I'm a marketing genius. Seriously, Febreze, call me.
Monday, May 25, 2009 at 6:14AM A while back I agreed to review some products for Febreze's new 'Destinations' line. And they sent me, literally, a duffel bag full of Febreze goodies.
I thought, hm. I wonder if they're trying to tell me something.
But the sheer quantity was too much to just be telling me that I stink. Obviously, there was a different message implied. It was almost as if...almost...they wanted someone to take it upon themselves to neutralize odours wherever they are found. Someone to dispense lovely-smelling justice, in all the stinky back alleys and rancid gutters. Someone like...

The Febreze Ninja's known aresenal includes:
- Hawaiian Aloha: kind of heavy floral (hibiscus)
- Brazilian Carnaval: kinda light & fruity
- Moroccan Bazaar: slightly spicy, a whiff of ginger
The Febreze Ninja has recently been assumed to have ninja'd the following locations:
- A local resident's home, after a bout of stomach flu, was cleared out thanks to the Febreze Candle in Brazilian Carnaval.
- The stench of a local employer's washroom (for the male employees) was subdued by the Febreze Air Effects in Moroccan Bazaar.
- The stinkiest diaper pail on the block suddenly found itself next to a Febreze NOTICEables plug-in that was dispensing Hawaiian Aloha. The process of adding or subtracting poopy diapers to said pail is now much more pleasant.
- The Febreze Ninja also launched on offensive on the public washroom at the local park, using Air Effects in both Brazilian Carnaval and Hawaiian Aloha. While the scents work well together, the Ninja admitted defeat, and left an uncharacteristic note stating that if she was expected to take on the smell of corpses and crackhead urine, she was going to need a bigger duffel bag.
Where will the Febreze Ninja strike next? Only time - and smell - will tell!

Oooh! Can the febreeze ninja show up at my place sometime soon? I've got a litter box that I keep putting off dealing with that's reaching scary stink levels!
Great post!
My husband's shoes need to be ninja'd. Seriously.
I love it! Is the Febreze ninja for hire? Because I know of some pretty offensive smells that must be eradicated. IE my husband's car. Phew.
i need the febreze ninja! there is some major stinky odor coming from hubby's feet
If the febreeze ninja is making any money I want training. I can definitely run around bathrooms and livingrooms spraying deliciousness- for the right compensation of course!
Great post. Priceless picture.
Hmmm, Logan loves ninjas. I bet I could get him a suit like that, arm him with a spray bottle of Febreze and he would go to town on my house! Thanks for the idea!
Good outfit.
Feel free to send the Febreeze Ninja to my house. The bedroom shared by all 3 boys could use a bit of sunshine rather than their stink. The back room/mud room could use a bit of refreshing too. Can you pencil the Ninja in?
I love it! The Febreeze Ninja ROCKS! ;)
The Febreeze Ninja visited our hallway bathroom after an unruly party guest dropped a deuce here today. Thanks ninja!
I guess the Ninja's calling card is more of a parting whiff.
Does the Febreeze ninja do parties? I think my son would LOVE that...
So the lock of hair is a bow to the Febreze ninja's inherent femininity? Nice touch.
Oh Febreze Ninja! Come to my house! I need you! (not in that way...because my house is really stinky right now).
Wooo hooo! The Febreeze Ninja rocks! I love it - good job. I hope the Ninja doesn't show up at my house, or we have got a real problem!
Love the picture of the ninja!
You've got pretty eyes, gf!
Did that sound faggy?
Ack! Somehow I missed this awesome post. Thank you for linking it on random tuesday Febreeze Ninja!
Febreze is terrible, instead of cleaning properly, we cover smells with uh, other smells? More accurately, Febreze just neutralizes odour receptors.... Also, tons of people are allergic to scents like that, how can you violate someone's airspace like that...?? All seriousness aside though, Febreze Ninja? Hilarious.
