Aroma control...

The smell is definitely different than a regular BM...It has always turned me on.....Jimbeaux

For some reason or another the smell does not bother me. Maybe it would if it was someone else, I have always done these in private. I know, I need to branch out.

Lighting some matches also works very well. The sulfur smell of them pretty much neutralizes the fecal odor.

Hi !

I think all of us make the same smell after an enema. But there are great difference between small and high enemas. The small ones 1 liter or so gives no smell at all. The 4-5 liters (more than a gallon, gives a very special smell, I never will forget. I am sure I will be able to recognize it everywhere. And it takes some hours to get rid of it in the house. It is because of this it is difficult to take enemas if you are a guest some place, on holidays or m.. You need your private place long distance from other people. except your partner of cause. They are used to it?

Frankly the smell never brothered me. Especially if it is from a female partner. It is all part of it. I do not intend to be gross or disgusting but I happen to enjoy the odors of a female's private area, anal and vaginal areas. It excites me. Women want to get rid of odor. I LOVE IT ! 😉 😘

There used to be a pepperment scented castile soap that was pretty good at controlling the smell. I bought a bottle from Arthur Hamilton Co a few years ago, but I don't know if this company is still in business.

Nikki;I believe Aurthur Hamilton passed away a few years ago.I also made many purchases there in the 80s.

Get a small bathroom fan. Turn it on and point it toward an open window before you sit down. It's amazing how much of the odors disappear. Leave the fan on while the fun continues.

This is not the right thread to respond to such a pioneer to the enema evolution. The 1st erotic enema equipment came from him, colon tube, double baloon catheters, etc. I heard that his site was closed, no reports of his demise. I hope not. A site to trust gone.

The Mess - I have this love-hate relationship with enemas - love the prep, love giving it to myself (my partner does not share my love - just the hate part) and love holding it, but the expelling is not totally positive to me esp. the smell -what am I missing here - maybe I am too afraid that I will be "caught" by a partner who is not totally understanding.

On the other hand - lack of mess - on second thought, what I am totally comfortable with is using my shower hose with a valve to clean out ONLY the rectum - slip the grate over the drain aside and flush out - if you do it at the first of your shower, then by the time you finish, all water has drained out, you can wash with soap and ALL is totally clean.

The most pleasant enema that I know of is to light some scented candles and put on some soft music. The music does not help the odor, but the candles do. I prefer the apple cinnamon ones.

The smell is reaally just part of the scene. 'If you dont like the heat, keep out of the kitchen' is the old saying but you are still going to have to have a BM with or without enema! and it will smell.

A teaspoon or so of baking soda added to the water really does cut down the odor a lot.

I always keep a can of Nutra Air on hand just in case I stink up the bathroom after I've expelled an enema. It always seems to do the trick at getting rid of the unpleasant odor. That stuff really does work, although I always use baking soda in my enema solution, so it greatly cuts down on the odor to begin with. I guess it all depends on the length of time between enemas sessions as to how bad the fecal odor might be. Sometimes if I haven't had a good enema session in a period of a few weeks to a month and I'm way overdue for a good cleanout, even with using the baking soda solution the smell can still be very unpleasant.

That's when I use the Nutra Air. It really does help kill the reek.

Optimalhealthnetwork.com has two solid enema soaps in addition to Dr Bonners. One has frankensence and mirh and the other has sage and camomile added for different effects. I use the one with frankensence and it does a lot to knock down the odor. The odor will still be there but considerably reduced. My wife once asked me why I didn't seem to care about the bathroom smells and I told her that after some of the really bad things I have smelled they are almost like perfume. She thinks I am crazy. She likes the smell of the barnyard, maybe I should eat oats and barley. LOL

The best way to solve the smell problem,and it's cheap.Put a cloths pin over your nose ,case close.I had to throw that one in.

The smell comes with the territory and can never be completely eliminated,a number of suggestions have been made in the above post's,they have their merits.

