Can't beat the great smell!

I haven't used Downy in a long time but was excited to get a free sample from Influenster and gladly started pouring some in my washing machine with each load. The smell took me back to my teen years as my best friend always smelled like Downey's fabric softener. I did find a few greasy looking spots that I'm guessing were from the fabric softener but it didn't do it the second load so it could have just been a mishap. All in all a great product. A bit pricey in store but there are always coupons floating around and it really is much better than the off brands!

This product smells good, makes clothes soft

This makes my clothes smell so good and fresh! I normally do not buy scented liquid fabric softener but this stuff was so nice! It have a nice natural smell to my clothes after drying. I received a free sample of this fabric softener from influenster Vox box but all of these opinions are my own. I would recommend this product to others. I mean, you can never really go wrong with downy anyways :)

Not the original scent

I have used Downy April Fresh fabric softener for longer than I can remember, and have NEVER considered using anything else. The last bottle that I bought smelled awful - not clean or fresh and definitely not the same scent that I've used for 20 odd years. I went back to the store the next day and opened and smelled every bottle I could reach. They all stink. Bring back the original scent Downy!

Love smelling fresh!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Downy April Fresh Liquid Fabric Enhancer makes my clothes smell great, but as an added bonus it doesn't make them feel filmy or weighed down. Most of the fabric softeners I have used make me feel as though my clothes have a film and therefore I havent generally used them frequently. This one is different! Excellent long lasting scent, yet clothes still feel "fresh".

Loving it!

I received Downy® Fabric Softener for free, but all opinions are my own. I absolutely adore Downy. It leaves my clothes feeling soft and smelling fresh. I especially love using it for my sheets. Crawling into bed is bliss! Dreamland comes quick and is filled with a hint of Spring. I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys the smell of pure freshness and the softness of a kitten!

Downy Fabric Enhancer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot say anything bad about Downy Fabric Enhancer! No more static cling which is a big plus for me, Everything smells so great my towels look and smell great everything looks and smells so much better. I've noticed a brighter look to my clothes and linens also.

Tried and True Downy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always loved the Downy brand and have used it almost exclusively for years. I was excited to try the new and improved version of Downy, so I used it for the last week on all my loads of laundry. I received the April Fresh scented Downy and to be honest, it’s the scent I have always liked the least. It’s a generic scent that many brands carry and it’s a little old lady smelling. Barring the unfavorable scent though, I think the improved Downy is... the same. Perhaps the difference is just more subtle than I expected. I purposely watched my bed sheets so that I would have something I would be in contact with every day for a week, but I didn’t notice much difference between the old Downy I normally use and the new version. Of course the sheets smelled nice and kept their fresh scent for a long time, but I would have expected that from the old version too. As far as wrinkles go, maybe it’s done it’s job better, I can’t say that anything stood out to me though. I typically leave things in the dryer for a while once it’s done drying, and nothing seemed any less wrinkled than usual. I didn’t have an unfavorable experience, it’s just that it was unremarkable. I felt like my old Downy does the same job as the new one I tried. It doesn’t change my opinion of Downy, I will continue to buy it. I just don’t think I would spend extra (if this improved brand costs extra) on the bells and whistles that it offers when I’m perfectly happy with the job that Downy has already done for me all these years.

Subtle scent - works great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this Downy fabric softener. It has a subtle, clean, light scent that clings to fabrics. Love picking up a freshly washed towel and have it have that nice clean scent - best on sheets too! This Downy softener is also great on static. I haven’t used dryer sheets while using this softener and my clothes come out static free and softer than ever! I’m looking forward to continuing to use this to see if it truly protects my fabrics and to continue experiencing soft, clean smelling, static free clothing!

Seems to do what they claim

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Downy has quite a few claims regarding the benefits: Softens, freshens, reduces wrinkles, reduces fuzz and pills, prevents static, keeps colors bright. On some it is hard to tell if makes a substantial difference but it seems to work. I washed a sweater recently that previously came back from the cleaners a touch faded and a little pilly. The next time I washed it myself and used Downy. It looked good after the wash. I was afraid it would further fade or pill more but it did not and if anything looked a little better. In general, the reduced static and fresh scent are very noticeable benefits. While hard to tell if there are less wrinkles, and reduced fuzz and pills, I am not noticing wrinkles and fuzz/pilling problems so it is difficult to argue that it does not work. For the more obvious benefits alone it is worth it. A little goes a long was as opposed to some of the cheaper fabric softeners out there and if you get some of the other benefits over time it is an added bonus.

The smell is a winner alone!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this fabric "enhancer" when hand washing clothes on some of my more delicate workout gear, and I was really shocked on how good it smells. It was really easy to use and you really only need a little bit of it. When my clothes hung to dry, they were completely soft, even softer than if I dried them and the elastic returned to normal as if I didn't wear them. I'm not allergic to fragrance, but you may want to be aware of the particularly strong (but delightful!) smell if you happen to be.
