Excellent product! Really works., November 14, 2008
This review is from: Poo-Pourri X-Large 8 oz bottle Original Scent bathroom toilet air freshner odor masking spray (Baby Product)
We bought this to use at the office and it really works. The scent is light and fresh, not heavy or cloying. We have 23 women in an office with one restroom so there are ample opportunities for unpleasant after-effects and my office is right across the hallway from the bathroom! Using matches or that orange spray just wasn't getting it done. You pay a price for this stuff but it does work, and what price is too much for relief from leaving a malodorous environment for the next person to walk into? It would make a great hostess gift too. I'm reordering and getting two for the men's room!

Beware - while this product is great, its packaging may not be., January 10, 2010
This review is from: Poo-Pourri X-Large 8 oz bottle Original Scent bathroom toilet air freshner odor masking spray (Baby Product)
I find Poo-Pourri to work impressively well...that is, when I can actually use the bottle it came in to spray it. I've bought two of these for myself, and within a few weeks after first using each bottle's spray nozzle has broken such that they no longer spray but instead pathetically eject a steady stream of liquid. This is not only inefficient (wasted expensive product) but much less effective as well, as the entirety of the water in the bowl is not covered.
I even bought one for a friend as a gift before mine broke, and he reports the same failure after a similar amount of time. I am impressed by what this product can do, but until the packaging quality improves, a a repeat buyer I will not be.

Good value even with the S/h - A product my home cannot live without!, December 11, 2009
This review is from: Poo-Pourri X-Large 8 oz bottle Original Scent bathroom toilet air freshner odor masking spray (Baby Product)
We used to buy 3 of the 4 ounce size at a local gift shop for $19.95 each which comes to $59.85. I ordered this large bottle plus a 4 ounce bottle of the No. 2 scent (which I prefer) and it came to 40.42 - a savings of 19.43 which is almost like getting the 4 ounce bottle for free! That's a good value when you consider how important this stuff can become to the peaceful coexistence of man and woman!
This product does what it says it does and it will prevent bathroom odor rather than covering it up. The formula is some kind of combination of starches and oils that when sprayed on the surface of your toilet water, forms a protective film that traps odor and gases. There are other products out there claiming to the same with a squeeze bottle but they come in mint or menthol scents and the squeeze bottles aren't as easy to use as this product which has a measured spray. I've tried a few and I much prefer the Poo Pourri because it doesn't have a perfume scent. instead, the original is a citrus scent leaning towards the mandarin orange side of things. I like the No.2 scent better because it has more of a Bergamot scent. Bergamot is that citrus fruit whose peel is used to scent Earl Grey tea.
The product suggest 4 to 6 sprays but we use between 6 and 7 sprays for best results. Anything more than that would be overpowering. Remember, you only want to eliminate odor, you don't want to use the stuff as a room spray! So, 6 to 7 spray onto the water and you're good to go, literally. Anything UNDER the water will have it's odor locked. That's an important little fact. Remember it when using the product. Also, if you have a bathroom "reader", ask them to flush ASAP and then continue with their "reading" for best results. The spray won't trap odor as effectively if your "reader" waits until he's finished his book, magazine or newspaper to flush.
This product might seem like a funny joke but I can tell you from experience that it makes sharing a bathroom a lot easier. Once you've had it on hand for a while, you won't want to be without it.
