Is there a carpet freshener that actually smells quite nice? I will get carpet cleaned at some point but just as a temporary freshener?

The 1001 carpet freshener spray is really nice

It's a foam so you don't even need to hoover it's up

Another vote for 1001 carpet freshener.

This is lovely!

It's just perfume really, isn't it?

Fabulosa from B&M have quite a few fragrances & work well.

I use the capsule things that go in the vacuum bag (Band M)

Ooh thanks for the suggestions.

You still get shake n vac

Limer · 16/12/2021 20:37

Why not actual Shake 'n' Vac? The vanilla one is lovely.

I get stuff from my friend who sells scentsy type stuff!

They are lovely!

Bicarbonate of soda on the carpet. Leave for half an hour then Hoover up.

Lou98 · 16/12/2021 20:42

Also a vote for the 1001 carpet foam. Just spray it on and it soaks in and makes the room smell amazing!
My favourite is the Thai Orchid one

ponkydonkey · 16/12/2021 20:53

Bicarbonate of soda will soak up any horrid smell
Leave on for as long as possible and Hoover

squishee · 16/12/2021 20:55

Shake n vac is just fragranced bicarbonate of soda.

And that helps the OP.... how exactly?
WisestIsShe · 16/12/2021 20:57

I don't think you're supposed to use shake and vac with bagless cleaners.

savvy7 · 18/12/2021 21:15

Bicarb soda with few drops of essential oil

crazyjinglist · 18/12/2021 21:21

Yep - homemade shake 'n vac. Big tub of bicarb, add some drops of lavender oil.
