An apparatus for applying scent to clothing has an enclosed compartment having a top, bottom and side walls. A horizontal perforated shelf extends across the compartment and divides the compartment into upper and lower portions. A closeable access opening is located in the side walls of the compartment for placing articles of clothing on top of the shelf. An air circulation conduit connects the upper and lower portions of the compartment. A fan is connected to the conduit for moving air therethrough from the upper portion to the lower portion of the compartment. A scent cartridge is in communication with the compartment in the path of air passing therethrough so the passing air will pick up the scent of the scent cartridge whereupon the scented air will move into the lower portion of the compartment, thence through the shelf and articles of clothing, and thence into the upper portion of the compartment and back into the conduit. The method of applying a scent to articles of clothing comprises placing a garment to be scented on a perforated shelf within a closed compartment, dividing the compartment into upper and lower portions, and then circulating scented air upwardly through the shelf and the garment. The scented air is then recirculated and exposed to a scented material, and the recirculation continues for a sufficient period of time that the appropriate level of scent has been imparted to the articles of clothing.
