Glade "new" apple cinnamon spray, yikes!

Irishgirl555 · ‎02-05-2012

I have loved Glade Apple cinnamon spray for years, but they came out with a replacement. It says "NEW 2X more fragrance" on the can but just letting everyone know it smells horrible!! I messaged the company & they sent me some coupons which I appreciate. So now I'm on the hunt for the original version! I'd recommend testing any sprays in the store first!!

Gee, it's kinda early for apple cinnamon room spray. I didn't think that was out until September-ish. How was it horrible, an actual change in the scent or just too much?

@Irishgirl555 I am SO glad you posted this. I have used Glade Apple Cinnamon forever and the new "frangrance" (more like "odor!") is absolutely horrible. I thought that maybe I got a bad batch -- but apparently not.

Oh my goodness! Unless there are testers provided, and we know there are not, to suggest anyone test a spray in the store is responsible. Not only would you utilizing something you've not paid for, but it ignores anyone in the area that might be sensitive to fragrances.

Your best chance to find the original version is in the dollar stores or Big Lots.

I hate when companies "improve" their products. Usually it's just a "change", not an improvement.

You might like pure natural cinnamon oil instead. It's all natural and smells wonderful. I put a few drops on a bowl of pinecones by my door in the Fall and Winter and it makes everything smell warm and inviting.

actually I did not spray it! That's the point, I wish I would have and then I wouldn't be stuck with two cans that stink!

@Tinkrbl44 is so right. When companies "improve" things it makes me very leery.

I remember when Prell concentrate "improved" by adding the scent of lemon.

Back in (I think) the 70s everything that existed was suddenly lemon scented.

As someone who loathes the taste,scent, and very idea of lemon anything (yes, especially lemonade!!) I was so unhappy that things like Prell and Pledge and all kinds of daily used items were suddenly abhorrent to me!

I wish that the original Pledge scent would come back. It made the house smell so nice that I didn't even mind dusting!

I used to occasionally buy Renuzit, but the Glade scents have always seemed very strong to me.

That's interesting that you mentioned this. We were shopping yesterday and my husband added a bathroom air freshener spay can to the basket saying, "I don't like the Apple Cinnamon we have at home". I didn't realize the change of fragrance.
