Ever walked into a room and wished the smell would just disappear? Not masked. Not “covered up.” Just... gone? That’s what Modest & Co. set out to do—using real molecular science, not a bottle of synthetic “Fresh Breeze #42.”
TL;DR: Modest & Co. sprays don’t mask smells—they eliminate them. Using enzyme-powered, plant-based tech, our natural odor neutralizer deactivates odor molecules at the source. No heavy perfumes, no toxic chemicals, just clean air and a product that works harder (and looks better) than anything else on the shelf.
The Problem: Cover-Up Culture
Most sprays try to out-scent the stink. You’re left with air that smells like a panic attack in the candle aisle—layers of lemon over smoke over regret.
- Masks, doesn’t fix: Cheap sprays don’t remove odor molecules—they just add stronger ones.
- Harmful ingredients: Phthalates, parabens, mystery chemicals? No thanks.
- Short-term results: Smell returns once the perfume fades.
The Modest & Co. Solution: Enzyme-Driven Deactivation
We don’t play the fragrance game. Our enzyme-based formula breaks down the actual molecules causing odor. It’s like flipping a switch so your nose can’t detect the smell anymore.
- Odor-neutralizing enzymes: Target terpenes (cannabis), sulfur (food), ammonia (sweat), and other compounds at the source.
- Molecular change: Enzymes bind to these molecules and alter their structure, rendering them non-volatile and odorless.
- Scientifically backed: Studies show enzyme-based deodorization is more effective and safer than masking agents.
Want receipts? Here are two real studies showing how enzymatic deodorization works:
- PubMed: Mechanisms of odor elimination via enzymatic degradation
- ScienceDirect: Enzyme-based breakdown of odor-active compounds
What “Natural” Actually Means Here
We’re done with “natural” as a meaningless label. For us, it means:
- Plant-derived solvents and active enzymes—no toxic fillers or harsh synthetics.
- No parabens, phthalates, or petroleum ingredients
- Safe for real life: pets, kids, smoke sessions, and everyday use
And yes, we’re actively working toward third-party certifications to back this up.
Real-World Use Cases (Tested, Not Theorized)
- Blunt rotation aftermath? Terpenes neutralized.
- Post-curry kitchen funk? Sulfuric molecules deactivated.
- Litter box standoff? Game over for ammonia.
- Gym bag blues? Bye, sweat stank.
We’ve tested it in bedrooms, bathrooms, vehicles, and parties. It works—quietly and effectively.
Design That Speaks Volumes by Saying Nothing
Most sprays look like they belong under a gas station sink. Ours? Minimal, clean, discreet. Designed to sit on your shelf like it belongs there. Because true luxury doesn’t scream. It whispers. Or better—it neutralizes.
