Advantages: It's automatic and because it sprays throughout the day it doesn't waste the smell all at once
Disadvantages: The Mulled Wine spray is very spicy smelling - not my fav
For years I have been looking for an air freshener that will last the distance without having to buy a refill that costs the same price as buying a new air freshener. I stumbled across this on sale for £6 with a winter collection spray, they usually cost £12.
At first I wasn't so sure about it because it's quite bulky so not exactly something that you can hide away somewhere. It's white in colour with a blue button on the front. But after trying so many other ones I thought I may as well give it a shot.
Once I got it home and opened it up I realised why it needed to be so big, the refill is a 250ml spray tin. you open up the white container by the white button on the top, which is very easy to open. Usually I find these things difficult to open but it was really easy. You need to first put in 2x AA batteries. Then push in the refill. You the have a button to choose whether you want to have it spray every 9, 18 or 36 minutes automatically. It also has an option to have it switched off. There is a green light on the front so you know if it's on, it flashes every 10 seconds so you know that the batteries haven't died on it or you know it's on.
Once you've set it to the time you want simply place it where you want and let it do the rest of the work. I've now had mine for just over 3 months and still not had to change the refill or the batteries. Mine is set on 36 minutes and does spray out quite a lot. Make sure it's not sitting somewhere where it can spray straight at someone. Unfortunately mine decided to spray when I was showing my friend what it was. She did smell good for the rest of the night though!! :)
As well as it being automatic you have the choice to spray it whenever you want as well with the blue button on the front. So if you need an extra couple of sprays you can do this whenever you want.
When you are happy with where you have set this in your house you can also put a screw in your wall and hang it up as it has a bit at the back for this option.
The refills cost about £3.49 each which is really good value for money as they last so long. I now have 2 of these and have bought 2 refills which i'm dying to use as they both smell great.
I now have winter collection - Mulled Wine which is my least favourite.
Citrus - which smells of soft lemon which isn't too over-powering.
My favourite so far is green apple and water lily - this smells quite clean and fresh. Love having it round my home.
You don't have to keep the refill in until it's done you can swap them over - i'm just trying to get rod of the winter one because I don't want to be using it in the summer.
Highly recommend - it last longer than any of the other air fresheners. Even at £12 when not on sale it is definately worth the money
