well, gasoline can actually cause damage to the snake.
as far as air fresheners, it may throw off the scent of the food and you may have feeding issues but it shouldn't harm the snake. Personally, I've never had a problem with them. Aspen has a pretty strong scent, and sometimes so does snake feces, but they ignore it. I doubt it will care about cinnamon.

I've kept my ball and boa on aspen..and they are not bothered by it at all no noticeable change in feeding behavior or otherwise.

That's a gorgeous SNAKE.
