Default Smelly but nice MMMMMM

When walking through the village, I notice a beautiful lemon smell coming from the Spanish houses

.Obviously the fronts have been washed down with a certain product which is has a lovely fresh clean fragrance. which seems to for last ages.

I have tried to buy some cleaning products to clean my front but have not found the right product yet .
I now have a cupboard full.

I also realise what a sad person I have become looking for cleaning products on line
Any suggestions of what product is used????????

If none of the above work, or happen, there´s an Estrella bleach which has a sort of citrussy smell - greeny yellow bottle.

I've just been under the sink to see what we use

Look for a floor cleaner made by Asevi called "super perfumado fregasuelos concentrado"

You can buy either Naranja or limon.

we also wondered what the Spanish ladies used that smelled so nice, so we asked

My wife buys it from a small local shop, we have never seen it in the large supermarkets though (mercadona etc.

I've never seen it, but will keep an eye out because the one it sounds like is a UK product Zoflora, which I've known since childhood & now they do a citrus version which is simply brilliant. BUT very expensive so Asevi could be the answer!

I use to use Zoflora in the UK - wasn't it always lemony?

No, yonks ago, my mum used to use it and there were two or three fragrances, lavender & bouquet being the two I remember. I've never previously seen the citrus one & spotted it in Iceland about six months ago - the house has never smelled nicer! However as I said it's not cheap so if this Asevi stuff is also concentrated, it might be worth a look. On the good/flip side, you only need a splosh of Zoflora to get a mega waft of 'smell'!

it is really concentrated isn't it?


I don't remeber a lavender one though

Asevi do an orange smelly one, too it seems

Now I know why all the lemons sold in supermarkets have the zest nicked off of them and then polished to cover it up.
