Advantages: easy to use, economical, does the job & looks attractive

Disadvantages: not good around certain people/ environment

It's strange how everyone's house has it's own smell isn't it? When you live there permanently you don't seem to notice it but I'm always aware that visitors may detect something our family have become used to.

I'm not a great fan of aerosols to be honest. preferring candles or pot pourri, but these aren't always available/practical & having a dog & cat I like to think our home smells good which is when I reach for Air Wick Odour Stop.

Air wick produce many fragrances in different forms from plug-ins, candles, blocks to areosols. I prefer using something that gives an instant, quick burst of freshener rather than a continuous fragrance & Lavender Odour Stop is my favourite.

It cost just over £1 for a 300ml which is easy to use & is attractive enough not to hide in the cupboard. It has an unusual dispenser action (as shown in the picture) & just a quick squeeze, in my opinion, does the job in a small-sized room so I think it's very economical to use.


It not only seems to stop obvious odours but also releases a fine mist which has a subtle, pleasant & not overpowering lavender smell which works straightaway & creates a relaxed atmosphere.

Although the product is manufactured in Swindon, the ingredients are printed in another language - Hebrew - so I can't tell you what's in it. However, there's a long list of cautions written in English re: flammability, solvent abuse etc plus storage & disposal advice.

Airwick claim the aerosol 'eliminates odours without covering them up' & I'd agree because when I've used cheaper, non-odour stop products I've noticed that the underlying smell returns as soon as the fragrance has faded.

I wouldn't use this all the time & it certainly wouldn't be advisable to use around people who may have breathing difficulties & asthma etc. I'm also aware of 'doing my bit' for the environment but feel when used in moderation, this certainly does the trick & will continue to buy it.

summary
~
- well-priced as you only need a squirt.
- looks attractive & is really easy to use.
- seems to stop odours rather than mask them.
- lovely lavender smell which isn't overpowering.
- recommend this Lavender as well as Mountain Air.

Summary: well worth a try if you use aerosols
