bzz agent - consumer testing panel (aka lookie what i got to try out!)

I ended up getting the Fuji Apple & Cinnamon Spice diffuser (nice for fall) and the Cotton & Italian Mandarin mist - initially I thought the second scent would be an odd combination, but I ended up loving it! It doesn't smell like fabric softener mixed with oranges (which is what I thought it would smell like lol) but rather a mild clean scent with a pop.

ETA I got both at Target!

I got mine at Vons but had to pay 50 cents. They are really expensive there. I really like the pineapple mangosteen. It reminds me a little of Angel fragrance. It is not too strong in my room but it is extremely long and always has the window open since we don't have air conditioner in my room.

I'm still waiting on my coupons.  In the meantime, I'm hoping that the scents are actually good and not fake fruity/overwhelming like I've experienced in the past.  With my luck by the time I get my coupons, Target will only have "drunken pineapple heat wave explosion" left.  It's so rare that fruit scents smell nice like real fruit and the other scents don't smell too chemically.  I'm very curious about lavender juniper, so perhaps there will be a scent in this set that's suited to my preferences.

The lavender juniper smells a little like men's soap... but not so much that you walk in and wonder where the man with too much cologne is. I agree, the fake fruity smells are never appealing. I really like it. I actually like the cotton/mandarin one, too, but my spray is all funkified. :/

I was able to find both products at my Target.

I ended up getting the pineapple mangosteen because it was the only one that had the natural bamboo diffuser. I wanted the apple, but that one was white. It's in quite a large room, so I'll see how it goes. Target had the best selection by far. I did get the apple spray, as I really did want an apple scent for fall.

What the diffusers come in different colors?  Dang I missed that one!  I really want one of the Cotton and Italian Mandarin ones so I will look for the bamboo!

The Lavender Juniper one at my Target was also white. I figure if I like it I will buy refills in the apple and/or lavender.

I really like the fragrance of the fuji apple cardamom spice room spray. So far the oil diffuser in pineapple mangosteen is just all right. Also, someone mentioned it was too smelly but it's not that smelly in our family room. We'll see how I feel in a few weeks but when it fades totally I would like to try an apple refill.

I don't think the diffusers come in Cotton and Italian Mandarin, based on the pictures on the coupons..

 

[mermuse]

Is there a way to smell the scents before purchasing them?  Is there a scratch and sniff sticker? Are there matching easily sniffable candles as part of the collection?

 

[Jackieblue]

There were stickers, but I don't know how helpful they were. JMO.

 

[mermuse]

Sometimes those stickers are terribly off.  Thanks for the heads up.

I also did this.  At Target the total for both was $8.98.  The coupon value was $13.98, that's what they took off my total.  I bought one of each.

They didn't do this for me today at Target. They just covered the exact amount. I got the apple diffuser and the cotton spray. Not too impressed with spray. It kind off spit out. Had to use 2 hands to get it to come out right. It does smell nice though!

 

[CaptainSassy]

Whoo hoo! Strivectin shipped Monday!

 

[lovepink]

Waaahhhh!  That is the sound of my heart breaking and tears falling.  Guess I need to be more savvy in my research! Or be happy with the spray. thanks for the information!

Just bought the Glade stuff at Target. I purchased both simultaneously, but only one coupon worked--the cashier was kind of rude about it, and completed my transaction before I could take the second product out. When I went to CS to seen if the 8.99 coupon was valid, she just gave me $9 cash /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Got the spray in cotton/Italian orange, and the diffuser in lavender. I haven't tried the diffuser yet, but the cotton one smells great (not overly fake or anything)

 

[melonz]

It has been impossible for me to find the diffuser! I couldn't find it at Walmart, Walgreens, or Rite Aid. Argh! I got the cotton and italian mandarin spray though and it smells good =)

Target was the only store I was able to find both products.

Hopefully they'll expand the collection soon!

I used my free product coupons today. I also got 2 free refill kit coupons from Redbook this month, so I used those too. I got 1 diffuser kit (pineapple mangosteen) & 1 refill in apple/spice.. and 1 spray thing in apple/spice with a refill in pineapple/mangosteen.. and Target used the max amount so they took an additional $9 off my total purchase of other things.
