Well I received a campaign invite to Glade Expressions which I thought "WOW does BzzReport know how much my house smells like my 3 dogs"?! lol! I was interested in trying this product because I personally rarely purchase any air freshener items unless I can get a real deal. Lets face it, in this economy it's hard enough to feed 5 people and 3 dogs in a household like mine for only $100 a week! So air freshener is a luxury. With this said, I was a little pressed to find this new product on local store shelves right away. I managed to find a SMALL selection at the next town over- Giant Eagle. There were only 2 varieties of the oil diffuser kits and 2 selections of the fragrance mist starter kits.
I purchased the Cotton & Italian Mandarin fragrance mist starter kit at the Painesville, Ohio Giant Eagle and on first impression of the "kit" it simply looks like a fancy spray can. I am not sure how it works as a refillable kit. Now I see how the bottom unscrews open and there is a canister (under pressure) inside which is the spray and because it is refillable with any scent, the label is easily removed if you wish. Nice. I can say the only small draw back is the screw open/close bottom. This will be a little difficult for people with arthritis as to screw it close (you have to get it just right to screw it back on). Now about the scent I purchased. I didn't use it right away. It was my daughter who was complaining about a "smell" in her room that initially wanted to use the fragrance mist. The next thing you know, she is spraying it all over the house and what a nice scent the Cotton & Italian Mandarin turned out to be! We both looked at each other and exclaimed it smelled "fresh" yet not overwhelming.
At the same time I had opened the Oil Diffuser starter kit in Lavender & Juniper Berry and quickly put it together. I placed it on my computer desk origionally but after my 17 year old son complained of how strong the smell of pine and wild flowers was, I moved it. I don't recomend placing it right where it will be in your face. It is a great item to fill a room slowly and the Lavender & Juniper Berry scent would be better suited for the holidays I think.
I love the cotton & italian mandarin so much that I plan to purchase refills as soon as I can but I personally don't plan to purchase a refil for the oil kit anytime soon. I am extra happy that I have these items as of this moment though. Not only for the dogs but we have grandma and grandpas recently purchased 5th wheel camper which we started to clean out. It has been in storage for years, thus finding it turned into a mouse habitat and smells quite musty. Will Glade help this? I plan to find out quickly! KIT.......
