Scentsy Go Pods Portable Fragrance System – Review
I have long loved candles and I’ve had a diffuser around the home for the past couple of years. However, I am always interested in trying new home fragrance products and when I heard about Scentsy Go and Scentsy pods I knew it was worth a try.
However what I didn’t expect was how much I would like it. I’m completely in love with inspiring fragrances they provide and the system itself.
What is the Scentsy Go?
If you are yet to hear about Scentsy Go, which is released today(!) then let me tell you a little about it. Perhaps a first of its kind, Scentsy Go is a portable fragrance device that is small enough to fit in the drinks holder of your car, while big enough to pack a powerful punch.
Running on battery power the Scentsy Go is a fan diffuser which has a completely rechargeable internal lithium battery. The battery is charged via the included USB cord and offers up to 40 hours of fragrance and light per charge.
What’s more, there is no heat let off from this device, making it friendly for those with young children or mischievous pets.
How does the Scentsy Go work?
Set up is simple; you twist open the cover on top of the container and pop in one or two Scentsy Pods (each pack includes two scent pods) in the fragrance of your choice. Choose from a wide range of fragrances including vanilla bean, Amazon Rain and Baked Apple Pie.
Press and hold the top button to turn on the fan, until the indicator light switches on and the fragrance begins to be released. It is worth noting a second press once on will turn on eco mode, which intermittently turns the system on and off, releasing the perfect amount of fragrance.
The air flows through the Scentsy pods and the pods release the perfect fragrance thanks to the beads in the pods.
The light button is located under the power button, one press of this will turn the light on to the seven-colour light LED rotation. If you press this button again you can pick and choose which colour you would device to stay on.
What did I think of the Scentsy Go?
I honestly am so impressed, I had some Scentsy sent over from the US many years ago and hadn’t realised it had made its way to the UK with quite such force.
I actually popped up a post on Facebook and asked if anyone knew of any Scentsy consultants, after I’d read quite a few Scentsy reviews, and was directed towards Tina of MotherGeek, who has kindly taken me under her wing and let me buy lots more Scentsy.
Alongside the Scentsy Go I was sent the pods in Luna, which offers a mix of white florals, including jasmine, sweet pea and freesia, alongside juicy berries and sandalwood. I think these are my favourite Scentsy fragrances so far.
I’m going to be honest, at first I wasn’t sure what to think of this scent, I found it quite sweet and overpowering, however, I had put two pods in and so I took one out and it really made a difference. Two pods increase the fragrance strength for larger spaces.
The bungalow we live in is quite small and the two pods together were obviously overwhelming for the space we have, as soon as I switched to one I felt like I had a different fragrance filling the room, an uplifting fragrance experience that I really loved.
So I definitely suggest playing around with the number of pods you use, to see what works best for your space and to get the perfect amount of scent.
Overall I am loving my Scentsy Go system, I cannot wait to order some more pods later in different fragrances. At the moment there are 11 different fragrance pods to choose from, with each set of 2 pods costing £12.99. Pods provide up to 120 hours of fragrance and are filled with no spill fragrance beads.
How can I buy the Scentsy Go and Scentsy pods?
If you fancy buying the Scentsy Go for yourself (I know I’ll be buying some more as gifts) they are available to buy NOW, cost £61 and come in a choice of gold, rose gold or silver resin band. Scentsy bars are also available to buy with warmers – just pop a cube or two in the warmer to fill your space with long lasting fragrance.
The Scentsy Go pack includes two pods and is the ultimate in wax free scent!
Share the Scentsy love! You can find out more about the Scentsy Go on the website as well.
I received the products mentioned in this post free of charge, however, all opinions and thoughts are my own.
Pin it!
I was using two pods at a time, and only time I smelt scent is when it was directly under my nose. I do like scents products but they NEVER last as long as they say. I say 1 entire bar of wax lasts maybe 12 hours. pods last a few days (directly under nose) might be ok in a small bathroom with the door closed
Oh no that’s not good 🙁 I run mine every night in the bedroom on eco and I find it works well. Have you tried different scents? I’m not sure if perhaps we have tried different ones?
A bit pricey for me. Would consider buying one on sale though as I love the idea.
It is quite expensive but I actually think it is worth it after using it – definitely a must grab if it’s on offer of course 😉
It’s design was copied off of the Airmoji which has been around over a year.
I have to admit I’ve never heard of the Airmoji before? Does it sell here in the UK?
Had not heard of Scentsy before, love that this is rechargeable, great for the car as well!
wow,i really liked the look of this,i love my wax burners and candles but im always worried about pets knocking them over,this sounds perfect for me,i think the colour changing lights would really set the mood aswell,lovely,thanks for the review,ill try and get my daughter to buy me one for my next birthday or christmas
I have something similar at home and love it.
This looks like a fab alternative to Yankees that I currently burn at an incredible rate lol
I really can’t stand Fragrance it gets down my throat and irritates me my partner is more into air fresheners than I am ??
I have never heard of these before, they look good
Oh wow I love that it is a fragrance pod and has little scented beads. I can imagine that is very soothing for those who have anxiety like myself! x
wow I love that this is portable love to have scents everwhere I go
I think I’m confused! Is it still wax in the insert that you put in? Or is it oil now?
No it’s neither (just to be different) it’s little scented beads that are inside the pod, when the wind from the fan goes through them the scent is released.
