I got Vanilla Mint at Bed, Bath and Beyond about a year ago. It was $10.  I hate the smell-would rather smell the "other".

You can make your own rather cheaply with some essential oils. Lots of recipes on Pinterest about it.

I know, many of them are really stinky and not any better than no. 2! ick.

To me, the scent of the product is a non-issue.  It's not like you'll be wearing it as a cologne; it's flushed down the toilet.  The important part is the fact that the product works, which I can also attest that it does.

I remember laughing the first time I saw the Poo Pourri presentation, and thought it was silly .... and overpriced.   Then I saw that the ratings were very high, so it obviously works.

A couple weeks ago I saw a product in the dollar store called Fresh Drop ... same product, tiny bottle with a screw on cap.  Perfect as a "sample" ... and it worked surprisingly well!      There are probably other "generics" out there .... or on their way to retailers now.

yes, we use it.......and i am one of those people that DO give it as a christmas gift. i gave a set to my mom because she has some "issues"  that were caused by an accident and multiple surgeries 12 years ago.

i keep them in all of my bathrooms. i also do what another poster suggested and use perfumes that i dont care for in this capacity.

right now in my own bathroom i have the scent "call of the wild." i tend to prefer the citrus/fruit scents.

i also use "shoe-pourri."

check out their website.....they are currently running a 22% off with the code that is listed on their homepage.

The stuff really works! I buy the small bottle (set/5) collection and have one bottle in each bathroom as well as in my purse. My elderly emother uses a bedside commode at night due to mobility issues, and she has a little bottle next to her bed.

I prefer the citrus-y scents but all that are in the set/5 collection are pleasant enough. If I remember, there is one that is rather heavy though.

I think you'd be pleased with any of the scents, but if you are uncertain you can't go wrong with something citrus.
