What is it about cleaning products being scented with either that super fake “lemon fresh” aroma or something highly chemical? I don’t know about you, but even the thought of it turns my stomach.
Instead of these basic or overpowering smells, I always tend to opt for cleaning products that have more natural scents. Think: fresh, fruity and seriously zesty.
If, like me, you’d rather your home didn’t smell like a public toilet, it’s time to swap out the items you’re using – without compromising on the actual cleaning.
Wondering what the best nice smelling cleaning products are that actually work? I’ve rounded up a selection of a few best buys that I use again and again.

This gloriously fresh room spray (that doesn't smell of chemicals)
Often, when you spritz your home with a freshening spray, you're left smelling a super chemically scent. Thank goodness that's not the case with this multi-purpose jasmine and mint odour eliminating spray. (I have this at home, and the grapefruit and lychee vanilla version, and I am obsessed.)
