Camphor is made chemically from turpentine oil. It's known for its strong aroma by which it can be used as mosquito rrepellent and as room fresher also.

On opening the box of camphor, the smell starts to mix with air molecules present. And due to diffusion property , it starts getting spread from region of higher concentration area to the low concentration area till a equilibrium is attained.

Why because camphor is a thing that can be spread the smell all over the room and it is done by crystallization process. when we opened camphor box it is exposed with air and smell will flow with air....
