All charcoal has some deodorizing benefit. Modern charcoal produced for health and home applications is generally made by burning bamboo or coconut fibers in a setting designed to maintain purity. While some of the same benefits can be gained by using raw charcoal attained through, for example, the remnants of the campfire, the purity of naturally acquired charcoal may be lower. For use as a deodorizer, homemade charcoal may be sufficient.
