Natural Air Freshners on our Wood Stove

Our wood stove has been running all day long with temps outside hanging around 40 degrees. With that said, I decided to try a natural air freshner. I've read some online about different herbs being placed in water and slowly heated to release their aromatic properties.

I tried cinnamon and cloves, this lasted a couple days on top of the stove. It smelled nice.

I tried the lavender I picked this summer. It lasted a day. At first it was very aromatic, then it just stopped.

I plan to try out the rosemary from our plant growing in our cockpit, and in time I'll have all sorts of herbs to freshen the air in our musty old boat!
