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!
120 hours of fragrance sounds great and I like how easy it is to move around. I have loads of candles at the moment but this sounds like a great alternative.
It really is amazing and the more I am using Luna the more I am loving it as well!
I just started hearing a Scentsy. I’m fascinated by all the products they offer. I need the one that will make my car smell good.
I’m not sure if they do anything for cars, I’ll have to have a look into that.
I am very much interested in it and would love to try it :D… i love air freshness at my place 🙂
They are amazing aren’t they – the can really add a different feel to the room.
Scentsy Go sounds like a brilliant product, especially because you can move it around and charge it by USB. This can save a lot of money in the long run as you don’t need to buy separate air fresheners for every room in the house.
It really is something you can use anywhere and even easily take away with you.
I’ve heard great things about Scentsy products but have never tried them. Looks like i need to.
Most definitely give them a try – I’ve not tried any yet that I haven’t thought WOW about.
I would be so happy to have this next to my bed with a hint of sweet pea fragrance in the air. I would need one in my office too!
It is perfect for both of those places, I’m getting Jammy Time next perfect for by the bed.
This looks like a great product and the fact that it is rechargeable is an added plus. I must look into getting one.
Definitely do have a look into it – it is such a versatile way to fragrance the home.
Very smart and beautiful. : )
It really is isn’t it – you wouldn’t straight away know what it is.
This is so clever. It will be super useful when traveling. It’s nice when you can make yourself feel more at home with a nice scent.
Most definitely I can see it being used in the car as well while people are travelling as it fits in the cup holder.
Having this be rechargeable is a great feature! Im not really into scentsy or home fragrances as a whole, but this is pretty cool!
They aren’t for everyone – I know others who aren’t too keen and I think that’s nice everyone is different.
I just love Scentsy products. Their scents smell amazing without being totally overwhelming.
I totally agree when you get the right amount they really fill the room beautifully.
The Scentsy Go sounds like the perfect thing to keep a car smelling fresh. It would also be good for travel!
It really is the perfect thing for that sort of time, there is nothing to spill either so really safe.
Love Scentsy products! And being rechargeable is great. Better for environment and wallet in the long run without having to replace batteries. Thanks!
Most definitely I was talking to Tina as well and the pods are the most cost effective product to rebuy as well.
Sounds epic! (Still can’t believe you got one before me hahaha)! 240 hours of scent for £12 is a bargain and a half – you’d need 2 large Yankee jars to get that much scent. That’s £48 at full RRP ?
Cannot wait for mine to arrive. Thanks for including my page links xx
It is amazing, isn’t it! I’m looking forward to hearing what you think about it as well. Honestly it is no problem 🙂 x
I was introduced to Scentsy products years ago when I worked for the elementary school. One of the teachers had a basket party in the break room. I fell in love!
Oh now I bet that was fun to look through – they smell absolutely amazing don’t they.
Oh my goodness! I love scentsy, but had no idea about this product! I need to contact my consultant ASAP!
It was brand new out yesterday, and honestly, I really rate it, it takes a lot for me to love something so much haha.
I take my Scentsy travel tins with me when I travel. Great way to keep the room fresh and deodorized. Love Scentsy. I will definitely have to check this out with my Scentsy rep. Thanks for sharing.
I’ve started talking bits away when I travel it is lovely to keep the room fresh.
This is a great way to take some scents with you. I would love to see them make a smaller option though. I love so many of the Scentsy scents but would love to take them in the car where I can chose how much to diffuse.
This fits in a cup holder so while it isn’t the size of a car air freshener it is most definitely perfect for popping in your car.
I love that this is rechargeable. Probably one of the most important things when it comes to something like this is that you can recharge it. I know for me if it is something that I constantly have to replace the batteries I will probably never get it. I’m excited to try this.
I am so about rechargable now – we have hardly any plugsockets in the bunglow so I like everything to be recharged haha
I’ve never heard of these before and I absolutely love candles and diffusers too. Great that it’s re-chargeable.
It is really like the next step – I am in love with it – I have had it on more than my diffuser since it arrived.
Oh cool, I hadn’t heard of this before. I like the idea. I’ve always been a fan of Scentsy products.
It’s new well yesterday now it is amazing, isn’t it! Definitely a must in my mind.
I love that Scentsy Go is rechargeable! This is such a game changer when it comes to the inside of my car smelling fresh.
It really is isn’t it – it’s like they have taken the next step in home fragrance.
First I have heard of these new portables by scents. Will have to check them out and see what they are all about.
Most definitely worth looking into I think it is such an awesome idea!
I’ve heard so much about these beauties
Certainly would be amazing to have
They are really good, honestly I’ve become a huge fan of the brand.
These do look fab. The only thing that puts me off is the price really…and the fact you need to buy ‘special’ pods to re-fill them? When money’s short I sometimes cheat and re-fill my gorgeous looking reed diffusers with ‘cheaper’ essential oils or fragrances that often do a great job.
I can understand that for me, I think the fact your getting 120 hours for £12 works out OK in my mind, especially when I buy things like Yankee which cost nearly £20 for 60 hours I think it is.
