A dispenser for volatilizable materials, such as those used to freshen or deodorize air, comprising a hollow body, rotatably attached to a closure member, and having a support for the volatilizable material contained within the hollow body; said hollow body including a resiliently compressible portion, and a substantially vertical sidewall portion extending from the compressible portion, and an aperture formed in the sidewall portion; and said closure member including an interior portion and a substantially vertical sidewall having an aperture formed therein. When the closure member and the hollow body are attached to each other the sidewall of the closure member overlaps the sidewall portion of the hollow body thereby allowing their respective apertures to be brought in and out of registry to permit air to enter the dispenser and evaporate a portion of the volatilizable material.

A dispenser comprising: (a) a hollow body having: A circular cross section; a resiliently compressible portion; and a substantially vertical sidewall portion extending from said resiliently compressible portion; wherein said vertical sidewall portion has at least one aperture formed therein; (b) a closure member having: A circular cross section; an interior surface; and a substantially vertical sidewall adapted to overlap the substantially vertical sidewall portion of said hollow body; wherein the substantially vertical sidewall of said closure member has at least one aperture formed therein at a point which corresponds to the aperture in the substantially vertical sidewall portion of said hollow body; (c) means for rotatably retaining said closure member on said hollow body; and (d) a support for containing a substantially volatilizable substance within said hollow body; whereby when the closure member is attached to the hollow body the closure member can be rotated so that the apertures on the sidewall of closure member can be brought in and out of registry with the aperture on the substantially vertical sidewall portion of the hollow body, when the respective apertures are in registry with each other the ambient air can contact the volatilizable substance and upon the compression and release of said resiliently compressible portion air can be expelled from the interior of said hollow body and drawn into said hollow body, said air being charged with and carrying to the ambient atmosphere a portion of said volatilizable substance.
