Secret to Luxurious Home Scent Without Spending Money

Introduction

  • Luxurious home scent doesn't require expensive candles or obsessive cleaning.
  • Secret revealed by a housekeeper who works for billionaires.

Materials Needed

  • Plastic container (e.g., empty ice cream tub)
    • Important: Do not use glass (risk of cracking/exploding when salt absorbs moisture).
  • Cotton pad
    • Any cotton pad works (e.g., makeup remover pads).
  • Coarse salt
    • Use coarse salt, not table salt, to increase surface area for moisture absorption.
  • Baking soda
  • White vinegar
  • Favorite perfume or fabric softener
  • Whole cloves

Method

  1. Prepare Container
    • Place a cotton pad at the bottom of the plastic container.
    • Add two tablespoons of coarse salt on top of the cotton pad.
  2. Add Ingredients
    • Add one tablespoon of baking soda.
    • Add one tablespoon of white vinegar.
    • Observe fizzing (carbon dioxide released spreads salt particles in the air).
  3. Add Scent
    • Add three drops of your favorite perfume or a few drops of fabric softener.
    • Toss in five or six whole cloves for warm scent and insect repellent properties.

Important Tips

  • Do Not Seal Completely: Airflow is crucial.
    • Poke holes in the container lid using a heated fork.
  • Placement: Place in at least three spots around the house:
    • Inside closets (especially where blankets or winter clothes are stored).
    • Behind the toilet.
    • Inside the car under the seat.
    • Inside the HVAC system for wide scent distribution.

Benefits

  • Avoid spending money on air fresheners.
  • Prevents mold, humidity, and bad smells.
  • Natural insect repellent.

Conclusion

  • A practical way to maintain a fresh-smelling, luxurious home environment without spending money on commercial products.
  • Encouraged to try this method and share with others battling musty smells.
