**Tired of synthetic almond oil cleansers and air fresheners.**

This says it all. My work has been using this and it is making me ill. I think it is supposed to smell natural, but: yuck.

Everything has the same sickly smell. It’s synthetic and overpowering.

Get some of those febreze vent-clip fresheners from the store and clip them on an AC vent or fan. Might be a nice change, or look for J.R. Watkins room freshener spray. I get headaches and feel sick from people’s cologne or perfume really easily and the ones I mentioned above don’t bother me at all. Worth a shot. Couple bucks.
