Fabulosa Wild Rhubarb Foam Freshener Carpet Spray 300ml smells so strong to start with i have been told off by my son. Its great for freshening up sofa or carpet. Its strong though it does lessen obviously but if you want something with a kick in the teeth to hide something else this is the one you want.

My indulgence is Rituals diffuser sticks- scents of the Hamman. Makes the whole room smell like a spa. A little bit pricey but bottle lasts a while and smells beautiful right to the last drop. Then I put the sticks in myaring cupboard and get the last lingering aroma into my towels ☺️

We just use our scented candles & a electric candle warmer. It works great! The candles last forever. We have a pretty good variety of candles too so we change them out periodically.

Just uses water and essential oils and it's cleans air as well can be used as a diffuser or humidifier. It also has auto shut off so when it runs out of water it stops so doesn't cause fires and can be left to do it's thing. Can set it for 1hr, 3hr and 6hr intervals

Add one tbsp bicarb, essential oils of your choice and distilled water to a spray bottle. Shake well and spray. Bicarb makes this room and linen spray into homemade febreeze.

Prices 'Chefs reed diffuser' . BE WARNED this is the strongest smell I have ever come across. I was way too powerful for my flat so I wrapped it in 2 layers of clingfilm while I worked out what to do with it and I could still smell it. Use with caution!

Research ANOSMIA It's when your brain stops smellung something because it's used to the smell. Best to keep a few scents to hand and swap every few days.  
by (560 points)
@ma67537 @saturn Sharpe I do that !  
by (660 points)
@rains70558 yup everybody's brain does. I swap warmers and scents. Just keep the wax at the side for use another day xx

Depends. I dont like to mask the smell, and prefer to get rid of it if possible. If you know the sourse, sofa bicarb helps a lot. If it's impossible to clean, bags with charcoal reduce odours. if it's a pet's smell, I cant advise on it. I am sensitive to smells, so stopped having pets for the sake of my mental health.
