Febreze and other commercial air fresheners contain hidden toxic chemicals that are not listed on the label and may cause lung damage, hormone disruption, and long-term health risks

Original review summary

The review says Febreze lists ingredients such as solvents and a preservative, while “fragrance” can legally include undisclosed compounds. It notes that scented products can irritate airways or worsen symptoms for some people, but says there is no evidence that normal household use of Febreze causes widespread long-term harm or cigarette-smoke-level exposure.[S1]
