It mentions a "fresh scent." Is it something you can actually smell" I HATE the smell of ALL scented cat litters, so I don't want it if I can smell it

No smell. I have a sensitive nose, as well. I don't smell anything different from unscented.

It has a noticeable plastic odor but not scented that I could tell. I returned mine because they were ridiculous. They had so many creases where the litter and urine got trapped that I could not scoop it. In addition, I have one cat that tries to dig to China and he pulled up the plastic making the creases worse. After the second day, I removed the whole thing and tossed it. I suppose this concept works if you never scoop and use non-clumping cat litter, but I cannot imagine people are that lazy. I decided to skip all liners and continue dumping and washing the pan once a month.

I buy non-scented, low-weight cat litter (Cat's Pride), then mix some of this into it. Smells like grass (not cheap perfume) and cats went right to it.

I can't even see dust with this litter, so I buy it for that reason. Several years ago I switched from Fresh Step because of the horrible dust! It got all over my furniture, so every time I dusted I smelled that nasty perfumed litter. In my 2 year experience with this litter, it is pratically dust free. I haven't seen any dust, at all, with this litter. It still tracks, but it's litter, it is going to track.

Yes, it is scented, but I personally don't notice it once I've rinsed it out. I'm not sure if you would find it acceptable without actually trying it.

I have virtually no smell with this system. One thing I noticed is if I take a peek at the pad then the smell seems to develop so I change the pads twice a week rather they need it or not. I have 3 boxes and 2 cats.

Yes. Mind you this thing is not some miracle worker. It's still up to you to scoop out the litter, the machine will only compensate so much. But if you are diligent about being a good cat owner and still doing your part on a regular basis this thing will get rid of the smell, and it's quiet so it won't scare them.

We use the "fresh scent" DampRid and, yes, it does have a slight odor but very light and not at all offensive. In fact, I don't even notice it when I am in the basement. I would imagine if you bought the lavender scent it would be stronger. Mu husband dislikes strong scented items (candles, sachets, etc.) and has no problem with the "fresh scent."

It has a nice clean aroma. It doesn't take over a whole room... But if the cats steps/scratches it, the scent is activated/released.

I've tried only the red package. We have five cats and, every time someone comes over, I ask if they can smell cats. The answer is always "no."I sift out four litter boxes twice a day, getting about two and a half pounds of poop/pee every 24 hours.

Hi, Yes it does have an odor but it dissipates shortly after it is applied so only animals will notice it. Good luck with the cat!

The odor has cut down a lot, and now that I also sprinkle Tidy Cats litter box deodorizer on top of the litter there is no smell at all unless it's an especially stinky one. I also like the looks of this "washroom" and my cat was easy to train to use it. I showed it to him, then left the door open for a week or two and he was ok with it.

The washing solution has a fresh scent. I have very rarely noticed any left over feces or a smell once it starts cleaning. If your cat has diarrhea that might pose a different problem. However normal bowel movements are removed easily. I have mine set to cat activation and it works wonderfully.

It does not have a bad smell and it is not bothersome. It is hard to pinpoint the smell but it smells fresh to meand I would strongly recommend it. I have it in my house with no problem but I have no pets to be concernedwith.

I used the cat attraction stuff. You just sprinkle it in the litter. You could also put litter from a dirty litter box in to make it smell like a litter box. The cat attract works like a charm though

To me, the smell was very faint. I turned mine on high for the first 3 days. I don't smell anything anymore. Great unit, we have lots of cats and clean the prefilter every week. Unit works very well removing cat dander.

Yes it does. The refills may seem . . . and actually are! . . . a little expensive, but they are well worth the price! I live in a small apartment, and have to keep the litter box in my bedroom. As long as I clean the box every couple of days, there is absolutely no smell. The cat genie only has to be emptied every week or so (I only have one cat), but there is no smell from it! I'm so glad I bought it and only wish I'd gotten it sooner!

Hi! It has Calcium Carbonate (a natural base), malador counteractant. I have been using this in the litter boxes for over a year. I have tried most of the others and found them perfumy. However, this has a clean smell when you first apply it, but then it dissipates. There is no perfume odor, nor does the odor linger. However, this does keep any odor down. I have four cats and two litter boxes and would not buy anything else. I do clean the litter boxes at least every other day and sprinkle this on the top of the clean litter. As a matter of fact, I am ordering another case today. Good luck!
