“I was disappointed with this product. I used it with my Nan who has late stage Alzheimers. She found the sounds from the CD confusing and at times appeared slightly alarmed by it. It features sounds from in a garden shed - preparing to complete work in the garden; but this included banging and knocking noises, which startled my nan more than evoked any memories. Later in the CD it focuses on relaxing in the garden. There is a lot of emphasis on what sounds like a drinks jug with ice clattering around and the sound of it being poured. I was disappointed with the scents too. I was really looking forward to the scent of cut grass, as for most it would evoke memories. Unfortunately it does not smell of that, and to me smelt more like melons. My nan could not recognise the scent, although she did of the rose scent, but only after I said that is what it was. Disappointed in the product, I won't be using it again for my nan. Very poor considering the cost.”
