Summary
Glade PlugIns scented oil is almost entirely a trade-secret fragrance mixture (60–100%) in dipropylene glycol, heated by the plug-in so it emits continuously. SC Johnson's own safety data sheet for the Clean Linen refill classifies the oil as a suspected reproductive toxicant (GHS Category 2) with about 72% volatile organic compounds, and the label carries fragrance-allergen and eye-irritant warnings. SC Johnson does disclose components and says it is made without phthalates, formaldehyde and nitro musks, but continuous indoor emission of a largely undisclosed, hazard-classified fragrance keeps this score low.
