Do you use scent boosters when washing your clothes, the granules that give your clothes an extra hit?

I am pretty obsessed with using them now :laugh:

Lenor seems to be the best one
Fairy is okay
Not tried any others yet

I have tried them and didn't notice any difference. I might as well have poured them straight down th e drain and cut out the middle man. Didn't see a voting option for that so voted yay because I have used them.

I use fabric softener but never used the scent boosters - I thought they would be a bit of a gimmick. Might give them a try.

No to scent boosters, yes to high-quality detergent. A decent detergent will do far more than any booster :thumbs:.

I do however recommend "Dettol antibacterial laundy cleanser" for your towel load, makes 'em extra fresh :hee:. Tbh the supermarket own-brand ones are just as good too. But the proper dettol one isn't that much more expensive anyway.

I'm such a good WFH house hubby :joker:.

Philistines, you use scent boosters in addition to fabric softener :fist: I always buy good quality laundry and dishwasher tabs find the own brands not so good

They are a crock of ****. :laugh:

If your fabric softener is good enough you won’t need them. They literally don’t do much, especially if you tumble dry your laundry (although nothing beats line dried clothes :love::
