There is an air freshener unit and a combined container and air freshener unit. The air freshener unit is mounted onto the upper portion of the container and is comprised of a first section and a second section. In one embodiment the first section is a holder for a fragrance material and the second section is a cover for the first section. The second section in a first position covers and substantially seals the first section and in a second position allows air to pass through a space between the first section and the second section and deliver the fragrance material to the atmosphere exterior to the air freshener unit. In a second embodiment both the first section and the second section contain fragrance material. In the first embodiment structure the first section is comprised of a plurality of recesses which hold the fragrance material and the second section is of a conforming shape to cover and substantially seal the plurality of recesses in a first position and in a second position allows air to pass between the first section and the second section to deliver the fragrance to the exterior of the air freshener unit. In a second embodiment structure both the first section and the second section are comprised of a plurality of recesses and deliver the fragrance material in the same manner. The fragrance material is held in the recesses and is in a solid or gel form.
