Sanitizing your space (and yourself) has never smelled so good

I’ve always been a hyper-organized neatnik with a penchant for cleaning, and the pandemic has obviously kicked all of these tendencies up several notches. At the height of my COVID paranoia, I went so far as using a Clorox wipe on my hands and forearms along with my dropped-off groceries before bringing them into the house, which did not make my skin particularly happy. I’ve chilled out (a little) since, but I’m still all about decontaminating myself as well as my surroundings and I found a much more enjoyable way to do it.

Apothia’s IF Sanitizing Mist serves up WHO- and CDC-approved disinfection with 80% (organic) alcohol and hydrogen peroxide plus a dash of glycerin to keep your hands happy and hydrated—but that’s not even the best part. The scent is the real star here, and I think it would be impossible not to fall for the blend of fresh white florals, zesty grapefruit and crisp Yuzu fruit. Even more, once your hands are germ-free you can spritz it pretty much everywhere else—and you’ll want to because it smells that amazing.

In other good news (because we’ll take any we can get, right?), you can enjoy the olfactory experience without the disinfection courtesy of several other IF iterations, including eau de parfum, hand and body wash, hand and body lotion, a candle and a reed diffuser. For some reason, surrounding ourselves with IF feels very 2020 since it seems so much is up in the air right now—and this fragrance should be in your air, too.
