Opinions on Odor Free Na'Scent?

This discussion is about the effectiveness of Odor Free Na'Scent, an ostomy deodorizer, and whether it's worth purchasing. The original poster is seeking feedback from others who have used it to see if it truly eliminates odors as advertised.

Here are some insights and advice shared by others:

- The poster notes that Na'Scent is advertised on the forum and mentions trying it out. They feel it reduces odor and are giving it more time to see the full effect. They also use chlorophyll tablets to help with odor control.

- For pouch lubrication, the poster uses cooking spray or Vaseline and is curious about what others use for deodorizing. They find baby oil works well except in hot weather and believe Na'Scent is effective and reasonably priced when bought in bulk directly from the manufacturer.

- Opinions on Na'Scent's performance vary. Some users find it works as well or better than other products, while others think it offers no advantage over regular air fresheners or doesn't help at all. Its small spray bottle is convenient for travel, and in the UK, it can be obtained for free through an NHS prescription.

- Alternative deodorizers mentioned include:
1. Hollister M9, which one user rates as the best, though Medicare only covers two bottles per month.
2. Stop Odor Plus, available through Montreal Ostomy Accessories and Byrum, allows for three bottles per month.
3. Coloplast Brava Lubricating Deodorant, which has a pleasant baby-shampoo scent and is preferred by one user.
4. Poo-Pourri, which can be sprayed in the toilet bowl before emptying to eliminate bathroom odor.
5. Tic-Tacs, with 3–4 placed in the pouch, are cited as an inexpensive way to reduce odor.

- For lubricants, baby oil is frequently recommended as the most effective and economical option, with large bottles for home or office use and small bottles for outings. Regular vegetable oil, cooking spray, and Vaseline are also successfully used as low-cost lubricants.
