Creating a portable ac outlet?

My girlfriend wants me to make a portable battery powered ac outlet for a plug in air freshener (why not just plug it into the wall??) I have searched the Internet, but could find the right idea I'm looking for. I have seen ideas of converting a battery powered item to ac, or a big solar panel ac outlet. Is what I'm wanting to do even possible?

Is she not aware of some of the battery powered air fresheners out there? Or ones that don't need a heat source to do there job?

Use something smelly that's powered by a candle, or batteries.

Battery + inverter to make AC from the battery DC is all you need.

Very possible for the little load of an air freshener.
