Pretty amazing at removing soap scum, this Vamoose bathroom cleaner, however, doesn't smell like usual cleaning products (in other words, it's really quite pleasant). Great on taps, tiles, shower screens and baths, it removes stains without having to scrub. You simply spray the product onto your surface and wipe clean – it's as easy as that. For limescale or heavy soiling, leave to soak for two to three minutes before wiping. You can't use it on copper or brass fittings, but in our opinion, this is the best bathroom cleaner for those who want a sparkling bathroom but don't like the usual bleach-y smell.
