Plug-in air fresheners are a very convenient way to make a home smell more inviting, but they are often packed full of harsh chemicals that can trigger headaches, allergies, and leave a lingering artificial odor.
That's why these 100% natural Scent Fill Plug-in Air Fresheners, available at Amazon, are a game-changer, relying on essential oils instead of synthetic fillers.
The best part? They last longer, too. This is why hundreds of people bought them last month to create a non-toxic home.
100% natural, non-toxic plug-in air fresheners
The Scent Fill plug-ins are available in over 80 natural fragrances, all made without synthetic and potentially harmful ingredients. They are plant-based and responsibly harvested, made in the USA, and are compatible with many existing plug-in air freshener modules, such as the Air Wick oil warmers.
While there are several non-toxic ways to make your home smell nice, plug-ins are among the most convenient.
You don't need to watch a pot boil, as with simmer pots, they last far longer than the best fragrant flowers, and they mitigate the fire risk of the best non-toxic candles (perfect if you have clumsy children or curious pets).
Better yet, they have thousands of five-star reviews on Amazon alone, with many shoppers mentioning that the plug-ins did away with the chronic headaches synthetic plug-ins, which, if you have them, are one of the toxic items to remove from your bedroom right now, had triggered for them.
Verified Amazon shopper Red Ink, for example, praised the plug-ins for finally defeating year-long odors to make their home smell nice.

They shared, 'I live in a 1400-square-foot home built in 1912, and I have three cats. A previous owner of our house was a cat hoarder, and even though we have taken down walls to the studs and replaced the flooring, the house still smells bad when it warms up in the summer.
'A few times I tried various sprays and plugins, but they typically gave me headaches. Today, we were away all day with the air conditioner barely running, and the house was warm – a usual time when we smell that unpleasant smell upon returning home.
'Instead, we opened the front door, and the whole house smelled amazing! Soft peppermint lingered in the air. My daughter loved it, and I did too. No more funky odors!'
If that wasn't enough, Amazon shopper Bea has had success using the Scent Fill natural peppermint fragrance from Amazon as natural pest control to help get rid of mice in their home.
'We have a garage apartment, and when no one is in there, we’ve had occasional rodent guests. I researched that the peppermint smell could work as a deterrent. I feel that it has. And when I open the apartment for use, it’s easy to freshen up because of the clean scent.'
With scent families ranging from gourmand to spicy to fruits and even ozonic, there is a scent option to suit every taste.
Shopper N Puroff-Main gave their fragrance selection five stars, sharing, 'My house smells like a high-end hotel, without the cost of something like Drift, which you have to subscribe to. Inexpensive and perfect!'

What to shop
With 100% natural scents in Cinnamon Apple, Sycamore Fir, Warm Spice, and Cranberry Plum, this Scent Fill starter kit is perfect for the cozy season, offering the best welcoming fragrances for a guest bedroom that won't set off their sensitivities.
The Scent Fill refills are available in over 80 fragrance options, all made from synthetic-free formulations. This 100% natural vanilla peppermint fragrance is praised by shoppers for its great scent throw and longevity.
The scent refills can be swapped out and changed whenever you need a change of pace, with relaxing scents such as Lilac easily swapping places with more energizing scents, such as peppermint.
Prone to burning the occasional dinner? Or are musty smells bothering you? This deodorizer kit helps to combat strong, stale malodor (including from cigarettes).
These clean-burning candles are made with 100% domestically-grown soy wax, have cotton-core wicks, and fragrance oils free of parabens and phthalates to scent your home. The first time you burn the candle, make sure the wax burns to the edges to reduce the risk of tunelling later.
This has proven to be a 10/10 for the Head of Solved, Punteha. Its long-lasting fragrance is subtle but permeates the whole room consistently, unlike oil reed diffusers that lose strength as the reeds dry out. Zero maintenance or turning is required here, and 3-5 sticks will give up to a month of luxury, hotel-style scenting.
Now that you have swapped your home fragrance, consider switching to the best non-toxic cleaning products to help cut even more harsh chemicals from your home.
