The secret? Fabric softener! When used the right way, it can make your vacuum release a light, refreshing fragrance that lingers throughout your home. Here’s the simple method:
Mix a small amount of liquid fabric softener with water, dip a cotton pad or tissue into the mixture, squeeze out any excess liquid, and place it near the vacuum’s dust bag or canister but not directly on the filter.

As the warm air circulates through your vacuum, it gently spreads that clean, fresh scent into every room. This not only fills your space with the smell of freshly washed clothes but also helps reduce static and neutralize lingering odors trapped inside your vacuum. Replace the scented pad every couple of weeks, and you’ll instantly notice the difference.
A simple, budget-friendly tip that keeps your home smelling like it’s just been through laundry day every time you clean.
