I bought an array of different shower steamers to include in an advent calendar or as stocking stuffers. This is the only one that was so strongly scented that even in the unopened plastic packaging, it made everything else in the delivery (including the box, which I had to yeet out the front door) smell strongly of perfume.

This isn’t just essential oils. This is… I’m not sure what this is. But it’s VERY VERY STRONG. I had to put it in two ziploc bags to contain the scent. I am having to air out all the other items I purchased in that order because they smell so strongly just from being in the box with these.

I absolutely will not be able to use these as I hoped to since they will make everything around them stink. I had hoped that I could wrap them individually in saran wrap but I don’t think there’s enough saran wrap in the world to contain the smell. I have no idea what I’m going to do with these because I’m legit afraid to remove the box from the double ziploc bags.

So I guess, if you like incredibly strongly scented products – think more like triple strength fabric softener than aromatherapy essential oils – this is the product for you, if you can find a place to store it safely.

Literally all the other shower steamers I’ve gotten have either been packaged well enough to contain their scent or they aren’t so explosively scented as these are.

Keep in mind, a hot shower multiplies scents. I often use aromatherapy essential oils in my shower simply by placing one to three drops directly under the water stream and have a delightfully minty shower. More than that and it’s overwhelming. So I’m not sure what using one of these will actually be like.

Hopefully I’ll find a friend with a reduced sense of smell to give this to. I guess if you had the current disease and it left you having a hard time smelling things, this may be just the product for you!

Otherwise, ehhhh. Beware of getting these as gifts; scent and chemical sensitivity is not uncommon these days and this would be noxious to them. Even without scent sensitivity, it’s kind of nasty to have one of your wrapped presents stinking up everything else under the tree.

Oh and I highly recommend, if you do buy this, to order it by itself and not order anything else days before or days after, so that it has to come in its own box and won’t be packed up with anything else. Even if you find it a pleasant smell, it’s not that great infused into everything else.

Buena opción para aromaterapia. Un par de las pastillas se rompieron un poco al sacarlas de su envoltura individual. Y un par de ellas se deshicieron más rápido que otras en el flujo del agua.

The scents delivered were not as described in the initial order, similar but not the same. The box was scratched, mild but non the less scratched as seen in photo. The photo in ad looks different from box delivered.

These shower steamers are AMAZING!!! I love them. Just put one in the stream of water and shower! 6 different scents.

I had ordered this as part of gift last year and was really interested in trying this pack for myself. I just finished the pack today. Each one is different, some are nicer than others. And the others are a complete miss for me. I probably would just stick to bath bombs over these though.

The box comes with a little pick to open all the wrapping on each individual tablet! You

Lavender: didn’t feel fully like lavender to me but I liked this one a lot, for some reason the dried herbs (or whatever they are) really stuck to the floor of my shower while others didn’t at all. I’d get this one again.

Menthol & Eucalyptus: way more menthol smelling than eucalyptus but it was one of the longer lasting tablets and smelt good! Didn’t expect to like it as much as I did. I would get this one again.

Grapefruit: I really did NOT like this one. The warm fruit scent was kind of annoying to breathe in. Wasn’t super strong but really not for me. Never again

Vanilla & sweet orange: I could smell this one the most in the box and was SO excited to use it because what I could smell of it was great. Got it going in the shower and was utterly disappointed. It wasn’t strong, I couldn’t really smell it over any of the soaps or shampoos I was using and they aren’t that strongly scented either. It also seemed slow to foam up too. Sadly wouldn’t get again.

Watermelon: I was surprised I liked this one! It wasn’t too strong, just enough to make the shower smell nice but it didn’t last long at all.

Peppermint: a very light scent and I think if it were stronger I might have liked it more. Didn’t last long at all. Probably would just prefer the menthol/eucalyptus over this.

Great long lasting smell. Love the variety of scents. Great product with a great price. You won’t be disappointed.

And they smell so good even before opening the box, since its a gift.
