For a scent that’s more aromatherapy than ammonia, get Caldrea’s Green Tea Patchouli Counter Top Cleanser ($8 at surlatable.com). It cuts grease like an industrial powerhouse, without the fumes. Williams-Sonoma’s Pink Grapefruit-Ginger Floor Cleaner smells so sweet it might actually make you want to clean the floor ($9.50 at williams-sonoma.com). And Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day Lavender-Scented Dish Soap is cruelty-free, bio-degradable and pretty cheap, so you can feel good about sudsing up ($4.99 at Whole Foods and Ace Hardware stores).
Doing your laundry is never a day at the beach, but the Beach House Laundry Fragrance from The Good Home Co. can make your clothes smell like one ($18 at goodhomeco.com). The company’s coolest innovation: Beach House Vacuum Beads. Toss a dozen of the tiny beads into the vacuum bag and you’ll almost be able to hear the surf ($12 at rubber-ducky.com). You can lug those cleansers around in style with the Housekeepers Box ($29 at restorationhardware.com).
Move over, Martha.
