| 42ENGLISH's Full Review: Glade Air Infusions |
I am a sucker for air fresheners. Oils, wisps, plug-ins, you name it, I’ve used it. I am far from obsessive-compulsive but I hate a smelly house. I usually have the plug-ins going and the scented candles a-burning and I still have to spray the air once in a while. I have probably come up with more new scents from my combinations than Glade has put together.
I go to my local Dollar Store to buy my paper products (it’s much cheaper), you know, toilet tissue, paper towel, etc., and I saw this Glade Air Infusions there for a buck, fifty. Seemed cheap for Glade so I picked up the Refreshing Springs scent. It sounded appealing enough.
Glade’s Claim:
Eliminate odors and freshen the air with a subtle blend of natural scents that invite you in and leave your home smelling fresh! New Glade Air Infusionsuses UltraLast technology to infuse the air with fragrance that lasts up to 1 hour.
Stop spraying and start infusing with new Glade Air Infusions… for fragrance that lasts and lasts. Available in Refreshing Springs, Berry Splash, Clean Linen, and Garden Bliss.
My Experience:
This product comes in a curvy, 9oz spray can with a large cap and huge spray applicator. I like that, there is nothing more annoying than those tiny little white plastic spray nozzles that block up and spray foam all over your hand. This nozzle makes that impossible as the nozzle is never in contact with your finger.
It says “Glade Air Infusions Refreshing Springs soothes your senses like a naturally relaxing oasis in the forest.” Although it was cheap, it certainly didn’t smell cheap with its rich aroma. I wouldn’t say it’s relaxing but more of a “wake-me-up” scent with its citrucy/floral fragrance.
Glade claims that this air infuser lasts for “up to” an hour, indicating that it is super long-lasting. Well, yes, I tested it. I sprayed my kitchen and living room. Of course, at first, the scent was strong but as time went by, it waned but you could still smell it about half-an-hour later. An hour later, there was a very subtle hint of an aroma. So I would say that it does last a bit longer than other sprays.
I must point out that I do have a dog. Just a small dachsund/Pekingese (I know, he is funny-looking) and it covers up his dog-smell when he’s around the living room. Not that he stinks but he is a dog. He is getting a bit old now and has a little problem with, ahem….flatulence at times. Now, I can tell ya that this spray has eliminated our having to rush out of the room when this happens, a great inconvenience, especially in the middle of “Survivor”. A quick spray and “the pong” disappears. This freshener does seem to absorb odors instead of just covering them up.
A Couple of Warnings:
Use only as directed.
Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents can be harmful or fatal.
Do not use near fire, flame, or pilot light. Do not set on stove or radiator or keep where temperatures exceed 120° F, as container may burst.
Do not puncture or incinerate.
Store in a cool, dry place.
KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
Conclusion:
I like the spray applicator on this product which makes it impossible for the product to come in contact with your skin. I also like the scent that I chose. It was strong and a bit more sophisticated than other fresheners.
It does last a little longer than most other air fresheners. But the most important advantage is that Glade Air Infusions ABSORBS odors, it doesn’t just hide them. And it absorbs strong odors such as the dastardly one I have sprung on me sometimes.
