SMELLS BEGONE Air Freshener Spray - 12 oz, Pack of 2 - Odor Eliminator - Eliminates Odors from Smoke, Trash Cans, Cars, Pets & Boats - Fragrance Free

Many years ago we started using Smells Begone because it has absolutely no perfume or fragrance. When first applied, it has a very slight aroma reminiscent of the air after a thunderstorm. Within a minute that pleasant smell disappears. Note that the aroma is not from added fragrances. The makers don't put anything in the product.Smells Begone actually eliminates odors. Others, even the big deal Odo Ban & Frebreeze, cover everything with perfume. It does not make sense to "eliminate" an odor by covering it with another. Smells Begone actually destroys the odor.It's very effective on musty, stale smells. So far, Smells Begone has not stained nor discolored any fabric. It does permanently darken bare wood, but not finished wood. The only odor it can't seem to kill is when a plastic container, such as food storage or trash can, absorbs strong food odor. It certainly lessens to smell to a great extent, but I suppose once an odor is absorbed by plastic it's in there for good.This week, it got a torture test: Some Sodium Molybdate was spilled on a bare plywood sub floor. Nothing we've ever tried can get that odor out. It's permanent. But... Two treatments of Smells Begone, a day apart, eliminated 100% of the odor. Even when we re-wetted the wood with water, the odor was gone. It got the smell out of concrete, too.The product is also good for plastic that is out-gassing. It seems to draw the chemicals out of the plastic. Some items need repeated application, but it certainly speeds the process considerably. So, if you like the "new car smell", don't spray Smells Begone. It'll eliminate that "aroma".For fabric, it's great. It'll even get rid of gasoline & diesel smells. One can either spray the spot or add the product to the wash water. Sometimes with fabric, I'll wash, dry and then spray the fabric with quaternary ammonia to kill bacteria. Should any odor remain, Smells Begone will get rid of it.Smells Begone is safe and effective. It's never bothered my skin or respiratory system. In the gallon size, it's well worth the price.

Thanks

We've been using SmellsBeGone at home & work for years & years. Why Smells BeGone? No Perfumes!One does not need much of the product to eliminate the odor, so it's economical to use. Gallon size refills are available. At home, a gallon lasts for a few years.The magic potion removes musty odors, pet accident odors, trash container odors & even those car odors that build up over winter and present themselves in spring. For pet accidents, it eliminates the odor so well that another pet doesn't return to the spot to investigate who left the gift.If sprayed onto a surface and the surface is contaminated later with any odor that contains moisture, Smells BeGone comes back alive & returns to work. So the "residual action" of this product is very helpful for things like trash containers.For fabric, haven't encountered any for which this spray causes color problems. I'm sure they exist. On my canvass work jacket, if I go near someone's who is smoking, the jacket picks up the smell until washed. With Smell BeGone, a quick "dusting" with the spray bottle massacres the stinky smoke smell. No more walking around smelling like an ashtray.It is helpful with, believe it or not, groceries. Did you ever notice that many things purchased at a grocery store pick up the perfume that the manufacturer puts into the plastic checkout bags? The fake-flower-stink transfers to one's hands & smells up the pantry closet. A spritz of Smells Begone will destroy the smell lickety-split.There is a slight aroma when the product is first sprayed. To me, it smells like the air after a thunderstorm. This aroma leaves within minutes.The product is pretty much non-toxic. It is so benign that we don't need a MSDS or an SDS sheet at work. The warnings state that it may be "mildly irritating" if ingested or sprayed in the eyes. Bit, I'd still keep it away from kids & not spray your face. I have accidentally gotten it into my eyes and noticed nothing.Summary- After using it for years at home & work, this is my go-to product. Also note that the manufacturer, Punati, makes many specialty cleaning & deodorizing products which do their tasks with equal efficiently.

I came here searching for the original smells begone in the white bottle and flower pic on the front. That stuff was like magic. It was completely odorless and removed any foul scent. Well this is a close second.. it does a good job at eliminating odors but it does have a slightly soapy smell. It’s not bad and 100x better than most air fresheners on the market (which generally make me want to vomit). If you want good odor elimination and hate the smell of febreeze/gain/Lysol then this is your product.Update: 8/28/23I reordered this product and to my delight there was no soapy smell this time! Pure odorless bliss like the original.

This is by far the best product I have found to get rid of smells without masking the smell. I also use this as a monster just for my granddaughter when she’s having bad dreams about monsters so I can spray it throughout her room without having an overwhelming smell, but definitely something to keep in your bathrooms or your RVs. It doesn’t mask the smell. It actually gets rid of it. Highly recommend this product.

Purchased two bottles in Feb 2022. First bottle was initially great, however by June, the effectiveness was no longer there . The bottle initially had a fresh light “ fragrance free” smell but by June, that smell vanished along with the effectiveness . I opened the second bottle which still had the light smell and was still effective. Odd that the first bottle went “ bad” after only 1/2 the bottle was used .When it works, it’s great ! I purchased so support a local small business . I may give it another try ——- but only one bottle . Like I said, it’s lovely when it works . Freshens up any room including bedding .

Doesn't work. Smell still remains.

We bought this when our dog startled a skunk, and jumped onto the sofa before we realized what happened. (Yes, we used skunk-formula to wash the dog and the fabrics.)This totally helped with the residual skunk smell. Better than that, we have 5 cats, and 2 minutes after we scoop our litterboxes (we keep 6 litterboxes for them) they use one and the whole house smells again. Not with this! We can just spray a bit in the vicinity of a smelly litterbox, and the odor gone in minutes!Smells Begone has no scent of its own, as promised, yet is tremendously effective at what it does. I'll be buying more in future, for sure. (But won't need to for a while, this stuff goes a long way!)

I bought this product specifically to freshen up items that I inherited from a family member (cigarette smoke smell, and general musty smells from being in storage).It worked like a charm, even on cardboard boxes.

I'm beyond impressed with this product! I just received it today and have eliminated the smell of cigarette smoke from my sunroom furniture. I sprayed all the furniture cushions, the throw cushions and carpet twice and I can no longer smell cigarette smoke. The sunroom has three walls of screening but is boarded up in the winter and I smoke in there. 7 yrs of cigarette smoke stink has been eliminated! I am amazed. I had tried febreeze fabric spays but that was like putting perfume on a dirty body. This stuff gave the fabric a scent that was more like a new garment scent. I am beyond pleased. I highly recommend this product and I will be buying it again. Thank you so much to the makers of this product, as I cannot machine wash or hand wash the covers on the furniture cushions. . . I thought about dry cleaning them, but nothing on the launder instructions says anything about that. . .but surely with the amount of covers I have, it would cost over $500.00 in dry cleaning! THIS ROCKS!

Somehow gets rid of the smell of two very large garbage bins in a loading bay. It’s a bit of a slow-burn, as it sometimes isn’t instantaneous, but it works well!

This product is moderately effective in eliminating odors. I have tried others that aremore effective. I don't plan on re-ordering.
