Aunt Fannie's Carpet Refresher & Deodorizer Powder, Multi-Purpose Carpet, Rug, and Upholstery Odor Eliminator for Homes with Cats and Dogs, Lavender Scent, 16 Oz (Pack of 1)

This worked surprisingly well. I live in a rental with old, musty wall to wall carpeting that absorbs every smell of food, dogs and moisture. I have used the Dirt Devil spot remover on it too many times to count with only slight improvement. I used Aunt Fannie's carpet refresher and almost instantly the stench went away - and I have a VERY sensitive nose, so that is saying a lot. The fragrance didn't stick around for too long, which I actually prefer, since strong smells give me a headache. Now it just smells like nothing. Even if the smell comes back, I'll be happy that I can just use the refresher again.

Sending this to all my friends smells amazing it just a truly great clean product!

I bought a 100% wool rug and it just stank (as they do) and I let it air out for a couple weeks hoping the smell would go away and it never did. Every time I’d walk through the door I’d be hit with the musty smell of my rug and it was making me annoyed coming home to that.This product did help remove the smell from the wool rug. I sprinkled it all over, there’s a little more than half the bottle left from an 8’ round rug. I left it over night and vacuumed when I got home from work the next day. When I first sprinkled it, the lavender smell was pretty strong and I was honestly worried it was going to stay like that. When I woke up the next morning, I couldn’t smell it at all. When I got home from work I still couldn’t smell it. I vacuumed it up and the powder came up well on the “low floor” setting on my cheap vacuum. It didn’t come up much with the thick carpet setting.I laid on the rug (I am a no house, lay on the floor in the living room sometimes kinda gal) to see if a) there were left over residue and b) if it smelled still. It did a fantastic job at removing smell, my nose literally has to be touching the carpet to smell any kind of wool must which is natural anyways for a new wool rug. And there was no residue (I’m brown and I wear all black most of the time, I would have noticed)My biggest complaint is that the bottle didn’t leak necessarily but there was definitely powder getting on the sink when I was removing the seal and what not. I didn’t care about the lasting lavender smell because that wasn’t my goal but if you’re looking for a scent that stays, this isn’t it. If you’re just trying to remove musty rug smell, this is great.

Gives a very pleasant smell I use it for my bed then I vacuum mattress feels fresh and works well

Idk, others I read said that the smell is amazing and lingers. I dumped a bunch on my rug and let it sit and literally couldn’t smell anything at all, before or after vacuuming. I also used over half the container on just my regular-sized living room rug. I’ll keep looking for something that works for me.

smells wonderful. Doesn’t have fake chemical smell that other carpet powders leave that give me headaches.

Had my doubts but smells amazing!

The powder is soooooo finely milled that the vacuum downstairs really pick it up in high carpets. It’s flies everywhere when you try to pour it around on the carpet. My Dyson wouldn’t even pick up the powder when it was all over the hallway floor (hardwood) from trying to put it on our carpet rooms. Also the lavender smells like straight up herb. Someone walked in my room and said it smelled like menthol.
