Freshen a room and mask unpleasant smells with a clean, uplifting citrus. What makes this one different is the base: it is alcohol-free and water-based, blended with phthalate-free fragrance oil, so there is no ethanol fug and nothing flammable under the sink.

Pūrē Standard
- Alcohol-free is the whole point. Almost every room spray on the shelf carries its fragrance in ethanol or SD alcohol. That is what gives you the sharp hit on the first spray, and it is why the can warns you about naked flames. A water-based carrier is a harder formulation and a better one to breathe.
- Non-hazardous and non-flammable. A direct consequence of the water base, and it means the bottle can live in a bathroom cupboard without a second thought.
- Citrus and herb, rather than citrus alone. Lemongrass keeps the lime from reading as cleaning product, which is what makes this one work in a kitchen or bathroom without smelling like you have just scrubbed it.
- The bottle refills. Barkly Basics sell 1L refill pouches, so the sprayer is not disposable.
- Where we would like more, and it matters if you are sensitive. The fragrance is phthalate-free but the individual aromachemicals are not itemised, so we cannot tell you which allergens are present. There is also no published spritz count, which is the number that would lift the Performance score.

Our Take
Lemongrass and kaffir lime for a quick reset, minus the aerosol hiss and the alcohol fug. Water-based, so it is not flammable and does not sting on the first spray.

Frequently asked
Is it really alcohol free?
Yes, and it is the whole point. Almost every room spray carries its fragrance in ethanol or SD alcohol, which is what gives the sharp hit on the first spray and why they warn you about naked flames. This one is water-based, so it is non-hazardous and non-flammable.
What does it smell like?
Lemongrass and kaffir lime. Fresh and uplifting, with the lemongrass keeping the lime from reading as cleaning product.
Can I refill it?
Yes. The bottle is refillable, reusable and recyclable PET, and Barkly Basics sell 1L refill pouches.
What size is it?
125ml, which is a travel-friendly size and suits a bathroom refresh.
Is it suitable if I am sensitive to fragrance?
The fragrance is phthalate-free, but Barkly Basics do not itemise the individual aromachemicals, so we cannot tell you which allergens are present. It is still a fragranced product.
