Close to Nature with Blossoms and Breeze; Ambi Pur

The pretty white and pink 275 gm can freshly fetched from its package sat eagerly on our glass table enticing me with its name, "Blossoms and Breeze" to put it to use. The little 5.5 ml pack parked beside it with the same name wasn't far behind either. These were Ambi pur air effects and Ambi pur set n refresh (both blossoms and breeze) respectively. It was now no longer a reviewing task for me, it was about getting connected to the fragrances that rested inside geared up to mingle with the air.

Ambi Pur Air Effects-  Blossoms and Breeze

I first pick was the can first; the Ambi pur air effects- Blossoms and Breeze. I held it pulled the trigger back and as instructed and shown in the photos I sprayed the fragrance in my living room in a sweeping motion. The moment the aroma fanned out in the room I felt like I was transformed to a place with an unpolluted environment and natural springs all over. I was close to Mother Nature. It just made me feel alive with its subtle fresh scent and I realized it had eradicated malodors as well.

Ambi Pur Set n Refresh- blossoms and Breeze

Quickly striding towards the table I released the Ambi pur set n refresh- Blossoms and Breeze from its pack and set to my bed room. As instructed I activated it with its cartridge inside carrying the perfumed oil. Designed intelligently the product with its scented oil eliminates malodors continuously and releases a misty aroma in the room.
The similar feeling cam back to me, I closed my eyes and felt the fragrance swayed me to a meadow full of blossoms.

I had stumbled upon fresheners that were more than the other fresheners. Ambi pur had Fresheners that along with spreading Freshness it created happiness by snatching away the un-wanted odors that linger around home.

Reliving Memories!

When Ambi Pur India presented us with a plot to tell them about the nostalgic memories we associate with different smells or fragrances in our home, I was already floating in those fragrances that always lead me to revisit the memories associate with them.

Some memories resurface with fragrances around us at home; memories that leave you with different emotions related to those moments.
And being no exception to this it happens to me quite often.

One of my nostalgic moments that come alive is when jasmine flowers are brought to offer to gods, at home. It takes me back to my childhood days at my nanihaal. I used to be with my naani most of the time especially in the mornings. Fascinatingly glued to her errands related to her daily poojas, I used to help her with my small hands in plucking flowers from the courtyard garden, something I was deprived from in Mumbai. My favorite tree was the one which had these tiny pretty white flowers called jasmine. The pleasure of plucking the flowers and collecting them in a beautiful metal basket meant for the floras only used to increase many folds along with the fragrance of jasmine that enveloped me. 

Hopping and jumping, I would follow naani into the room, which was our constructed for the gods to dwell, and the bliss would continue and increase, as I would get to decorate the temple with the flowers and then doll up the beautiful idols of gods. This used to be our routine every morning and these memories got etched so deeply within me that the jasmine fragrance at home makes me nostalgic and a smile creeps on my face and I look up knowing naani must be watching me from wherever she is and would be feeling reminiscent to those memoirs. 

Folding Hand-fan 

Another delicate scent that takes me back to a nostalgic period is that of the sandalwood paste that mom churns by rubbing the sandalwood stick on a peach hued stone. My only visit to Mysore palace resurrects whenever I smell the sandalwood paste. The magnificent palace is a neighbor to various vendors sitting outside the palace compound selling products shooting high claims about the products having been made from original sandalwood. From hand fans to incense sticks and various cosmetics; every product was associated with sandalwood. I was being targeted by various vendors who tried to sell anything and everything they had. Although my eyes had their full attention only for the wooden artifacts I ended up buying a pretty looking folding hand fan which had sandalwood scent and definitely not made out of the expensive sandalwood as claimed. It has been more than four years now and even today the sandalwood paste scent always makes my trip to Mysore palace and my experience with those interesting vendors and their products alive within me.

Ambi Pur Blossoms and Breeze

The other nostalgic moment that I have been experiencing for sometime is the one that Ambi Pur Home Freshner- Blossoms and Breeze gives me. Its fragrance reminds me of nature, spring and rain forest. Takes me to this world filled with unpolluted environment surrounded by Mother Nature and I relive my moments that I had with my family and friends in Lonavla-Khandala, many years ago.

That's the power of fragrances, they can take you back anywhere anytime you already had been to and relive those moments.
