Trying to steer clear of chemically-laden air fresheners? Try this simple DIY air freshener spray! You’ll need three simple ingredients:
- Filtered water
- Vodka
- Essential oil(s)
You need only a tiny bit of vodka, so if keeping alcohol in the home is a problem, be sure to buy the smallest bottle. The vodka works as a great preservative and allows the aroma of the oils to permeate the room.
DIY Air Freshener Spray
Ingredients
- 8 ounces filtered water
- 2 ounces vodka
- 5-10 drops essential oil(s) of choice
Instructions
- Combine vodka and water in mason jar or glass measuring cup.
- Add essential oil(s).
- Stir gently.
- Pour into glass spray bottles. I like 4-ounce bottles for room sprays.
Add a special purifying boost by including 1 teaspoon of colloidal silver and/or tea tree oil!

Hi Andrea,
Thank you for sharing your recipe. I can’t wait to try it! Anytime I spray a store-bought air freshener I can practically taste the chemicals. This sounds like a much healthier alternative!
Andrea Fabry says
Thanks Lori. Yes, those chemicals are strong.

Would rubbing alchol work instead of vodka?
Thank you for all you do!
Andrea Fabry says
Hi Natasha, Rubbing alcohol is not the same as vodka. Rubbing alcohol is isopropyl alcohol, while vodka is ethyl alcohol, which is a bit safer as I understand.
