Just what is the smell of clean to you??

actually,i don't like any scent unless the scent of the sunshine...or perhaps i can accept very weak scent.

Mine was started by my Grandma, her house always smelt of Pine-sol and I just love that smell. So to me it's Pine-sol. But I do have to agree with your mother, when I smell bleach I know it's clean, but it irritates my sinuses something terrible.

I like soap powders that have a nice smell ,I also like to smell a nice aftershave on a man especially my hubby and sons , I like to the smell of deoderant or body spray after I have a shower in the morning , I used to grow night scented stock under my window and I loved to smell that after a shower of rain, looks like I likwe a nice smell to everything lol xx

Well clean to me is still good old fashioned Bleach- Clorox of course- I use Tide with Febreze in my laundry and that is clean to me- but a clean house is bleach!

I love the smell of the orange or lemon scented cleaners as well, but I also like the Pine-sol "Sparkling Wave" then there's Mistolen's Rocio scent..don't quite sure know what rocio is but it smells great!

For me the smell of clean is the amazing smell of girls hair. I'm a girl, but i love the smell of the smell of shampoo.

Deb, I have a load to hang right now. I get pretty tired of all the chemically generated scents that are not real. I like the smell of real oranges and lemons. I buy a product called Simple Green that smells good to me and is an all purpose cleaner. I have too many friends who are allergic to fragrance to really appreciate it in all of my cleaners.

For cleaning the house like mopping, Lysol and for laundry, Clothes taken off the line after hanging to dry in the wind and sun. I just had my clothesline reinstalled after it was down for two years due to remodeling. I am delighting in the sweet air and sun dried clothing smell. Nothing like it ever.

for me lemon or orange scent is great, summer sun scent is very nice, but guess I am lazy to do it...sometimes I have whites outside on the sun but just to make it fresh, not dry....

I'm always drawn to lemon or orange-scenter, often associating it with clean-smelling, followed by bleach--not as pleasant, but registers as "clean." I never was able to think of anything pine-scenterd as clean for some reason, even though I've certainly had my fair share of pine sol-filled moments lol. Perhaps because I find lemon and orange as pleasant, comforting smells maybe. As far the other well-known scents out there, such as ones you usually see for air-freshing products, never did associate those with clean, though they always gave other pleasant reactions. lol I have only had laundry out to dry once, and it sure didn't smell clean haha. I guess direct sunlight helps a bit, ya think? Yup. Never again..

Growing up, I associate the smell of clean by Pinesol. That is what my mom used most often to clean. I always associated it with clean and fresh air. These days the smell of clean to me is really up in the air. My place smells like smoke from my above neighbors and the beside neighbor. Sometimes it even smells like the food the above neighbors are cooking. But whenever I smell a nice perfume or cologne, I think clean. Maybe that is because whenever I smell too much smoke, I smell the sleeve of my shirt just to remind myself there are other smells than smell, well, good. : )

still can t beat plain old bleach for germ killing

There is absolutely nothing better smelling than laundry that has been put outside to dry in my opinion!!!I just love sleeping on sheets that have that fresh air scent. Take care my friend

There is too much pollution in California for me to hang my laundry outside.LOL I like the smell of lemons and pine sol. I hate the smell of bleach.

Each of my client's use different cleansers to clean their homes. Some use pine, lemon, orange, or vinegar. I can say the cleanest scent I have found is one that is the lemon scented product. It isn't overpowering. My all time favorite scent is the same as yours. This is escpecially true when you hang the clothes on a crisp spring day.

I think bleach is a clean smell at least I am like you and remember mom useing these items and the house smelling all clean and fresh, my mom swore by tide detergent but now that Im grown I never use it. I dont like pine to overpowering, i think I like lavender the best.
