Abstract

An air freshener replacement bottle having an open ended, externally threaded neck a wick holding sleeve which press fits onto the open end of the bottle. The sleeve has an outwardly directed flange with a lower face that abuts against an upper end of the bottle neck. An internally threaded cap is threaded onto the neck of the bottle compressing the wick holder flange forming a seal. The cap has a cylindrical wall smaller in diameter than the lower portion of the cap, protruding from its top. The cylindrical wall contains at least one annular groove on it outside. A wick extends through the sleeve and the cylindrical wall with one end projecting into the cavity of the bottle and the opposite end exposed to the air. Another cap whose internal diameter is sized slightly larger than the cylindrical wall on the first cap has at least one internal annular rib sized slightly smaller than said at least one groove in said cylindrical wall. The second cap is therefore snapped onto the first cap to seal the wick to prevent evaporation with the ribs and grooves providing a tight seal.
