kfintoni Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Good morning, So in my quest for a Bleach like scent I ordered 3 samples from SOS: Bleach, Chlorine and Swimming Pool. Nope not even close and my nose is very familiar with the bleach/chlorine smell as all 4 of my kids are swimmers. This was a request for one of my wholesale accounts. They are looking for that fresh scrubbed clean scent that is not Pine nor Floral. Does anyone have anything I can suggest to them? I am at a loss on this one. Thanks, Karen in MA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbla Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 A few of my favorite scents I'd put in the "clean" category are AH/RE "Badedas" (if they even still have this) and Nature's Garden "Cracklin' Birch" and "Desire". Probably a ton of the men's cologne type of scents would fall in this area. I loooooooooooove lavender but that's a floral. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love crackling birch but that is too smokey. I know exactly what the customer is looking for in regards to a scent, like fresh bleached sheets hanging on the line or that light scent of bleach on your hands after scrubbing the bathroom.

Sebleo Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 What did SOS bleach smell like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I'd go with a linen scent. Possibly cotton but it sounds to me more like they want a linen but don't realize that is what they want. Linen smells fresh, clean, straight from the wash especially if you find one with notes of ozone in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah S Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Try "Sparkling Clean" from Aztec. I just made some tarts with it, it's very light and fresh, lemony but not a straight up lemon Pledge kind of smell. Definitely no pine in it. If there's floral notes, they are well blended, cause I can't really pick them out. I also thought Aztec's "Sassy" was very clean, but that one edges toward the floral side. WSP has a "Clean Laundry" that I though was appealing and not too strong on the floral notes. I think Candybee is right on the money with the linen suggestion! Candlewic has a linen that sounds great, but I haven't tried it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karen in MA Candlesource has a Sun Washed Linen ,very very strong sun dried linen smell. Also lemongrass is a fresh clean smell .Clean Cotton is a good one from Candlesource as well.
