My house/Zoflora

Posting here for traffic.
My house is a bit horrid. I have pets and a messy DH (who does get on board when I have a proper 'spruce' but doesn't notice the daily grime). I can keep on top of genuine rubbish but clutter builds easily. I know nobody can sort this out for me and I am working on it.
What bothers me most is smell. Although it's clean ish, it doesn't smell fresh. I do open windows for a bit every day.
I bought some miracle potion Zoflora yesterday and already mop the floors with it. I want to know what I can do with it as almost like a reed diffuser/air freshener?
I don't put the heating on much (have a log burner) so don't think putting it on radiators would work. I do hoover relatively regularly so can try the cotton wool trick. Anything else I could try? Is it really safe to spray on curtains? Any other tips for a pet household for smell? Thanks in advance!

The cleaner at work by the smell of it, has just discovered Zoflora. The office, kitchen and toilets smell amazing!

SuePerkins · 05/11/2016 10:31

I've got issues... I'm up to 9 flavours now!
Springtime - not keen, a bit sickly
Summer Bouquet, Bouquet and Sweet Pea - same as above, don't think the florals are for me.
Fresh Linen - gorgeous!
Citrus Fresh - love it for wiping round the kitchen
Winter Morning - favourite so far!
Green Valley - haven't used it yet but think I'll like it for damp dusting & using on upholstery in lounge.
Winter Spice - bought two bottles in Poundland in case they run out. Love it for Christmas!
Sniffed Warm Cinnamon - nice but not as nice as Winter Spice. And Orange & Cinammon was it? Not keen on the fruity/spicy combo.

SuePerkins · 05/11/2016 10:32

I lied Grin 10 flavours. Also purchased Twilight Garden, yummy!

Anarchy just won the thread today 🙏🏻👏🏻

Omg this thread has done something to me! I am terrible with cleaning and housework, have a couple of mental and physical health issues and a very unhelpful partner but reading this the past few days has transformed me!

I feel fairly obsessed with Zoflo now, it's pretty much all I've thought of for the past couple of days Confused

Manged to get Winter Spice from Poundland on thursday and have done many great things with it, but I keep seeing that people have Winter Morning and I read that has mint in it - I honestly cannot rest until I have this but can't seem to find it. It's really getting to me!

Am just about to go out and hit all the shops within a two mile radius that I haven't tried so am hoping somewhere has it. If I can't find it (can't believe I'm actually writing this), I wondered if anyone has a spare bottle of it that they'd be willing to sell to me?!

Eevee2016 · 05/11/2016 16:10

Nevermind, found it in Superdrug. Life is complete :)

AnarchyKitty · 05/11/2016 16:31

I'm desperate for Winter Morning, Rose and Twilight Garden. Never thought of Superdrug!

Eevee2016 · 05/11/2016 16:52

Yes I was really surprised too Anarchy! Went in for some shampoo and walked past the cleaning section and there it was, along with Rose and Bouquet. I got a Rose one too, going to try that tomorrow as just gone on a Winter Morning frenzy!
Mmm yes I want Twilight Garden too Grin

I started imagining Zoflora candles earlier...

AnarchyKitty · 05/11/2016 18:36

Zoflora candles!!!!

I really want Winter Spice now after reading the latest posts!

Haffdonga · 05/11/2016 21:39

Winter Spice - nah not keen. Has a cherry cough mixture tang.

There's a honeysuckle & jasmine flavour. I need it!

Kidnapped · 07/11/2016 12:04

Just tried the Cranberry and Orange.

Not feeling the love. Smells a bit neither one thing nor another.

Will use it up though. And then onto the Winter Spice, which I do like.

SleepFreeZone · 07/11/2016 13:16

I'm still really loving Bouquet here 😍

Poppypoochischristmascrackered · 07/11/2016 13:53

Just bought the cranberry and orange haven't tried it yet though, will update on Zaflora scentometer, lavender is at bottom and fresh linen at top at moment. could all change when I open bottle though
Iceland also sell them Grin

Poppypoochischristmascrackered · 07/11/2016 13:58

This is my perfect Christmas hamper I need to get out more

TheLionQueen · 07/11/2016 21:34

Oh yes would it be sad to make one for yourself?!
Got to say I'm impressed - did a washing up bowl of diluted fresh linen before guests came on Saturday afternoon. Tipped it down before they arrived and after washing up tonight I can still smell it! Beats stinky sink!

I am not impressed with Twilight Garden. At all. Sad face.

Mozfan1 · 07/11/2016 21:46

Stop the press

The big bottles are half price at wilko

bluebump · 07/11/2016 21:50

Finally got my hands on the apple orchard one, thanks to whoever said I'd find it in home bargains. My favourite is green valley still.

IneedAdinosaurNickname · 07/11/2016 21:53

I was passing through a different town on my way home yesterday. I got off the bus 5 mins before their poundland closed so I rushed there as fast as I could in the hope I'd find zofloras I didn't have.
My run paid off and I've now added lavender and hyacinth to my collection Grin

PrancerForHoney · 08/11/2016 06:56

My addiction and haul is ever growing. I am justifying it by dividing it into two cupboards, kitchen and bathroom. 😁 I sprayed the bedroom rug and radiator with Winter Spice and my god, its so lovely I didn't want to get up.
I have to go out for work today so I'm going to have a quick dart into Superdrug and see what they have on offer.
