A rechargeable air freshener in a figurative form that includes a body and a head section, and an outer casing of permeable fabric material whose contours define all sections of the figure. The interior of the casing and all sections thereof are stuffed with a compressible core of absorbent material having good wicking properties, the core rendering the figure soft and squeezable. Occupying an internal cavity of the core which extends from the body to the head section thereof is a self-contained fragrance dispenser constituted by a cylindrical can filled with a liquid fragrance, a depressible stem projecting from one end of the can terminating in an actuator head provided with a spray nozzle. The can is so placed in the cavity that the actuator head lies just below the scalp region of the head section of the casing. When, therefore, the user presses the scalp region of the figure, this actuates the dispenser to spray a mist of liquid fragrance onto the core material within the head section, the fragrance being absorbed thereby and being wicked throughout the core. The aromatic vapor volatilized from the outer surface of the core passes through the permeable casing and is discharged into the atmosphere.

A rechargeable air freshener comprising: (a) an outer casing formed of permeable fabric material and contoured to define a figure including a head section and a body section joined thereto; (b) a core of compressible material stuffing all sections of the casing and having an internal cylindrical cavity therein, whereby the resultant figure is soft and squeezable, said material having liquid absorbent and wicking properties; and (c) a self-contained fragrance dispenser constituted by a cylindrical can whose diameter is substantially the same as the diameter of the cavity containing a volatile liquid fragrance, an axially-depressible head at the upper end of the can having a spray nozzle from which the liquid is sprayed when the head is depressed, said dispenser being disposed in said internal cavity which extends from the body section to the head section to place the actuator head at a position in the head section below a scalp region of the casing, whereby when pressing the scalp region to operate the actuator head, fragrance is sprayed into the core material in the head section and wicked thereby throughout the core material within the casing, the liquid fragrance volatilized from the outer surface of the core passing through the permeable casing to be discharged into the atmosphere.
