And their new collection of fruity fragrances was sure to be a hit when it hit The Range shelves for just £1.
The fragrance-focused home and lifestyle brand has released three brand new all-purpose cleaners with delicious new scents.
It features the Watermelon fragrance, a fruity floral scent that pampers the senses; a Pineapple aroma, which has a refreshing and lively scent; and a Strawberry scent, which is soft and sweet and makes your mouth water.
I was lucky enough to be one of the first to try out the new range and decided to put it to the test.
I decided to use them to try out some anti-virus cleaning tricks and see how long the delicious smells would linger in the kitchen.
I used one of the scents to clean the stovetop and sink to see how well it worked on steel and chrome surfaces.
The other two were used to test the smelly trash can trick and the radiator trick.
Kitchen Surfaces – Watermelon
First I used the watermelon scented cleaner to clean the countertop and the stove top, rind and faucets.
This was by far my favorite of the three tropical scents. I loved the fresh, fruity notes combined with the crunchy cucumber.
Not only did it smell great, it worked fantastically, effortlessly removing all the dirt and grease from the hob.
It also has a streak-free finish, so you don’t have to go over the same spots over and over again. Just wipe it off with a microfiber cloth and it’ll shine again!
The cleaner is also great for removing stubborn sink odors that tend to linger.
After taking down the drain rack, I wiped down the inside of the sink and poured some of the mixture down the drain before wiping and rinsing it off.
Then I tried it on the taps and chrome finishes and they too were shiny and streak free.
For general cleaning, Fabulosa’s multi-purpose spray is perfect – and for just £1!
I used it in the afternoon and could still smell the incredible watermelon scent next day after i got home from workuntil the evening.
So the scenes last at least 27 hours.

Radiator Trick – Pineapple
I couldn’t wait to try the Pineapple scent, with its fresh citrus zest it seemed perfect for the kitchen.
I decided to use it to try out the radiator trick: this innovative trick is designed to ensure that the fresh scent lingers throughout the room for a long time.
All you need to do is spray the cleaner onto a microfiber cloth and then wipe down the dusty radiators.
With this technique, the radiator spreads the fresh scent of the solution throughout the house while the heating is on, long after cleaning is complete.
Although it was so to leave the radiators smelled wonderful, but that didn’t last long.
I noticed that the trick didn’t work so well and the smell didn’t spread through the room when the heating was on.
The odor lingered only very faintly on materials that were near the radiator at the time and disappeared from the radiator itself within an hour.
But after taking it off it looked radiant and crystal clear!
MOP IT
CLEANING fans rave about a “genius”
Vernon Ronde regularly shares his best tips and products on Instagram to keep your home sparkling. He also revealed the ultimate trick to get the most out of your cleaning product: making his own reusable mop pads.
A pack of 12 Flash Speed Mop replacement cloths costs £3.50 in supermarkets including Tesco and Morrisons.
Speaking about his “life-saving” cleaning trick, Vernon said: “Girls, I wish someone had told me about this…
“I thought to myself, all those disposable products I use are filling up my trash bins? So I came up with this Fabulosa hack.
“I chose the multi-purpose cleaner from Fabulosa in the Fizzy Bottles scent, because it smells wonderful and does wonders for cleaning and making it shine.”
To recreate Vernon’s clever trick, take an empty 1-liter jar and add 500 ml of water and 125 ml of disinfectant.
Place the mixture in a jar and add the multipack of microfiber cloths. Let the cloths soak for at least 30 minutes before using.
You’ll be left with a fully saturated stack of reusable cloths that you can use around the house for general cleaning tasks, or attach to the bottom of your mop as a homemade mop pad.
Trash Can Smelling Trick – Strawberry
Fans of Mrs. Hinch will already be familiar with this clever trick to get rid of nasty smells in the house.
Throwing food scraps in the trash can sometimes leave a horrible, lingering smell in your kitchen.
This is usually because bacteria build up in the garbage bag. In that case, it is a good idea to use the all-purpose cleaner from Fabulosa.
I use the strawberry scented cleaner for this. All you have to do is spray a little on a paper towel and place it in the bottom of the bin before putting the garbage bag in it.
To be on the safe side, I also sprayed the outside of the garbage bag before putting it in.
This leaves it smelling clean and fresh (and in my case, with the strawberry scent, sweet and fruity), while removing food odors.
I found this to be a great trick to get rid of unwanted garbage smells in the kitchen. Every time I went to use the bin I was greeted by the delicious smell of fresh strawberries.
The smell lasted for about three days, or 72 hours, which is usually the time I have to empty the trash anyway.
And even when I emptied the trash, the full bag of trash didn’t stink because I changed the trash bags.
It also worked great for keeping the inside of the bin clean Nice and clean too, without having to scrub it all!
