<p>A horseshoe-shaped clip formed of a non-volatile elastomeric resin combined with one or more volatile aromatic materials, the clip being comfortably, easily, and releasably applied to the cartilaginous septum of a wearer's nose, whereby aromatic material continuously given off by the clip is entrained in the nasal inhalations of a wearer and conveyed thereby to the wearer's olfactory sensors to create a desired aromatic sensation. The device is useful in administering aromatherapy. Preferably, the aromatic material is applied to the surface of resin beads prior to injection molding of the clip. The clip is thereby permeated throughout by the aromatic material such that emission of the material is virtually undiminished over long periods of use, and the clip may be cleaned, washed, reshaped, or resurfaced. An attachable clip supplement including a second aromatic material may be provided to afford a user a choice of combinations of secondary aromas with the primary clip aroma.</p> |
