Why That Smell Happens, and The One Setting That Silently Fixes Everything
That smell is famous.
Open your fridge, and the smell is definitely not strong enough to make you gag, but strong enough to make you sniff then wonder âwhat is that?â
Sometimes itâs onions. Sometimes itâs fish. Often, itâs just a mix of leftovers and open containers all releasing their little personality into the air.
It has become the norm in many Indian family homes, mini shock smells.
But should it be this way?
No. Not any longer.
World Emoji Day is here, so letâs retire the nose holding emoji from your kitchen story. A fresh smelling fridge is not a luxury, itâs a smart feature one you can now switch on.
Allow me to explain how.
First, Letâs Get Real: Why Do Fridges Smell?

Itâs not because youâre messy.
In fact, you might be one of those people who clean their fridge shelves every Sunday. But still, by Wednesday, something starts to feel off.
Thatâs because the real problem is not on the shelves. Itâs in the air.
Inside every fridge is a little ecosystem. A mix of cool air, stored food, moisture from produce, and the occasional open container of halwa or reheated sabzi. When this air doesnât move properly or get cleaned, it starts to carry smells.
Now imagine those smells staying inside. Day after day. Mixing with other smells. Settling onto other foods. Even if you clean the shelves, that stale air remains trapped.
And so, the moment you open the fridge, your nose becomes the detective. Even before your eyes.
Itâs Not Just About Smell. Itâs About Freshness
Hereâs the expert truth.
A fridge that smells bad is also a fridge thatâs making your food go stale faster.
- Fruits rot quicker
- Vegetables go limp sooner
- Milk starts tasting âoffâ
- Cooked food picks up smells of raw items
- You throw away more food than you should
So fixing the smell is not just about comfort. Itâs about saving money. Saving time. And saving the food you worked hard to cook.
Which brings us to the setting that changes everything.
Meet ABT Pro: The Invisible Fridge Upgrade

Imagine if your fridge came with a natural air purifier built inside. One that didnât spray artificial scents or use chemicals. But one that simply cleaned the air inside your fridge, every single day.
Thatâs what ABT Pro Technology does.
Itâs a smart filtration system that constantly absorbs odour and bacteria from the fridge air. So every time you open the door, the inside feels cool, calm, and surprisingly neutral. Like fresh air. Not leftover curry.
Pair that with ABT Pro Technology, and now your fridge is also fighting off bacteria and fungi before they even get a chance to grow.
This ABT Pro technology is the secret weapon inside the latest Lumiere Series 4 Door Convertible Refrigerator.
But more on that in a bit.
First, letâs look at some very familiar situations.
When ABT Pro technology Saves The Day
1. The Party Aftermath
You hosted friends over the weekend. Thereâs leftover butter chicken, a birthday cake, some onion salad, and a tub of homemade curd all sitting inside.
Normally, by Monday morning, opening your fridge feels like a crime scene. But with ABT Pro technology working overnight, the fridge air still smells clean. No panic. No cloth-on-nose drama.
2. The Forgotten Dabba
Thereâs always that one steel box we forget. Something from three days ago. When you finally open it, itâs not pleasant.
With regular fridges, the stink escapes into everything. Even sealed items smell weird.
With ABT Pro, that odour is neutralised fast. And more importantly, the bacteria from that spoiled food doesnât spread to your fruits and veggies.
3. The Summer Veggie Pile-Up
Indian summer means buying sabzis in bulk to avoid going out every day. But those veggies start sweating in the fridge. They wilt faster. The smell of methi and baingan takes over.
This is where ABT Pro technology really shines. It clears the moisture in the air and keeps that internal climate neutral. Which means fresher food for longer.
But wait. Why Havenât All Fridges Had This So Far?

Hereâs the thing.
Most fridges were built to cool your food. Not care for it.
That means basic cooling systems. Maybe frost-free technology. A light. Some shelves.
But todayâs Indian kitchen is different. We store food for more people. We meal-prep. We stock organic fruits. We keep chutneys, batters, leftovers, and side dishes in one place.
We need a fridge that understands that.
And thatâs exactly why the Lumiere Series stands out.
Now Letâs Look Inside: Lumiere Series 630L Refrigerator
This is not just a fridge. Itâs a lifestyle tool.
Hereâs what makes this model HRB-700KGU1 a total game-changer for Indian homes:
1. ABT Pro technology Treatment
This is an anti-bacterial layer built inside the air ducts. It slows down bacteria and fungus before they can affect your food.
2. 630 Litres of Space
This is big. Really big. You get 425L of regular fridge space, plus a 103L convertible section that can switch between fridge and freezer, and a dedicated 102L freezer
Need extra veggie space before a pooja? Done.
Need more freezer space during ice cream season? Done.
3. Smart Sense AI
This is where things get futuristic. The fridge learns your opening habits. It cools more during busy hours, and saves energy when not needed.
Itâs like your fridge knows when youâre home and when youâre out.
4. App-Controlled Food Management
Yes, you can track your food items, set expiry alerts, and share grocery lists with your family. All from your phone.
Perfect for parents, meal preppers, and anyone who hates food waste.
5. Spill-Proof Toughened Glass Shelves
Indian kitchens are full of pressure cookers, kadais, and milk pans. These shelves can take the weight, even if the curry pot is piping hot.
Is It Just About Freshness?

Not at all. Itâs about hygiene. About time-saving. About the mental peace that comes from knowing your food is safe and your fridge is clean.
You start to notice things:
- Fruits last longer
- Ice cream doesnât smell like aloo paratha
- No more panic cleaning before guests come over
- Kids start keeping their chocolates without complaining about âthat smellâ
Designed for Indian Kitchens
What I love most about this fridge is that it actually feels designed for how we live.
From storing festival sweets to preserving homemade pickles, from leftovers in steel dabbas to shopping in bulk every Monday this fridge just fits our lifestyle.
And the sleek black glass finish? It adds serious class to your kitchen without looking bulky.
Still Thinking?
If youâve ever opened your fridge and thought, âI should clean this,â even though you already did this is your sign.
Fridge odour is not your fault. Itâs a design flaw in older models.
Now that fridges like this exist, that problem is just unnecessary.
Final Thought: Let Your Fridge Feel Like Fresh Air
We often focus so much on how our food tastes. But what about how it smells before we eat it?
If your fridge doesnât smell clean, your food wonât feel fresh. And if your food doesnât feel fresh, no amount of reheating or seasoning can save it.
So this World Emoji Day, letâs say goodbye to đ and hello to đ.
Because a clean-smelling fridge is not a fantasy anymore. Itâs a setting. You just have to switch it on.
