I love the scent of Downy Fresh Protect products!

I love the scent of Downy Fresh Protect products.Super easy to use and left our clothing smelling amazing. I am now accustomed to using products like this but I think I am convinced. Note I did test the product for free but all opinions are my own. :)

Such an awesome product!

Seriously, I'm about to tear up thinking about how much Odor Shield has changed my life. I always had such a problem with body odor. But this product has completely changed that. I now can do any sweaty, dirty activity I want, but I smell fantastic afterward because of Odor Shield. Nothing else worked for me until this product came along. I tell EVERYONE about it LOL. I suppose some people think I'm crazy, but when a product changes your life like this one did for me, you just can't keep quiet about it! I tested this product, Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are my own!

Don't Take to the Laundromat

Since I don't have a washer and dryer at home, I go to the laundromat to use the machines there. I normally like to use liquid products for that reason. When I used this, I tried it a few times and noticed I had to use twice the recommended amount to actually get a scent fresh scent onto my clothes. I did follow the instructions and put the product in with the clothing rather than tossing it in the top of the machine at the laundromat. Then I tried it again at a friend's house and I got the nice fresh scent with the recommended amount after using the machine in her home. I did receive this product for free, but my opinion here is all my own.

Definitely an "extra" but worth it

I received this product to test for free, and that's honestly probably the only way I ever would have tried it because it's definitely an "extra." After trying it though, I am so surprised and will be purchasing to add it to my normal laundry routine. As soon as my clothes came out of the washer, they smelled so fresh. I was still in doubt when they came out of the dryer because I thought the heat was affecting it. It has been almost an entire day since I washed them and they smell so absolutely fresh. Once you try it, I promise, you will wonder how you were not using this product before:

Laundry is incomplete without this!

I am usually pretty simple when it comes to my laundry so I've never really used a product like this before. After the first use I was won over completely. My clothes came out so soft and fresh smelling. This scent was perfect because it was very fresh but not overly fragrant where it gives you a headache. Also, I have very sensitive skin but I was not irritated by this product. I received this product complimentary for testing and review purposes, all opinions are my own.

Love the scent and how long it lasts!

When I first received this product sample I was a little nervous because I don't particuarlIy care for scented laundry. After testing this product and putting my laundry away i have to say that i really like it. The scent when it goes through the wash is not as strong. Instead it is a light smell that makes our clothing smell clean and fresh. It was extremely easy to use and would recommend it to everyone! I received this product for free to review, my opinion and review is my own.

Keeps Your Laundry Fresh for Days!

I love the Downy beads! I've used the Downy Unstopables in the wash before, but not the Fresh Protect. I really like the April Fresh scent, and the smell is fairly strong just opening the package. I actually used less than the recommended amount, because I feel it's quite strong. One week later, and my sheets still smell fresh! Of course the fresh smell fades over time, but the lovely scent stays much longer than after washing with detergent alone. Clothes still smell incredibly fresh in my closet too. Downy beads are already part of my laundry-day regimen, so I will definitely be buying in the future! *I received this product free of charge for testing purposes. Thoughts and opinions are my own.

Great product, long lasting scent!

I love downy April Fresh and how long your clothes smell fresh. I've used these in my washer for clothes and also in my wax melt to freshen the room and the entire house smells like clean laundry. I received this product complimentary, all opinions expressed are my own.

Fresh smell

I received this as a free sample and was very excited to try it out as I have been curious for some time. When pouring the sample into the washer, I thought "oh good the smell is really nice and very strong". After washing/drying, I was a little disappointed that the scent wasn't as strong as I had hoped. You can smell it but it's very light. I will say that it does last days though. A towel I have used a few times still has a light scent. I only wish the scent was stronger.

Downy Fresh Protect smells amazing

Our son had eczema for years and we had to use unscented laundry soap and dryer sheets. He has now outgrown the eczema, but I had been hesitant to try scented products in our laundry. I had the opportunity to test Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, and was thrilled that my son didn't have a reaction to the scent, and our laundry smelled fresh and clean. The product is easy to use and I would definitely purchase it in the future. All opinions in this review are my own.
