To be heartbroken with disappointment at purdy and figg

The rhubarb Method is lovely.

What is your worktop made from?

P&F were discussed a lot on a recent 'de-influencing' thread (great thread and worth looking up). It was basically people mentioning things that they were considering buying and posters giving them hard truths about why they shouldn't. I actually posted that I was tempted by P&F and told in no uncertain terms that it was a con and the fragrance lasts about three seconds.

I'm sticking with my Method cleaning products which don't last that long but do smell lovely when cleaning.

I was also really disappointed with P&F OP. I now make my own using isopropyl alcohol (£16 for 5 litres from amazon) 2 parts to 1 part water and add 5/10ml of essential oil (Nikura do some nice ones), in an old spray bottle. No nasty chemicals and you can dilute the scent to suit yourself.

Ok, I've missed the skinny about the Range Rover Evoque- what's wrong with them? In this rural area, they're quite popular.

Don’t be ridiculous.

YANBU OP I really wanted to try these sprays but a friend got them and said they were crap so I didn’t bother. I hate a disappointing purchase 😂 But you might get some comfort that someone will read this and not waste money? Im using Tallow and Ash fabric sprays and they are ok

It's easily obtainable at Sainsbury, Tesco and Waitrose!

Overpriced crap…totally ruined my worktop, had to be replaced.

White vinegar is better at actual cleaning.

I quite like the smells and the concept that it’s avoiding too much plastic, but I’ve cancelled my subscription as I don’t like things arriving when I actually don’t need them, plus I don’t like the constant sell. The Cornish Seaweed shampoo though - that’s overhyped rubbish.

I love (most of) their smells but I agree they do not last long at all, it is marketing nonsense. I signed up to a Christmas bundle and have just noticed that my next ‘order’ is in the post which is my own stupid fault for not cancelling. I am cancelling my subscription today.

The only thing I’ve found that is halfway decent in terms of longevity are the loo drops, but that’s probably only because my downstairs loo is tiny so doesn’t take a lot to maintain a nice smell in there!

I want my home to smell like a spa, goddammit, and it never does. My kitchen sides get sprayed and wiped down multiple times a day and the smell is gone as soon as they’re dry.

I do like the Tallow and Ash fabric sprays, but even those don’t last very long. NEOM also do these little hanging ceramic circles that only cost a fiver each that you can drop their lovely smelly oils on. I keep one in my shoe cupboard and that actually does last for a good week before I need to add a few more drops.

Do an honest review and save some poor other sucker some money

Another marketing con

Aw, its showing as out of stock and no indication if it will ever be restocked.

Thanks for the warning.
I'm an absolute sucker for the insta ads.
I've had all sorts of absolute rubbish because the ads just keep popping up all the time.

Halaira (?) leggings - they're rubbish
Wonder skin lip stain - rubbish
Il makiage foundation - rubbish

This is just another thing that pops up again and again and I'm TOO WEAK!!
I will not be buying it.

I think genuinely good stuff probably just sells itself rather than has to keep popping up again and again and again via targeted ads...

Personally I like it and can smell it for the rest of the day. I use in the kitchen mainly and as it gets wiped down every day it works for me. Find it is more subtle than the overbearing chemical smells of others but it is pricey.

I use it because it’s a natural cleaning product. It smells good when you use it but if I want to mask or clear up say cooking smells I boil a pot of water with lemons and cinnamon, and it clears the smells from the kitchen. Obviously I open the window as well. I find purdy and fig products good on grease so that’s won me over. I don’t use lots so it lasts for a while.

It looks amazing but I’ve never bought it for this reason.

ive never been “tight”, but I’m getting increasingly fed up of constant aggressive marketing techniques, people from every direction aggressively pedalling their wares of increasingly shit quality.

I just don’t want any of it anymore.

I bought the very cheap opening deal then cancelled, as I didn't really like the fragrances very much.

it's over a year and I've used a fraction of it. The bottles and cloths are nice and it's okay as a handy bottle of cleaning stuff, so I don't think it's that bad value for a one off.

Agree, the hype is absurd.

Yup, I got sucked in too. And I actively dislike the citrus bathroom cleaner, it gets down me and feels very chemically.

My new all time favourite is INEOS Antibac Multi-Room Cleaner Bergamot + Cedarwood (must be the bergamot and cedarwood one though).

It cleans everthig really well, is great value for money at around £2.50 for 750ml and more importantly, it smells divine - real spa smell!

It’s a cleaning product. Do your other cleaning products smell for days after? I Like it because it is natural without horrible chemicals and it smells nice when you clean. Does the advertising say it smells for ages? If it does, I agree that’s not the case.

Completely agree OP, I do like the smell for the seconds I’m spraying them, but they don’t linger at all. I thought maybe if I used them in our tiny downstairs toilet room they might, but even in that small room with the door closed, still no scent when you go back in later. I bought some without subscription as had seen comments about them being very hard to cancel, I wouldn’t ever buy them again: When I had cleaners years ago, I’d always come home and know they’d been as my house smelt lovely (maybe it was just a spray or something they used at the end), I never thought to ask what they used.

DH got sucked into this bullshit too. What a fool.

Clean is clean. Odourless, fresh. This idea that clothes or your house have to smell of whatever chemicals you have used to clean them is totally warped.
