Are there long term health risks to using air fresheners and other scented products?
The ingredients in air fresheners are routinely evaluated to ensure that the levels of exposure from product use or foreseeable misuses are far below the level that would pose significant risks. This includes assuring that fragrance materials do not present risks of adverse health effects. Information on the testing of fragrance materials by independent scientists can be found at the web site of the Research Institute for Fragrance Materials – www.rifm.org.
