I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be

You are just exchanging one problem for another. We had a horrible smell in our basement right before we moved-a few bowls of white vinegar placed around and good ventilation took care of it in a few days.
Your link doesn't go anywhere. But yes, they need to be used with caution. They generate O3 which is toxic to anything that breathes O2. I said that above. But O3 is very unstable and once the extra Oxygen molecule attaches it to itself to something(the offending odor) it stabilizes back to O2. You can use them to even kill mold.
Some light reading on Febreze ingredients.
ingredients in Febreeze
I'll take this with a large grain of salt... One of the listed ingredients, propylene glycol, is a widely used and accepted, safe food ingredient, yet this writer claims it is carcinogenic. In fact, he claims almost everything in it is carcinogenic. To read this article, you'd think Febreeze will kill you dead.
Far too many of these "green" sites are run by people who have no expertise, or apparently even the ability to use Google.

Be sure to read up on ozone generators before spending good money. Apparently ozone is not necessarily an RVers friend if you want to purge an enclosure where people will occupy it. Just sayin'.
X2 Ozone is a very strong oxidizer. Overexposure to ozone can corrode metal and make some plastics brittle.

On the other hand. I love the way a camper smells when it smells like a campfire. I thought that was how they are supposed to smell. I am always disappointed when the smell fades away.
It is the biggest reason I camp. They won't let me have a fire at the motel
