So lately, I’ve been telling y’all about some amazing fragrances that I love having around my own home.

This recommendation is probably not one you would have seen coming, given the pricey/bourgie nature of my previous tips.

After all, good though it may smell, Pine-Sol of any kind is a far cry from $20-a-pop room spray and $10-a-bottle cleaner. But this Lavender Clean Pine-Sol leaves my whole house smelling absolutely glorious — not too floral, but not too astringent, either.

I got turned on to this magical stuff by my housekeeper, who instructed me to buy a vat of it next time I was at the store. The next time she came around to dust and mop, I was in heaven.

The scent is light, clean, and lavender-y. It’s Pine-Sol, so it won’t smell like the pricey, natural, farmer’s market crap you hippies are so ga-ga about. But it’s inexpensive, and it will get your whole house daggone clean in addition to smelling great.

You can find this stuff at your local grocery store or drugstore. You can get a big honkin’ 48 oz. bottle for around $7 in most places.
