perfumes is how long the scent lasts after washing. Unlike fabric softeners, which may lose their fragrance after a few days, laundry perfumes are formulated to ensure that the scent remains on clothes through multiple wears or while stored in your wardrobe. This means that even items that aren’t worn immediately after washing still maintain that freshly-laundered scent when you're ready to use them.

The Small Investment with Big Benefits

One of the best things about laundry perfumes is the cost-to-benefit ratio. The price of adding laundry perfume to your wash is typically low, especially when compared to the benefits you receive. The long-lasting scent, enhanced personal confidence, and the ability to pair them with fabric softeners make them a valuable addition to any laundry routine. Given how little is needed per wash, one bottle can last a long time, making it a small investment with big returns in terms of how your clothes look, feel, and smell.

Laundry Perfumes – A Way to Keep Clothes Fresh and Fragrant

Laundry perfumes are gaining popularity, and for a good reason. These fragrant elixirs elevate your laundry experience, leaving your clothes not only clean but also smelling fresh and inviting. Whether it's the scent of delicate florals, fresh linen, or warm vanilla, laundry perfumes bring an extra touch of luxury to your wardrobe. But why exactly are they worth using? Let’s delve into the benefits and importance of making laundry perfumes a staple in your home.

Why Use Laundry Perfumes?

  1. Enhancing Your Wardrobe’s Fragrance
    We all love to feel fresh and clean, and that includes how we want our clothes to smell. Laundry perfumes offer long-lasting scents that make your clothing smell incredible for days, even weeks. The appealing aroma can boost your confidence, enhance your personal style, and even make daily tasks feel a little more luxurious. When your clothes smell good, you feel good.

Their lasting scents, ability to be used alongside fabric softeners, and the confidence boost they provide make them a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to feel and smell their best. For such a small cost, laundry perfumes offer undeniable benefits that will leave you and your clothes feeling fresh, fragrant and fabulous.

How to identify the manufacturer from the middleman in the air freshener market?

When sourcing air fresheners or any fragrance-related products, it’s essential to ensure you’re working directly with the manufacturer. Manufacturers not only provide better pricing but also guarantee compliance and technical support that middleman simply cannot offer.

Here’s how you can identify a genuine manufacturer:

  1. Check for International Certifications: Reputable manufacturers have certifications like BRC Global Standards (BRC GS), ISO, or other industry-specific credentials. These certifications demonstrate that they follow stringent quality and safety standards.
  2. Evaluate Their Expertise: A manufacturer can answer specific technical questions within 48 hours. If you receive vague or delayed responses, you may be dealing with a middleman who has to relay your queries to the actual producer.
  3. Ask for the EUR.1 Certificate: This certificate confirms that the products were made in Europe, ensuring high-quality standards. Even if you don’t need it as a customer, a genuine manufacturer can provide this document, which is proof of their production capabilities and location.

By asking these questions and looking for certifications, you can confidently select a manufacturer who meets your needs. Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions—we’re here to help!

Clearing the Air of Cigarette Smoke Odor

  1. Ventilation: Start by opening windows and doors to allow fresh air to circulate throughout your home. Proper ventilation is key to reducing the concentration of smoke particles in the air and helping to dissipate lingering odors.
  2. Deep Clean: Give your home a thorough cleaning to remove built-up smoke residue from surfaces, walls, and fabrics. Wash curtains, upholstery, and bedding using a combination of detergent and vinegar to help neutralize odors.
  3. Air Purifiers: Invest in high-quality air purifiers equipped with HEPA filters to capture smoke particles and other airborne contaminants. Place them strategically throughout your home, especially in areas where smoking occurs most frequently.
  4. Odor Absorbers: Use natural odor absorbers like baking soda, activated charcoal, or coffee grounds to help neutralize smoke odors. Place bowls of these substances in rooms affected by cigarette smoke and leave them overnight to absorb odors.

But no more worrying, ELiX is here to save the day and help you with a fresh smelling home with dogs! 

There are a number of reasons why your house might smell unpleasant due to your pet. But all these reasons have solutions that work wonders to keep your house free from any unpleasant odors and smelling fresh. 

With ELiX air fresheners and a few easy and quick tips, you can say goodbye to the off smelling odors your pets leave behind and say Hello to a fresh smelling home!

In this blog we will offer some easy and quick tips so that you can remove all the bad smells in your home and keep your house smelling pleasant even with pets around.

