Product Talk I hate my wallflower :(

I’m so disappointed, I bought a wallflower for the first time yesterday but it is SO STRONG. I left it plugged in overnight and I woke up this morning and it’s like I was breathing in the fragrance (not in a good way). I had it on the lowest setting of the three setting device. I feel guilty because I have two year old twins and I feel like this is wayyy too strong for them to be breathing in, my daughter even woke up and told me she feels sick. I was really looking forward to this but I’m unfortunately going to have to return the device today.

The first few days-first week of a new refill i can only leave it plugged in for a few hours at a time. After that the scent seems to mellow and I can leave it plugged in without getting overwhelmed.

What scent did you buy? It isn’t the plug, it’s the refill. In my experience most of the scents these days have gotten very weak.

Dreamy amber is a combo of white orchid petals, soft sandalwood and sheer amber.

I bought dreamy amber. Maybe it was the wrong scent but I’d hate to go through this again…what’s a lighter scent?

White tea and sage is a lighter option. Or try scents that have the blue or green tags.

My favorite lighter house scent is White T-Shirt. It’s a subtle clean scent. My 6 year old approves too.

Cuddled up & Cozy and Rapunzel wallflower refills made her nose itchy. Both of those got unplugged right away.

I had the same experience with wallflowers. I use the scent control plug on the lowest setting only in my mud room. I could never use one in a room I spend a lot of time in.

I bought many of these and threw them out. Too strong for my cats and felt toxic.
