Glade’s New Fragrance Collection

In the course of my work, I have the opportunity to try a lot of really incredible, really unique products. Every time the FedEx man comes to the door, I think, “Yay! I get to try something new.” 

I’ve learned that price and ease of availability don’t have that much to do with quality or how easy something is to use and enjoy. When the Glade lady contacted me with, “May I delight you with a sample?” (Easily my favorite work request ever) I said, “Yes, please.” 

She sent me a Soy Candle and a Reed Diffuser set in the Sheer White Cotton fragrance. I love soy candles because they are better for you. They are not made of any petroleum products, so they don’t give off harmful fumes. Soy candles don’t leave a sooty film on anything, just nice clean-burning candle scent.

I’ve burned the candle for hours and it’s hardly gone down at all. I have 3 teenagers, 1 preteen, and a cat. If you walked into my house, all you’d smell is Sheer White Cotton freshness. I put the scented Reed Diffuser next to were I sit to do my work, in my living room. Every once in awhile, I take the reeds out, flip them over. I love walking by and catching a whiff.

In addition to smelling great, these products are inexpensive, so you can treat yourself to something special without going broke. The candle retails for about $9.99 for the 10 ounce size and the Reed Diffuser set is about $9.49. You can get both products at your local drugstore for about what it would usually cost for one scented candle or reed diffuser of another brand. I know that as soon as my candle is gone, I’m definitely going out to get another. Maybe this time I’ll try the Currants & Acai or possibly the MacIntosh Apple… so many choices….
