Do air fresheners really freshen the air? What do you think?

OUST will freshen the air and kills like 99.9% of the nasty things floating in the air that will get you sick. As for air fresheners they just make the air smell better.

Most air fresheners just perfume the air to mask the smell but i think there are air purifyers that do make the air fresher by removing foul smells form the air

Yes and no. The scented fragrances just cover up odors usually and personally make me sneeze. I've heard that some of the newer sprays that don't have fragrances fall to the ground carrying airborne odors, so it takes it out of the air, but doesn't get rid of them.
Personally, I prefer a product called "fridge IT" carbon odor absorber. Littler purple cube that eliminates the odors and no spray or powders. Works great and I don't bother with sprays. And, I can use it also in my refrigerator.

They temporarily cover up the smell, only making the air smell better. If you have bad odor that you are trying to get rid of you need to go to your local janitorial supply store and purchase an odor release product, this gets rid of the smell instead of masking it

Air freshners cover the smell. Either that or blend with the smell that is already there and make it smell worse than what it did, lol. But, Lysol came out with something that kills ordor and germs in the air and it smells good too.
