Celebrating 20 Years of Scented Innovation: The Story of Air Esscentials

This September, Air Esscentials proudly celebrates 20 years of bringing unforgettable fragrance experiences into homes and businesses around the world. What started as a small passion project in a garage has blossomed into a global leader in scent branding and diffusion technology.

Like many family businesses, Air Esscentials began with a dream and determination. Founders Spence Levy, Marc Levy and Citron Arbel started walking the streets of Miami Beach, offering to scent hotels for free for one week. The idea was simple: let people experience the power of scent. The results spoke for themselves…those hotels never wanted the machines taken out.

Driven by a vision for better, more sustainable solutions, Air Esscentials went on to design and patent its own line of scent diffusers. These innovations weren’t just about delivering fragrance, they were about doing it smarter, cleaner, and more efficiently. From there, the company expanded into a full line of scent marketing products: private-label candles, room sprays, reed diffusers, sachets, and more.

Over the past two decades, Air Esscentials has teamed up with some of the world’s top perfumers to create custom fragrances that tell a story. Iconic brands like Brightline Rail, Sandals Resorts, Nobu, NBC Universal, Rockefeller Center, and Baha Mar have trusted Air Esscentials to design scents that elevate their environments and create memorable guest experiences.

What began with three founders now includes a team of 50 passionate employees working from our headquarters in Doral, Florida. With an international distribution network, Air Esscentials is proud to serve clients across the globe while staying rooted in the local community.

As we celebrate this 20-year milestone, we reflect on our journey with gratitude for our team, our partners, and especially our customers who have made this possible. The future of scent branding is full of exciting possibilities, and Air Esscentials is committed to leading the way with innovation, sustainability, and a continued dedication to making life smell better.

Here’s to the next 20 years of creating unforgettable fragrance experiences.
