Some things just fail to make scents...

Lysol and many other spray disinfectants have been around for years, but there has always been a question about labeling and the scents used. Clearly, the choice of scent is one of marketing and not based on a realistic expectation of what it really smells like. For example, two of the ones in the photo are "crisp linen", but one is "morning linen". What doe morning linen smell like? Well, these smell like chemistry and that is exactly how they are made. Most of the scents used in not only spray disinfectants, but room deodorizers are synthesized from petrochemicals. And, in my estimation they all smell like fabricated chemicals. The problem with these sprays is the fact that the labeling directions are simply misleading. There is a good read on labeling and misuse of Lysol and safe alternatives here. Meanwhile, read some of the "fragrances" offered by Lysol and be entertained by the trade named choices.  They all probably smell the same...
