Just FYI, fragrances are VOCs, pretty much by definition. They have to be "volatile" or else you wouldn't smell them, and every chemical except noble gases is a "compound." I suppose some plug-in air freshener fragrances could be inorganic, but I think the majority of inorganic volatile compounds probably smell bad (think ammonia or sulfur compounds).
A "VOC free" air freshener would either be pointless or BSing you.
Most of the food you smell also has VOC
Same with Faraday cages for WiFi routers/access points
Well I mean, they do exactly what they're supposed to. You just have to live with the side effect of your WiFi no longer working
