Febreze Fabric Refresher

I received this Febreze Fabric Extra Strength Refresher from BzzAgent to test and provide my honest feedback.

First off, I really liked how powerful this spray was in terms of the product being sprayed from the trigger.  It was a strong spray that covered a wide area.

 I tried this spray on my bedding (the comforter hadn't been washed for a while) and it smelled so fresh and clean after.  I could smell the fresh fragrance a few hours later but after that, the fresh scent was gone.

I tried this spray on some smelly shoes.  I sprayed it on 3 separate occasions prior to wearing them and unfortunately this spray did not cover up the odour.  They still smelled bad!  I was disappointed as I really wanted to freshen up these shoes.

I also tried this spray on a sofa that my dad sits on with his barn clothes.  The sofa smelled great immediately after spraying but again the fresh, clean scent did not last and the odour I was trying to cover up, returned.

I was overall disappointed that this spray did not cover up odours for a long period of time.  It seems to work best on lightly odoured items not heavy duty smelly items.   And even at that, the fresh clean scent will not last.

Will I purchase this after finishing this bottle?  Probably not.  It didn't work the way I wanted it to and for this reason I don't feel it would be a good use of my money.

I received this product free of charge from BzzAgent for review purposes. #GotItFree

Happy Easter!

This is an Easter cake I made for our family get-together today.  It is a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting.  Hope you are enjoying spending time with family this Easter weekend.  For my family, it is a weekend to remember how Jesus bore our sins on the cross.  But the story doesn't end there!  Today he rose from the grave!  If he didn't rise from the grave and there was no resurrection, what hope would we have?  He is risen.  He is risen, indeed! 

As the late Billy Graham said in his devotional, The Hope of Resurrection:
 "There is hope that mistakes and sins can be forgiven. There is hope that we can have joy, peace, assurance, and security in the midst of the despair of this age. There is hope that Christ is coming soon—this is what is called in Scripture “the blessed hope.” There is hope that there will come some day a new heaven and a new earth, and that the Kingdom of God will reign and triumph. Our hope is not in our own ability, or in our goodness, or in our physical strength. Our hope is instilled in us by the resurrection of Christ".
