The present invention relates to the field of perfumery and more precisely
it concerns a device, and the consumer articles associated therewith, for
dispensing an active composition into the surrounding space. The device
includes an active liquid, a reservoir holding the active liquid, a
wick-/emanator structure composed of a wicking part and an emitting part,
the latter having an evaporative surface to be directly exposed to the
surrounding space when the device is activated and being housed in a
moveable housing assembly, activation of the device occurring without
need to removing the housing assembly and or the wick-/emanator
structure, the device further comprising a rotor arranged in a manner
providing for rotation of wicking or emitting parts to allow forced
