We're disappointed to hear the scent didn't last as long as you'd expect, since quality is really important to us! One little tip we have, to help the scent last, is using a lower heat setting on your dryer--this can help the scent stay in the clothing, to last even longer. We're always here to help, so if you'd like to share more about this, you can give us a ring at: (800) 688-7638 anytime! - The Downy Team
