My favorite source of home fragrance for more than 15 years, Yankee Candle, is now offering fragrances for metered air fresheners. For all who are unfamiliar with the concept, metered air fresheners are those curious plastic housings hanging high on many commercial restroom walls. Battery operated and loaded with a container of fragrance, some emit scent continuously and others can be set to burst at various intervals.

The fact that Yankee Candle has entered this arena is great news for restrooms away-from-home. Choosing a fragrance for restroom air freshener dispensers can be challenging. (An overpowering or downright repulsive scent is worse than none at all.) Yankee Candle Commercial Air Freshener is currently offered in six fragrances including Home Sweet Home ( a terrific spicy scent), Clean Cotton, Macintosh, Buttercream, Sage & Citrus, or Lilac Blossoms.
