It has been a year since we moved
in to Mumbai. While all my friends were excited for me, I was full of anxiety. The
reason being, the met department had predicted arrival of monsoons a week after
we landed.
Now we all have heard about the
famous Mumbai monsoons that operate at their own whims and fancies. Since the
predicted day was a week away, I was optimistic I would do the basic set up in
the house by then. However, if everything goes as planned, we wouldn’t crib so
much about games destiny plays. Monsoons decided to knock on the door before
our Packers and movers and I was as frightened as a student who lands up at the
exam hall without the admit card!
Nevertheless, we did the basic
set up once the stuff arrived. Just when I thought things weren’t as bad as I
thought, another ugly side of monsoons surprised me. There were strange smells
in the house. My cupboard smelt of dampness with my black clothes decorated by white
mildew; the trash in the dustbin made its presence felt each morning; the shoe
rack shouted of Mr. Hubby’s smelly socks; the laundry bag too troubled me with
the smell of damp clothes. Like all hubbies, Mr. Hubby too throws his damp towel
on the bed and one day it got me so agitated that I rudely ask him to dump the
towel on his side of the bed, for the bed too had that characteristic damp
smell!
Since we were living away from
our families, we looked forward to romantic evenings and lazy weekends.
However, the olfactory torture was eating away our patience and spoiling our “Us”
time. Instead of spending romantic moments, we woke up each day to the frustration
of non stop rains and unpleasant smells floating into our house and often ended
up venting out our frustration at each other.
Anger isn’t the solution to all
problems, I soon realised and something had to be done to get rid of the smelly
torture. And thus began my R&D – incense sticks, flowers, scented candles –
I tried them all. However, they would give us temporary relief and the smells
would return to haunt us. Frustrated I was almost losing my patience till I
discovered AmbiPur at the local hypermarket one day. Expecting nothing more
than another room freshener, I picked up a bottle however, the bottle read, “Ambi
Pur Air Effects doesn’t just cover odours, it completely removes them!” Now
here was the catch and I decided to give it a try.
Like a child with a new toy, I followed
the instructions and used AmbiPur Air effects on all the affected areas. There was
still time for Mr. Hubby to return from office. I thought the smell would
return by then and proceeded to the kitchen thinking I would use AmbiPur again
before Mr. Hubby arrived. However, I got engrossed in my cooking and by the
time the doorbell rang, I had completely forgotten about another dose of Ambi
Pur.
As Mr. Hubby entered the house,
he was pleasantly surprised, “Wow! The house smells lovely today! Have you
tried some new incense sticks?” He asked.
“No No incense wouldn’t have
lasted that long…it’s the new AmbiPur Air effects.” And I explained to him how Ambi
Pur Air Effects doesn’t just cover odours, it completely removes them. We both
enjoyed a lovely romantic dinner at home that day. The smells were nowhere to
play the spoilsport, thanks to AmbiPur.
AmbiPur has become a permanent
feature of our house now. As I gear up for another round of Mumbai monsoons, I
know there’s no need to worry about the smells, for thanks to AmbiPur…I am all
smiles!
There are several ways of making your home odour free. Flowers, incense sticks etc. However, we all know all of these options just last for a short time until you and your guests can pick up that horrid scent again. Ambi Pur Air Effects versus Regular Aerosols does not just help by covering the odours it helps remove them completely!