That being said,with respect to myself, I discovered years ago, in my very early 20's that as I started doing thorough,complete clean outs on a regular basis and change my diet, the extremely foul odor began to diminish significantly. I personally do not very often use any substance in my enema solutions to mask the odor. This is specifically because over the years, all of the deep dwelling,foul smelling, mucosal plaque buildup has been removed and essentially does not have time to reside and decompose. For me, this comes as a direct result of regular irrigation in addition to changing my nutritional life style. I use the smell as a barometer of my internal health, let me go binge on some of my old favorite 'junk' goodies and I will know it right away! Not only will the smell be off putting, my intestines will be quite active because of it. So I do what is right, and not only am I healthier as a result, but I get much more enjoyment from my enemas because they are more for pleasure rather than corrective purposes.

G.N.

I am going to try the peppermint; However, as G. N. indicates, the smell does come with the territory. Definitely a good exhaust fan makes a big difference. Having experienced real outhouses ( the ones with pits and years of contents ) and the assorted loaded diapers of three kids ( now all grown and gone ), I find the odor of my initial expulsion not that bad; definitely a smell there; however it Does diminish with subsequent enemas. Maybe it should be 'enemas until no longer smelly' instead of 'enemas until clear' ; come to think of it, they probably coincide... 😁 😁 😁

I only notice a smell for a very short time when some of the really bad stuff is expelled. It's never been for very long and it's never been real bad. It is different from a regular bowel movement though. But hell, it's supposed to smell bad. I would worry if it didn't.

I haven't seen it mentioned here, but the last Dr.Bronners liquid Castile soap I bought was Citrus. It works well, and seems to knock some of the odor down as well. Certainly better than the non-scented castile soap when it comes to odor elimination.

The best result i've had with this problem is to flush soon & often.

Since I lost 80 per cent of my taste and smell thanks to several winters use of Zycam, it is no longer a problem for me.

Since most of the offensive aroma comes from methane gas, an open flame will do quite a good job of keeping it controlled. From some dark dusty corner of my mind I can hear my high school chemistry teacher saying "Brownian Movement" is what keeps all the little molecules moving around, and brings them in contact with the flame. The methane is then oxidized, and no more odor. My experience is that a candelabra with several open flames will in a matter of minutes bring the worst of enema-odors under control.

So my practice is, flush often, use the fart-fan, and burn several candles. The bad odor comes from the smelly brown stuff I am washing away, and once I have the "playing field" cleaned off and the smelly stuff flushed away, there are no more odors for the rest of my play time.

Can you imagine what the folks who work in operating rooms go through whenever bowel surgery is done? My EX was an O.R. R.N. and would sometimes talk about the odors she put up with when they did bowel resections,etc. (But she always said the worst smells were from the insides of patients who had extensive cancer.)

Anyway, if we have stuff that smells that bad inside of us, we have to wash it out completely and often, so enemas for everyone and frequently! When is the rest of the world going to catch-on to what we already know?

I alluded to other smells being more objectional than bathroom smells. One of the worst smells in my memory were those encountered cleaning up a battlefield after some of the bodies had been in the hot Korean sun for more than a week, the second worst was being confined on a ship with app 5000 seasick guys puking where ever the were at the time. I guess the severity of the odors to your senses could be mitigated by your personal feelings about what is causing the smell, and on the enema scene, for me, the odors are quite tolerable.

Willy, I am with you on that. I was involved in the Katrina Storm and aftermath as a civil service employee of 30 years for the City of New Orleans. As you stated on "smell", bath room related ones or MINOR. And thank you for your service sir.

If two people are into bdsm and enema play I think they should be mature enough to realize the small details like the aroma wont be the best in the world. As for the lack of control, pretty sure alot of bdsm/enema fans actually look forward to the lack of control, having given that control to the dominant partner by receiving an enema. Can always throw in a plug to keep things in place as well !

We are what we eat: Crap in/crap out. There's a lot to be said for the diet that you put into your body. I have a friend who is a perpetual Bohemian and does not use deoderant. Being around him would make your eyes water! Once he went vegan, he does not smell. I've made some changes in my diet and have found the odors have lessened.

As for me, I always smell petal-fresh! Yeah. Right. Seriously, the odor is momentary and I find that the water and/or soap diminish the odors. As previously posted, just lighting a match or two does the job as well.

The smell is what can make roses grow and can power

automobiles. That is what makes them "Earth friendly!"

Some peppermint soap followed by some air freshener helps. Smell is part of the scene and you get used to it.
