ABSTRACT:
A scent sampler construction comprising a panel having two oppositely facing folds that divide the panel into first, second, and third segments arranged in a generally z-shaped configuration with one side of the second segment overlapping a portion of one side of the first segment in face to face relation, and the other side of the second segment overlapping a portion of one side of the third segment in face to face relation. There is releasable adhesive between the facing sides of the second and the third segments, to releasably secure the outer and intermediate segments together in face-to-face relation. There is a burstable encapsulated scent sample between the facing portions of the second and the third segments so that the separation of the facing portions of the second and third segments releases the sample scent. A method of making a scent sampler comprising the steps of applying a burstable scent sample to a continuous web, folding the web over itself along a first longitudinally extending fold line to form an integral flap that overlies the web and to sandwich the burstable scent sample between the flap and the web; folding the first fold line underneath the web along a second longitudinally extending fold line so that the burstable scent sample is below the web, and a portion of the flap remains above the web; and unfolding the portion of the flap above the web to form a z-fold in the web.
