Hi there! Aspiring food scientist/sensory scientist here. The way that is bottle “works” is by taking advantage of retro nasal olfaction. Basically there’s 2 ways for the compounds for aroma to get into the nasal cavity: the nose and up the back of your throat. I think a lot of people have heard that most of flavor is smell, and that’s completely right, since retronasal olfaction accounts for most of flavor (in addition to taste and nerve sensations). So in fact, you’re mostly just smelling the flavors of these pods, though there is some taste happening. Now the problem with this bottle is that the people have different levels of ability to perceive aroma or odor. Some people just lack the receptors for some odors (this is called anosmia). The bigger issue is with the nose. In order to have retronasal olfaction, the nose HAS to be unblocked so that air can flow through. This can change with allergies or illness, and it’s why flavors are harder to taste when your nose is stuffed. The general population also has people who have structural differences like deviated septum. This really decreases your ability to perceive odor. Okay so two paragraphs later, what’s my point? My point is everyone perceives aroma and flavor with differing levels of sensitivity. That makes this product difficult to market, and the AirUp company have made really broad claims on how EVERYONE will experience this sensation. Also!!! Aroma and flavor is extremely hard to capture in a pod such as that, and that’s part of the reason why many people experience the “vomit” aroma/flavor. Aroma composition is crazy complex, and by producing such complex flavor pods, the aromas will definitely get muddled and interact in odd ways. Thank you for making this video because I’ve been wondering for MONTHS about this company and actual consumer opinions. What you’ve showed us a lack of sensory consumer testing before launching of this product, and it’s been supported by the comments saying it worked for 2/10 who tried it.
Interesting! I think I’m going to buy one for my daughter with Autism. I’m trying to get her to drink more water. Due to her sensory issues (heightened) I think this may be a great solution. It’s worth a shot. I’ll provide an update after she tries it. Appreciate you sharing your expertise. ♥️❤️♥️

Its very bad, the bottle has holes meaning it leaks water when sideways, most of the air scents are bad, u legitimately started with "it smells like paint" proving the point, and yet most TH-camr rate it high... Why lie?
I have an air up bottle too and I think it works pretty good. Some scent pods are more intensive then others but it still tastes good. For example, lemon tastes like you put a few slices of lemon in a glass of water but peach actually tastes like ice tea
I think it's a higher rating I found I have been drinking mire water than I ever have so if you struggle drinking water for any reason I highly recommend one some pods also taste real bitter Hope, this helps .
You are able to use sparkling water which could be a game changer if your into bubly and you can complain about the price but as someone who owns it its for sure worth it in the long term
@@forzahorizonnn I mean not really. I understand that some people don’t like water, but if you really hate water that much, you can get flavor pods.

Again, I understand where you’re coming from, but there’s so many ways to fix it than spending a crazy amount of many on a glorified sippy cup and some Keurig pods
I’m subscribed to your TH-cam channel. I already have an AirUp bottle, and I can definitely say that it works. I haven’t used mine for a while though. I use the TikTok Stanley Cup (the 40 ounce one). I’m still in school (not at this exact second).
i don't understand why you should pay a large amount of money then another quite considerable amount for flavoured water when you can just.. drink the actual thing
Of course it works. But so does fruit tea. They even make ones specially made to go into cold water. Just as easy as this, still no added calories but way cheaper
You can actually get it for free in Emirates mall it’s in Dubai. There’s like machines that gives you different flavored water so you can get it for free
I have one, and no bullshit with the orange silicon tip and the cherry smell thing it was disgusting. Not sure if it was the silicon taste and cherry, but it made me gag like it tasted like what I thought acid would taste like.
