Personal Toilet Scent Strips

Quick dissolve strips help mask odor in WC.

[UPDATE: BAKED - see link]

There are already mint strips that freshen your breath; little scotch tape bits that dissolve almost instantly on the tongue.

Personal Toilet Scent Strips look very similar. Drop one into a toilet before you ... well, you know. The strip quickly dissolves, leaving a sheen of highly aromatic oil floating on the water surface. The more the surface is disturbed, the more scent is released.

(Based on my personally-tested method for reducing bathroom-generated odors: spray the canned room scent spray INTO the toilet before making a deposit. The strips are conceived to be more portable.)

Another lovely thought. [awesomest, Jun 07 2007]

BAKED: poof drops http://www.poofdrops.com/
Same idea, but in liquid drops. [awesomest, Jul 18 2007]

       Sounds like this would work. Mouthwash might work, too.

       [phundug] Something oil-based is best, so that it actually floats on top of the water, waiting to release it's delicious aroma whenever disturbed by "stuff."

       //waiting to release it's delicious aroma// I loathe synthetic nasal musak!   

       The problem with this idea is that it seems mainly designed to mask the smell of your own shit. It is a sordid but basic truism that people don't mind the smell of their own shit - just that of other people.

       [Max] That's the point, of course! I may not mind my own aroma, but I do mind the thought of sharing it with others.

       And thanks for wanting to take care of that before I use the facility.

       I propose having colitis for a month. A flareup can make even the most devout selfshit lover to want to weep from shame and self-loathing.   

       In addition to...you know...having to poo a lot.   

       For healthy people, I'd say I agree with you.

       //I propose having colitis for a month.// I wouldn't if I were you. According to shapu it's not very nice.
