Fresh Wave Original Odor Eliminator Gel 3-Pk 7 oz - Air Freshener for Home

These Fresh Wave orange odor eliminator gels have been doing exactly what I wanted them to do: keeping my home from getting that dank, stale smell that can sneak up on you. I like that this is a three-pack of 7-ounce containers because it gives me multiple gels to use around the house instead of relying on one in a single spot. The biggest compliment I can give an odor product is that I notice the house smells better without having to think about the product itself, and that’s been my experience here. The orange version is a nice option for freshening up the home while tackling those less-than-cute household smells. Simple, useful, and something I’m happy to keep around. Five stars from me!

These work very well. I set one in my grandsons hockey bag while we aired his equipment out and it really helped. He even liked the aroma (lavender). I also have one in our car under the seat and it takes care of odors as well as smells pleasant. It doesn’t have an overwhelming smell like many car fresheners. I use another one in my closet where there’s sometimes odors from shoes and laundry. Love these.

A skunk died in our subfloor. Then it rotted. Then it's scent gland rotted and permeated the whole house with the fragrance of a 1000 skunks at once. The smell abatement has been horrendous. Inevitably after about a week - we figured out where in the subfloor it was (after cutting a few holes into the subfloor from the crawlspace.) Skunk removed. (Full gasmask necessary.) Then the insulation was removed. Then virucide applied and then a odor absorbing fogger. Ran fans indoors and in the crawlspace 24/7 for weeks. I mean WEEKS. It was still lingering because I'm pretty sure the skunks chemicals seeped into the porous wood and walls in the area of the house where it died. Here's my pretty positive review for this product: once the animal was removed this product was the most helpful in removing the lingering whiffs of skunk that would seep up into the house. However, to note - YOU MUST HAVE CIRCULATING AIR moving over the gel. It doesn't work effectively if it's just sitting there - we have a fan on low circulating over the pots of the odor absorbers and that is what is actively helping to mitigate the smell. The downstairs closet is the worst and I have six of these on the floor in there with a fan on low running 24/7. Even when I open the closet door (we've taken everything out of this closet too aside from the fan and the odor absorbers at this point), if the fan has been running over the air fresheners, I can't smell the skunk. If I leave the fan off for 24 hours, the skunk smell, which is definitely still releasing chemicals from where the smell seeped into, the skunk smell re-pugnifies the closet despite the odor absorbers. So yes, these work great, if and only if you have air circulating over them so their odor absorbing molecules can move around and bond with the skunk smell molecules to neutralize them. I find the smell of the product to be fine - I'd prefer no smell - but my comparison is the smell of 10,000 burning rubber tires over rotting flesh, so.... this is great. I hope this never happens to you. But if it does, remove and replace everything you can, then run fans (and keep all your windows open, we also do this) for forever and buy a lot of these to help mitigate the smell. I'm hopeful we're nearing the end of this plight, it is much better than it was six weeks ago but has required a ton of work (and $$$). May the force be with you.

It actually works!!! Removes odor but doesn’t release much of a fragrance in a large room. Initially you can smell the lemon nearby in a small room

We have a dual-sink vanity in our main bathroom. My husband's side has had issues with some water leakage in the past, which I thought we had fixed. Even after some time, there has been a musty odor in the cabinet under the sink, like you'd experience in a basement back east. We live in Southern California where basements aren't frequently found. I decided to try this particular odor eliminator gel container option, versus a more expensive brand which has been aggressively marketing itself online lately. This one has a fresh lemony scent, which is nice. It has helped with the smells under that sink, but it seems messier than I expected. I went to pick it up and check the scent, and my hand came away wet from the underside of the container. I didn't have time to figure out where that moisture was coming from. Logic suggests that the container is leaking itself. Why would that be? The appearance is utilitarian - nothing special. It is fine for inside a cupboard or other hidden space. It's not a design that you'd want to have prominently on display, though. The price point seemed fair. The ingredients were touted as being natural; another reason that I chose it. I will have to figure out why I was getting wet fingers from handling the jar. What I discover will likely color my decision on whether to order this product again.

This was my third attempt at finding an Air Freshener deodorizer for my bathroom. I first tried the fancy-looking bottles with leaves and scent sticks that you put liquid in. Those smelled nice for half a day and evaporated totally within two weeks or less. Then I went to one made by Febreze, and not only did it take over the bathroom, but my entire house, and soon made my trash can smell great. I am finally happy to say three is the charm, and this product takes away the smell of some cockroach that died somewhere under the built-in cabinet but does not overpower you with an odor. There is a pleasant no odor in my bathroom with a slight hint of Lavender. Perfect!

I do like this gel as I do find it works pretty effectively. It is just so pricey!!! The price seems to keep going up and up, even with all their packaging changes. Buying it in this tub keeps the price somewhat reasonable per ounce, and it should last awhile - not too sure if I will be able to afford a refill again once I am done with this tub considering how it keeps going up! But, for now, this should last me a bit.

Smells nice at first but didn’t notice the smell over time. Not sure if I’ll repurchase, probably better for a small room or bathroom.

Amazing product! I use one in my car and it totally absorbs the smoke smell. It's not like an air freshener but definitely an elimator. Car doesn't smell like cigarettes in the morning. It does have a subtle essential oil lavender scent which is nice. I use the second one by my bong in my room. (This in combination with a smoke buddy eliminates any ordour). The issue is not smoking it, but opening my container. Nothing gets rid of the pungent skunk except this product! Air freshners help keep the room smell nice, this helps absorb the source Would definitely recommend

Love this, makes me house smell lovely

Honestly the only thing about parenting 2 kids under the age of 4 was the number of smells I’d be dealing with. Did someone hide a cheese stick somewhere? Does a diaper need changing? Did the baby barf somewhere? There’s just always a smell. No matter how much I clean I always can smell something. Yet I didn’t want to spray a bunch of chemicals around for my babies to inhale. After reading many reviews I decided to try this. I don’t know how it works but it does. I will admit the lemon scent was very much like citronella when I first opened it but the smell dissipated quickly and now everything just smells neutral. It’s been a little over a week and I ordered the huge refill size of the original scent. I’m putting it everywhere!

It is chemical free and removes odors without any overpowering fragrance. *Still waiting for this product and I checked that it was ok for unattended delivery like always. *Update: The product is excellent but the Japanese delivery service won’t leave it in front of our door as requested. Other items are left conveniently by our door as requested on my preference page but perhaps it’s because it is bulky which is not an excuse.

Has massively reduced cat urine odour