So let's take a detailed look at the do's and don'ts for an aromatic home!

Maintain a Regular Routine For Keeping Your Home Clean

I know it seems pretty obvious when you hear someone say "Keep your home clean." but it is one of the best, cheapest and simplest ways to prevent pet odor from settling in the furniture and every nook and cranny of your home. 

It is as simple as setting a routine to clean your home and sticking to it. This includes mopping, laundry, vacuuming as well as dusting. You need to vacuum all your curtains, mats, rugs, carpets, etc at least thrice each week in order to remove all the pet hair from the fabric. 

Sweep and mop hardwood floors at least once each day. You can also hire or rent a professional cleaner every couple of months for proper in depth cleaning of the carpets.

Nothing holds odors longer than fabric. The best way to clean fabric is to keep it clean in the first place. 

Here are a few tips to keep the fabric from smelling bad:

Here are some fresh smelling house hacks:

Cleaning in Case an Accident Occurs

If your puppy or senior pup has had an accident, use newspapers or a paper towel to soak up the urine. If possible you can use an old rug or piece of cloth under the rug to soak up better. Odors tend to linger for longer periods of time in rugs and carpets if left as it is. Here are a few tips to remove odors from accidents:

If you have just bought a new carpet, it may not be a good idea to spray vinegar or baking soda on it. In such cases it is a smart option to go for a dry carpet cleaner. 

It is available in the market and has a texture like saw-dust and has a granular consistency that works wonders to help absorb liquid spills, stains and odors from your carpet fibers. 

Since it has a dry texture instead of a wet one, you don't have to worry about mopping it up from the floor and once it has done its work, all you have to do is vacuum the area once. 

Try to go for a carpet cleaner that is safe for multiple kinds of fiber such as sisal, wool, etc.

Once the urine has been soaked up as much as possible, use a high quality odor neutralizer like ELiX's PET NEUTRALIZER IN SPRAY.

Keeping the Windows Open for Proper Ventilation:

Keeping the windows open to facilitate ventilation is literally one of the simplest and cheapest ways to keep your house free from any unpleasant odors. 

You can also turn on your ceiling fan to circulate air better throughout the house.

Using an Air Purifier:

Keeping the windows open is not always a good idea, and it can turn out to be problematic as it allows for insects to come into the house and it is even worse if you have some outdoor allergies. 

If you cannot keep your windows open for some reason, it can be difficult for odors and unpleasant smells to leave your home. 

To solve this issue, it is a better and healthier option to invest in a good quality air purifier. This air purifier will mitigate the allergens and dust entering your home making it a more enjoyable living situation.

Keep in mind that you will be required to change the filter of the air purifier every couple of months for optimal performance. 

Having a Regular Routine For Keeping Your Pet Clean

It sounds obvious, but how often do you clean the paws of your pet each time they come back from an outside stroll? 

Probably not very often. 

It is time to get into the habit of cleaning the paws of your pet each time they come back inside from an outdoor setting. Once you start doing this, you will surely notice a huge difference in the look and smell of your furniture and floor. It affects the overall odor of your home as well. 

You need to groom your pets regularly. Brushing the coat of your pet at least once every couple of days is a must. It helps remove any dust and loose hair from the coat. 

When it comes to bathing your pet, you must consult with your veterinarian as to how often you should bathe and brush your pet's teeth. 

You can also use grooming wipes that help elevate any unpleasant odor from your pet. 

Teeth cleaning treats are also a good option instead of manually brushing your pets' teeth if they are fussy.

Use Air Fresheners or Pet Deodorizers 

With ELiX's range of deodorizers and air fresheners you can be free from any stress as to how to make your home smell good. Our air fresheners are made from natural materials that do not irritate or harm your furry friends and work wonders to eliminate any unpleasant smells from your home.

If somehow, despite taking all possible preventive measures, you can still smell your pets on your furniture, follow the following steps:

Why Choose ELiX for Your Pet Odour Elimination Needs?

Remember prevention is the major ingredient to keep your home smelling fresh and pleasant. But in case accidents occur, we at ELiX as your air fragrance suppliers, provide you with the right tools needed to eliminate the bad smell right away.

🌿🔬 Natural vs. Synthetic: The Truth About Essential Oils and Pictograms 🔬🌿

The classification of these products is based on the raw materials used, whether they are natural or synthetic. Both types of raw materials undergo rigorous testing to ensure their impact on human health, life, and the environment. Each raw material is then classified accordingly.

