How potent is the smell from this? If I left the bottle open would it make a room smell like garlic?

In therms of odor, there's a smell but it's nowhere near that strong enough to make a room smell.

It smells like garlic and yes if you leave the bottle open the whole room will eventually smell like garlic.

I don't believe so. It has a mild fragrance like the gentle smell of a plate of pasta with some garlic salt or oil mixed in.

It does have a smell to it but it's not overpowering. As for the kitchen I suppose just as long as your not spraying all your pots and pans and utensils with it. Use a small handheld spray bottle in the house. And make sure the area is well ventilated and fluffy is secured in another room so he isn't licking it up. Once it drys you wi be fine. But remember I said this stuff doesn't kill on contact. It works by attacking the bug/insect nervous system and respatory system and killing it over time. It does work but you have to give it a day to three days to see its effects. And prolong of this and you will reap the benefits.

No, I grind garlic, rosemary, etc. with no problem of after odor. However it is recommended that you put it in the dishwasher at times to sterilize it. This works great, and was suggested by the manufacturer to do so when I called them about the same question. Enjoy.

No it doesn't smell that strong. I don't notice any odor at all in the closet & really none on what's stored in the bag. I noticed odor only when I first opened it.

It's pretty strong when you first apply it but after several hours I can't really smell it unless I actually smell my wrist. However, I still like it and it's small enough to fit just about anywhere and you can reapply mid-day. I do like the scent.

There are 2 different kind of DMSO. One that smells like garlic, and one that is odorless. The taste is still quite strong, but with this product there is no smell at all.

I have only used the spray and it is not a bad or potent smell. I do close off a door for my animals because their smelling capacity is a lot smaller than ours. Overall I have not had a problem with inhaling any fumes.

Yes. I would recommend rinsing it between cloves/loads though because if you don't, some of the skin from the previous load can get in there. I agree that there is a small amount of garlic waste; about 10-15%

Hi Josette. I have not had a problem with the garlic tasting the same when I open it and the bottom of the jar. It is so good. Before purchasing it from Amazon, I was running from store to store and no one carried it and I was frantic because it is so good. I hope this answers your question.

Hi Tio, No we have not had anyone else have this experience. If your smelling the product in the bottle, because its contained in a small area, the odor is a bit medicinal, but once you apply it to your face the odor is not noticeable at all. I hope this answers your questions. If you want to discuss in greater detail please feel free to call; 1-888-633-0536

I have been buying this product for about 6months now and it does have a little smell to it, but not overwhelming. If it's quite noticeable I would suggest sending it back. It shouldn't be super strong. I notice it when I have my nose close to the container, but otherwise its faint. Good luck!

Fragrance seems to last very long time. I misplaced one bottle for a year and when I reopened it, the odor was still strong. I use it for breathing difficulties and that bottle worked just fine. Hope that answers your question.

I've sprayed it in a cellar and left it for a day. When I brought it back into my closet, I could smell it for perhaps another day. Same using it outdoors...a day or so of residual odor. I don't think the smell is awful, just odd.

I really don't know as I gave it as a gift. But if it does leave an odor of garlic (which it probably will), rub fresh lemon, or pour lemon juice in it and rub it around the mortal. It works with anything that is porous and has garlic or onion odors left in them including your hands.

I just checked my bottle of 800 which I opened two moths ago. There is a smell, but it's not that strong. Are you sensitive to some odours? Maybe you should contact the provider.

No, not anymore. Years ago it made you smell like garlic. But that was when we had to buy it from a vet because it was illegal to buy it any other way.

Honestly, the smell is strong and not pleasant. We put the traps under the sinks and behind the toilets. When the smell became very strong a couple hours later, we assumed it would go away in a day or two (as indicated in another response). However, the smell appears to have gotten stronger. I could smell it from rooms away. I cannot verify if these traps are effective, because we threw them away after getting headaches and sleepless nights due to the smell.
