I've used Tic Tacs in the pouch if out of what I really like... M9 - it also comes in a room spray. However, don't use the spray in the pouch - I got scolded in the hospital, he said there's something in it that can hurt the stoma.
I keep a diffuser with essential oil in the bathroom and we have Scentsy type candles in other parts of the house.

Tic Tacs work really well. Two into the pouch after each empty and no problems.

Who would have ever thought a Tic Tac would be used this way!
Certainly not the makers of Tic Tacs! They could get into the medical realm for their products! Haha I am going to try this!
