I'm hoping some suggestions will inspire me to clean.

Those of you who've tried the method cream custard - does it smell like custard cream biscuits and is it very sweet or not?

I can't decide whether to try it . . .

It's more like vanilla than sweet custard.

I like the sound of that 😋

Flash multi purpose bicarbonate - smells really fresh, reminds me of clean washing powder smell.

I particularly like the flash Spray, wipe done range
The bathroom one is lovely and fresh
The kitchen one smells of mandarins and the pet odour cleaner is lovely too

What are these “Spanish” cleaning products you speak of?!

I use Method Clementine in the kitchen and Flaps Febreeze in the bathroom.

WingateAndSlim · 18/05/2024 11:49

Oh holy autocorrect!

That was meant to say FLASH Febreeze!

😳

That's the best autocorrect fails I've seen in ages, thank you 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

The Spanish cleaning things you can get from here https://littlespanishcleaningcompany.co.uk/ and others. Apparently they smell amazing but I can't say I've tried them

My nose, purse and pets get on pretty well with the M&S range.

Flash French soap multipurpose spray is THE most amazing clean smell. I can’t get enough of the stuff.

longtompot · 18/05/2024 12:43

I bought this as it was on offer and I just love it! Really fresh smell and cleaned really well. If it's still on offer next shop I'll be stocking up

longtompot · 18/05/2024 12:51

Oh my link disappeared 🤔

Edit because it did it again. Anyway, in case it doesn't work again, it's Ineos rhubarb and pomegranate antibacterial spray

FfsJaney · 18/05/2024 13:55

I had a sniff of all the Ineos products the other days and I thought they were all revolting. Really cheap and nasty and pungent.

Redlarge · 18/05/2024 13:56

Just amazing smelling spanish cleaning brands and detergent. Im markets and corner shops and people sell them on Facebook and tik tok shop.

Whatineed · 18/05/2024 14:03

I add a cap of Zoflora White Linen to my mop bucket and it really freshens the rooms when I do the floors.

I'm lucky to be able to shop in France and buy everything that's scented or containing Savon de Marseille. It's gorgeous. 😍

I know it smells lovely but that's a step too far

I love this but haven't been able to find it lately, do they still make it?

Method products all smell great but as a cleaner who spends her life cleaning (!) - I’d add another vote for good old Flash products- they are far superior at actually cleaning imo
particularly the bathroom spray (lovely soapy clean smell and brilliant at removing limescale)
the orange kitchen spray ( removes all food stains/ greasy residue)
and the flash febreeze floor cleaner.

Get your gym clothes on and some music pumping and you I’ll soon get into it. 😁

That's really interesting to hear from someone who cleans for a living, thank you.

Dr Bronner liquid soap ( Almond is my favourite )

Anythng I use needs to be safe for the cats to walk on and in line with my ethics .

I just got some Purdy & Figg -- lovely stuff and works well! Smells divine!

I was given some for Xmas and while it smells fine it doesn't clean well
I have used Neat concentrate which seems good and smelly!

MercyDulb0ttle · 18/05/2024 19:49

Tesco bathroom spray is lovely. My cleaning clients all used to say how lovely it was to come home with the house smelling of it.

SabbatWheel · 18/05/2024 19:56

I love Flash spray wipe done glass cleaner (Lavender and Rosemary) and use it as a multi surface cleaner. It’s fab everywhere and smells lush.
