FIRST IMPRESSIONS:

After reading some other reviewers saying this spray helps to dry up wet spots in the bed, I was sold. Plus the idea of containing pheromones and leaving my sheets or anywhere else I spray it smelling pleasantly fresh are big selling features. Just a pity it didn't live up to the hype for me.


SCENT ~ INGREDIENTS:

I went with my favorite scent when it comes to air fresheners and candles – Vanilla Fields. Eden sells the Silky Sheets Pheromone Powder Mist in a range of other fragrances such as: Mystical Musk, Spring Rain, Pear Blossom, Botanical Breeze, Plumeria and Orange Mango. It's proudly made in the USA for the Classic Erotica company.

Apparently they also make a Passion Pillows Pheromone Pillow Mist. I hear you ask why you can't just use this one on the pillows? The company dissuades against using the Powder Mist on pillows due to the powdery natural of the spray.

Silky Sheets is made specifically for spraying over bedding to create a subtle fresh scent. But be careful not to hold it too close (recommended 6-8” away) as it will leave a white powder on whatever surface you choose to spray it on.

The ingredients are: Alcohol Denat, Talc, Propane, Butane, Isobutane, Fragrance (parfum), Mineral Oil (Huile minerale) Copulandrone, Copuline-alike, Reconstituted Andronone.
Therefore is extremely flammable.


PACKAGING:

My can of Silky Sheets looks very different to the image on the product page. Mine came in an iridescent white spray can with a clear plastic lid. On the front is a yellow strip top and bottom with a white orchid looking flower above the fragrance name. The back features some basic information about the contents, typical warnings and of course the ingredients. The can itself is 6” in height, just under 6” in circumference and holds 4oz.

EXPERIENCE:

The first chance I got to test out the ‘wet spot' theory was when my darling puppy placed his mouth on my sheet after having a drink. Needless to say he left a small moist patch. I sprayed some of my Silky Sheets on – making sure to hold it far enough away and all it managed to do was make a larger wet patch! Myth busted – in my case anyway.

The worst part about this spray is a chemical odor that appears within 10 seconds of spraying it. You get that very first initial vanilla scent, but then hit with a rather offensive odor that I can only imagine is the butane or propane taking over and totally drowning out the vanilla. It is a smell that is on the verge of creating a migraine for me.
Obviously the so called ‘pheromones' do nothing for me.

Personally I don't like the idea of sleeping on talc (I won't use talc anywhere on my body) so I don't spray it on my sheets. Besides it really would be pointless cause once the chemical smell dissipates there is no scent left. I thought it would be great for spraying around my bedroom carpet to keep my room smelling fresh – due to having a dog who sleeps in here. It doesn't work so I have gone back to a store bought pet carpet foam which leaves my room smelling fantastic.

I would never spend actual $ on this stuff, but I do plan to buy another stronger scent with points in the hope it doesn't have that nasty odor that takes over what the spray should smell like.

Vanilla Silky Sheets only gets 1 star from me because of the chemical odor!

Unfortunately, the horrid chemical smell that lingered after each spray was too nasty for my liking. This just couldn't live up to my expectations; which actually weren't all that high. All I wanted was a nice smelling spray that would leave my room with a fresh aroma.

This bought itself a way one ticket to the rubbish dump.
