Abstract

A technique for incorporating odor control agent particles into an absorbent article is provided. More specifically, the odor control particles are 'homogenously' distributed (e.g., in a substantially uniform manner) within an airformed fiber matrix of an absorbent core of an absorbent article. An absorbent core containing such a homogeneously distributed odor control particles may possess a greater surface area for contacting malodorous compounds, thereby increasing the likelihood of odor reduction.
