Overview
- Argentine outlets describe a repeatable recipe using peels from two to three oranges, two cinnamon sticks and about half a liter of water brought to a boil, then simmered 10–15 minutes.
- The mixture’s vapor is used to freshen rooms, and the cooled liquid can be bottled as a spray, added to mop water or applied to counters and tiles.
- Coverage frames the approach as economical and free of synthetic fragrances, with reported purifying and antibacterial qualities attributed to orange oils and cinnamon.
- New pieces expand options by suggesting apple peels with cinnamon or clove, plus alternatives such as dried potpourri, oven toasting and a strained diffuser spray.
- Practical cautions include never leaving the pot unattended, patch-testing on sensitive surfaces, storing spray away from sunlight and using it within about five days.
