Non-pressurized pump dispensable concentrated air freshener compositions, and a method of freshening air using a pump article containing a concentrated air freshener composition, are described. The air freshener compositions have a reduced VOC content and provide a fragrance intensity and longevity having at least parity with conventional pressurized air freshening aerosols.

Pump concentrated air freshener

A pressurized dispensing system includes a plastic bottle. The plastic bottle includes a crimp ring extending outwardly from a finish of the bottle, with first and second sealing projections extending from an upper surface of the crimp ring. A slot extends inwardly from an outer surface of the crimp ring, with the slot including a first section adjacent to the upper surface that is a further distance from an axis of the bottle than the second sealing projection is positioned from the axis of the bottle. The slot forms a passageway for gas to be released from the bottle when the system is heated. A valve is crimped to the crimp ring and a gasket is positioned between the upper surface and the valve such that a seal is formed between the bottle and valve.

Container with cap and base

A plastic bottle for containing a product under pressure, such as a product to be dispensed as an aerosol. The plastic bottle includes a rounded base, a body extending about an axis of the bottle from the base towards a top end of the bottle, and a finish at the top end of the bottle. The base and the finish are configured to eliminate or to reduce undesirable properties such as bursting, splintering when dropped, and stress cracking.
