Frebreze Commercial
Fabric "refresheners" have been on the market for quite a while, but I'm not sure why.
Oh, I get the concept--something smells bad, so bombard it with obnoxiously strong fragrance and the problem disappears. But I think that if something stinks it's because it's dirty, so the only solution that makes sense to me is to clean it or ignore it.
At the end of the day, "mom" is making the floor where her children play smell good. But at what cost? When the kids wake up they will still be playing on a soiled carpet AND they will also be rolling around in some stinky chemical residue. The better option would be to just let the kids play on a funky rug. Studies have shown that our obsession with cleanliness has led to weakened immune systems. We humans need to be exposed to pathogens in order to build up our defense mechanisms.
