How long does the awful smell last?

Wish I had a exact time when the smell is gone but it shouldn`t be too long because I haven`t noticed the smell anymore. I think it might have been less then a week. But you could always try putting it in the washing machine or fill the tub with a little laundry soap swish it around & let it soak for awhile , maybe that would help. Sorry if this doesn`t answer your question

Well, I must say that I didn't pay much attention to it so I don't really know. I have two bathrooms and maybe that's why. Perhaps you could spray a bit of room spray on it. I have a wax warmer in my bathrooms that I keep going at all times and it seemed to override that smell. - Hope that helps

Mine came with the horrible smell as well. I put it outside to air out for a few days and I put it next to a bag of baking soda to absorb the odor too. After a few months, I've noticed that the smell is no longer present.

It takes me around 3-5 soak/wait/rinse times to get an older stain out. Depending on how old the stain is. Not sure about the smell part but have had no issues.

yes ours does smell pretty bad but you can only smell it if you put it up to your nose otherwise you can't smell it. If the product smell bothers yout I think putting it outside to air out for a week would help.

Not long. They only really smell right when taking them out of the package. They do not let off a smell once set up. Although we put ours in sconces around a large room so it could be different if grouped together in a small space.

I think it can last up to two years. If you don't smell the cedar, you can sandpaper it so it will release again the smell.

My pillow absolutely REEKED when I first received it. Seemed way worse then most people are reporting, maybe it was a fresh batch of foam or something but the smell lingered for more than a few days. Even six months later if I stick my face in it I can smell it. That being said I'm sure sticking it in the wash would help rid the pillow of its chemical stench right away and after the smell was gone/tolerable I really liked the pillow.

It doesn't last long at all. I'm very allergic to chemical smells myself & it went away quickly.

We haven't used an entire 8 oz bottle yet, but at the current rate it should last about 8 months. If you're asking how long the good smell lasts per use, it stays around until you flush.

Ginger is right. It takes about a week for the smell to go away. Buy outdoors you may not notice it.

Not sure what bad smell others are talking about, I have not had that experience. Both my pillows are fine, and have no smell, however, when I want an oder out of something I put it in a garbage bag with a bunch of baking soda poured in it and leave it for 3 days, then check it. If I wash something I use vinegar to take smells out. And, yes I've washed down before, the trick is getting it dry. I hang it on the line all day, and it must be a fairly hot day or it won't dry.

Depends how thick you put it on. Put it on thin it takes about 1/2 hr to an hour. I didn't notice the smell much after it dried.

The odor slowly fades away. We installed it in an enclosed compartment and the odor was gone within 30 days.

I let it hang till it looks like it's going to explode at the seams it's so full. I do not however like the smell that comes with 40,000 dead, rotting flies so at that point it goes in the dumpster. There is a smell when you put a fresh one out but it smells 1,000 times worse when it's reaching max capacity with rotting dead ones in the mix. They'll even lay eggs on their dead buddies so you'll have maggots in there too. I toss around 30 days.

I use them until I can no longer smell the cedar smell. This is usually about 3 months, which is one season. Sometimes I'll let them go for 6 months, though. But never longer.

The smell is very very slight especially compared to others like icy hot and bengay. It's a little bit of a minty smell but it does go away in once it dries (which isn't very long). I believe it can be used every 3 hours but I have not used it in that frequency before.
