Hi,

Check out medical supply for room deodorizers.  (And let us know what
you find out ... *g*)

I have a friend who's quadriplegic.  When I was younger and stronger,
I would on occasion do her "care".  I react badly to cheap scents in
the air, and so she gave me the rest of a bottle of her medical-grade
room deodorizer (maybe called "air freshener").  It worked
brilliantly!  Really took care of room odor without putting awful junk
into the air.

Sadly, I've lost contact with her.  And I didn't pay attention to
where or how she got this stuff.  But if one investigates
medical-grade room deodorizers (or air fresheners) there might be
something useful ...
