Well, *My House* Doesn’t Smell Bad

You are somewhat insensitive toward the offensive odors in your own home but attuned to picking up the offensive smells in others. According to a recent study by Dutch Boy and Harris Interactive, 96 percent of adults have noticed an offensive odor in another person’s home, but only 36 percent have noticed a similar smell in their own home. Of course, Dutch Boy has got an angle on all this research. Its new Refresh paint is formulated with Arm & Hammer odor-eliminating technology. Not only is it a smell destroyer, but it also has zero volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and is mildew-resistant. It can be found at Dutch Boy retailers starting at $23 a gallon.
