Light Long Lasting Freshness!!!
This is one of my favorite and was scent booster. It's easy to store not much spaces taken up. It's easy to use instructions that always at the bag or how much to use per load. It exhaust easily doesn't take long. It doesn't leave any residue behind. Smell really good especially the ocean mist. It's like a long lasting refresher. I definitely recommend getting.

Absolutely GUTTED. I was obsessed with this. I had people buying this, it was my everything everyone and I mean everyone always said I smelled so good until…THEY CHANGED THE FORMULA! Why do companies do this. I’m breaking out in hives tremendously now & I know it’s from this. Heartbroken.

Good, but won’t buy again
I really love the fresh scent of the beads. My bedding smells really good with it and it lasts, but there’s one think why I won’t buy it again. One time the beads didn’t dissolve completely and left stains on my clothes and sheets, it was gone with one more wash, but I don’t have a washing machine in my apartment and it literally costs money to wash already clean clothes just to get rid of the stains the scent booster made. Will not be buying again even though the scent is pretty amazing.

Id advise to get liquid than beads, saves more mon
Smells lovely, I lowkey be throwing more than the required amount on my washes, what, it gets the job done and the smell is heavenly. ( I know it’s toxic if you do too much 🫷). However, due to how much I put we no longer get beads but another liquid brand. The liquid ones last longer in my opinion.

Subtle fragrance but crisp
So fresh and crisp smelling in the bottle but does not cling to clothing as much as I would like the product to! If you are looking for a subtle scent, this would be ideal for you. I am a fan of a stronger fragrance so this one I am passing on!

A Must!
I absolutely love Downy Light Laundry Scent Boosters! They add the perfect amount of fresh scent to my laundry without being overpowering. I’m sensitive to strong fragrances, so I really appreciate how this formula is lighter and cleaner-smelling while still leaving my clothes noticeably fresh. My laundry comes out smelling crisp and soft, and the scent lasts for days in my closet. I also like that I can control how much I use depending on the size of the load. These have quickly become a staple in my wash routine, and I highly recommend them to anyone who wants a fresh scent without something too heavy.

Smells sooooo gooooood. I’m a gain girl, so anything that smells like gain has me sold, but this downy, omg! It overpowered my gain. I bought it because it was on sale, but I’m definitely buying again.

Best scent beads!
The best scent beads out there. The scent is long lasting and makes my clothes smell amazing. I try to stock up when I see them go on sale. The dryer sheets are great too.

Light & Refreshing scent
What I love about this product is the long lasting scent on my clothes. I love the smell of clean laundry and it makes that smell last longer on garments and towels. I have people stop and ask what products I use for my clothes and laundry. My son and I have sensitive skin and the scent is light and refreshing.

Intensely floral after wash
bought the scent because my favorite (cool cotton wash) is no longer carried at Target. This scent smells nice, sandalwood and "rain" in the can but after a wash with this the strongest lingering scent is lily. And it's overwhelming. it over powers my perfume and is detectable all day... maybe if I use a bit less in the wash it could be nice but it think it's much much much too floral for the whole family.
