Yoga Mat Cleaner Spray (Peaceful Lavender), 4 fl oz - No Slippery Residue, Organic Essential Oils, Deep-Cleansing for Fitness Gear & Gym Equipment, Microfiber Towel Included

I had been using Manduka's mat wash, but the idea of using something more natural appealed to me. I purchased the 6 bottle deal because it was the best value, and I wanted to try a few scents. Although not all of the scents deserve a 5 star rating (in my opinion), their cleaning ability, natural ingredients, and the included microfiber towel make up for a couple of misses in the fragrances. Obviously, the appeal of a scent is very subjective, but this is what worked for me and what did not. 5 Stars: Soothing Sweet Rose I normally hate floral scents. In fact perfume gives me migraines. This has none of the typical cloying smells that are generally found in floral-scented products. The rose smells like what you would find in a garden, not on a store shelf. The scent is not overpowering, but it is strong enough to be enjoyed while using the mat. This quickly became my favorite out of all of the bottles, and I wish I could buy just this scent in a 6 pack. 5 Stars: Energizing Peppermint This is a close second to the rose scent. It is refreshing but not overwhelming; in fact, the scent is fairly faint, even while being applied. It is just enough to notice during savasana. 4 Stars: Uplifting Eucalyptus I HATED this scent when I first tried it. My first thought was that I had just coated my mat with the equivalent of Vicks VapoRub. I was wondering how to get the stench off of the mat before I began my practice, and the only positive I could come up with was that it might be nice if I used it when I had a cold. Surprisingly, once it dried, the scent was really pleasant. The medicine smell dissipated, and what was left was enjoyable even through extended Child's Pose. 1 Star: Calming Citrus This was one of the scents that I expected to like the most, and the scent literally made me feel nauseous. It smelled like I had doused my mat in 409. Despite the natural ingredients (and yes, I double checked that nothing artificial had been slipped into this bottle), it was overpowering and artificial smelling. I think this could be salvaged with the addition of a ginger scent, but as it is, it is unbearable. I didn't try the lavender since I purchased that for my daughter, but it seems like enough other reviews have covered that anyway. I haven't tried the unscented either since I enjoy the other scents too much to take a break from them for now.

I have been in the market for a long time for a yoga mat cleaner that meets all my requirements: not full of toxic ingredients that will hurt my skin, pleasant smelling (or even unscented), inexpensive, long-lasting, and something that actually works! This checked off each of them. The ingredient list is short, and I recognize the names of all the ingredients (I use some of them on a regular basis too), not to mention that there are only 9 of them in this mat cleaner. None are toxic, and all the ingredients are natural. I ordered the sweet rose scent, and it is has a light and pleasant aroma. I have tried other cleaners with little to no success lifting much of the dirt on my mat, and there were some stains that frankly I didn't think would lift. I sprayed those areas liberally, left the cleaner to soak in for 5 minutes, came back to wipe it down with the microfiber towel... and a lot of the stains lifted right up! I didn't expect them to be completely gone, as I have had my yoga mat for about 5 years now, but it looks much newer than it did before. I didn't have to scrub very much and the remaining ones are a lot lighter! I hate feeling like I have to deep clean my mat, and a decent mat cleaning spray shouldn't take so much energy to efficiently use. The cleaner doesn't leave my mat sticky or slimy, and I love that not only is the scent pleasant, I can also tell that it isn't full of harsh chemicals. I have very sensitive skin, and have had no reaction to the product after using it for a couple months. If I had any pets or children I wouldn't be paranoid about this cleaner being in their reach (obviously I wouldn't want them eating it, but I wouldn't have to worry about it damaging their skin or anything else it came in contact with if it were accidentally sprayed). A yoga mat cleaner should be able to contact your skin directly without discomfort, because your skin contacts the mat it cleans directly, and this one has my vote!

This stuff smells good, cleans well, is a good size bottle, has wonderful list of organic ingredients, pretty label, and came with a towel. I am really impressed with this small company and the high quality. I want to support them and try more of their products as I am about organic and well sourced materials. If you want to read more about why I am impressed: I have a beloved yoga mat from a company in Seattle that is now going out of business (aka, I can't buy a new one from them as they are out of stock). I love the mat I got from them in 2010 dearly and we have been through so much together -including a 200hr teacher training, daily yoga at studio for years (in addition to lots of hot yoga classes), and a move across the country from Colorado to the Midwest over a year ago. Being a native of dry air, I have no idea how to clean my yoga mat in this funky humid environment! In Denver I could soak and clean my mat and hang it up dry, and it would be good by the next day --- not here.. and it was developing a weird mold funk smell. I quit using it and thought I was going to have to through it out (and haven't found a new mat I like yet!)- but this stuff has saved the day. It took the funk out and renewed my beloved mat with a wonderful scent. I am beyond impressed and grateful.

The scent didn't smell like I was hoping for but instead smelled of artificial rose such as the one you would smell from an essential oil bottle at a store. I don't expect it to smell like the beautiful scent of freshly cut Roses from grocery/flower shops but I was hoping that it would at least smell somewhat similar as there's quite a few Rose essential oils that smell spot on. For what it's worth, the scent is at least soft and not overwhelming all while doing a good job at cleaning. It works best on light stains/dirt as I noticed it didn't work well on tougher ones. I used it as a cleaner but apparently you can use it for bedding or other items if you want. I wouldn't recommend using it on your body but I imagine it would work best on things such as your shoes or furniture. It also worked pretty good on my Yoga Mat as the scent didn't linger for too long and smelled much better compared to using a harsh cleaning product.

The first time I ordered this I only received the towel no cleaner but the company immediately sent me another set. Wonderful quick response. I love the smell and doesn't leave my yoga mat slippery.

Love the spray. I use this for my yoga mat and weight bench. Smells great

I would give it 5 stars, because it works well and smells really good. However, I looked at the ingredients list to realize that it has tea tree oils in it which are HIGHLY toxic to cats. I have 5 cats, so I won't be using this product anymore.

Yes, it is embarrassing (and gross!) that I've never properly cleaned my yoga mat after three years of use. I've used it outdoors quite a bit, and I thought that the dirt ground into the groves of the mat would never come out. The sad condition of my mat finally got to me, and I put it in the tub and scrubbed it with soap--not a lot of improvement. Next I used a homemade concoction I read about on the net which was a total fail. Finally, after much research, I ordered the peaceful lavender Asutra mat cleaner. I got an email from the owner of the company before I received the cleaner with very helpful tips on how best to use the cleaner. Honestly, I thought the best results I could obtain was that I could clean the surface dirt off the mat. Boy was I wrong! The Asutra mat cleaner has removed years of grime from my mat. The deep cleaning method as explained in the very helpful email removed the stains that I thought were embedded in the mat and would never come out. This, in my opinion, is the best mat cleaner on the market. A little bit goes a long way, and the free microfiber towel is the perfect cleaning tool--just the right size, lint free, and dries quickly. The customer service is excellent! In addition to the first email, I also received another email checking to see if I was satisfied with the cleaner. Oh, yes, yes I certainly am! I'm a customer for life! If, like me, you need a product that easily deep cleans your mat and smells wonderful to boot, then take the plunge and order Asutra. You won't be sorry.