You might be surprised to learn that even natural raw materials, like essential oils, are highly concentrated natural extracts. The concentrations of raw materials listed in the law are incredibly high. This means that, in general, there is no true natural fragrance oil that doesn't have any pictogram.

However, here's where things get interesting. Many customers actively seek out products without pictograms because they believe that these products are "natural". And this is where some companies try to hide the true characteristics of their products from the consumer.

I believe in transparency and providing accurate information about our products. We want our customers to make informed choices and understand the true nature of what they're purchasing. That's why we label our products according to regulations and provide clear and concise information about the ingredients used.

So the next time you come across a product claiming to be "natural" without any pictograms, remember that true transparency lies in understanding the regulations and ensuring that all products are labeled accordingly. Let's empower consumers with knowledge and make informed decisions together!

The scent of a new car

The smell of a car interior is a very complex subject. It is largely made up of the individual smells of the components used in the manufacturing process and the smell of car interior care products. Already at this stage, some manufacturers select suppliers and materials by choosing those that are aromatically compatible with strict guidelines.

Quality is also about the right smell

In the case of premium brands, the quality of the materials used to finish the interior is assessed comprehensively. It's a full spectrum of experiences to meet the client's expectations. It is not only a question of the technological usability of a given part, but also of aesthetics (visual, tactile) and also precisely the smell. This means that manufacturers of premium brands do not leave fragrance to chance. It can be said that they manage it extremely effectively.

It is important to remember that in a certain class of car, the interior scent of the vehicle must be consistent with the brand image and the quality of the finish. This is the most important element of fragrance management - the coherence of the fragrance with the interior design. Even if organic leathers are used, they can also have a refined fragrance that creates a unique atmosphere and gives pleasure to the brand or model.

Classy means discreet

It is extremely important, as manufacturers have already learned, to manage the intensity of the fragrance. The fragrance of the interior elements should be extremely delicate and long-lasting. So that the user recognises it when entering the vehicle and then, thanks to adaptive mechanisms, stops recognising it in a few minutes. Nowadays, good-quality components can smell for up to more than a year, all thanks to the use of special odour carriers that are resistant to high temperatures. This refers to the production stage - for example, the plastic injection stage.

A very interesting technology is the scents released only when the item is touched. They are most commonly used for any textile or leather items

Fragrance helps to sell

The right vehicle interior scent creates a pleasant atmosphere that remains in the emotional memory much longer than technical descriptions and often helps to sell cars.

According to research, fragrance fulfils its 'marketing' role in two cases. Firstly, when it 'fits the brand' and is compatible with the interior furnishings, and secondly, when its intensity is well chosen. This is illustrated by the accompanying graph of perceived odour intensity - we are interested in level 3, that is, when the perceiver is on the verge of identifying what and how they smell.


Range 0-1

An area where the intensity of the odour is so low that we feel nothing (but animals can already identify such low concentrations of odour).

Range 1-2

The most interesting range of odour concentration, where we are unable to identify the source of the odour. While we cannot define it, we already perceive it emotionally as something positive (it's pleasant) or negative (be careful, or don't eat); this level triggers a kind of premonition, which some call a sixth sense.

Range 2-3

The range within which we can identify a smell and describe it, and clearly know what emotions and memories it is associated with. This is the extent of the effect of well-chosen perfumes or properly applied air fresheners.

Range 3-4

The level that starts to become a nuisance; we have too much fragrance intensity and, regardless of the type of fragrance, we are not comfortable with it. It's a case of taking a lift with someone who has spilled a whole bottle of perfume on themselves - "it supposedly smells good but gives you a headache".

Range 4 and more

Determines the odour concentration at which the pain threshold is exceeded. Regardless of the type of fragrance, the reflex reaction is to want to leave the place with that concentration of smell.


Exaggerated intensity is perceived as bad or even worse than a bad smell. In general, the most important thing for car manufacturers is to create a friendly, good-quality place where we feel comfortable. The same principle should be followed when individually selecting fragrances for cars, rooms or our personal perfumes - Waldemar Stasiak - ELiX

Which scent do you like best?

A very good example is the so-called New Car fragrance, which has evolved from a heavy leather scent into a lighter men's perfume. And there is a justification for this, as there are no leather elements in popular cars and the smell seemed artificial. On the other hand, the scent of men's perfume with a hint of luxurious leather gives the interior a pleasantly calm atmosphere and is universally accepted by men and women alike.
