Abstract
A dryer appliance and a method of operating the same to introduce a fragrance into the drying chamber include positioning a reservoir within the cabinet of the dryer appliance. The reservoir contains a fragrant additive and is positioned such that a flow of air may pass through the fragrant additive and into the drying chamber to improve the smell of the drying chamber and articles placed therein. The reservoir may be positioned within the cabinet and covered with a selectively positioned lid or may be placed in fluid communication with an air handler of the dryer appliance to permit the intermingling of the flow of air and the fragrant additive.
