Freshen up drawers, closets, and even cars

This is one of those moments when you can get double use out of your bar of soap without having to do much labor yourself.

All you have to do is make sure you place your scented soap bars in places where you would like to have natural freshness and a better scent.

The easiest way to make use of this bar of soap trick is in the dresser, where you can just place your soap inside a drawer or even on one of the shelves and let it scent your dresser in peace.

You can place them with their packaging on, or if you want the scent to be more present, you can easily just take the bar from its packaging and wrap it in some fabric before placing it between your clothes.

This method also works with placing them in closets, car interiors, suitcases, and even in boots or shoes that have started to smell too much from use, and you cannot wash them anytime soon or at all.
