[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these beads!!! I love alot of scent in my laundry. And I used the beads on a particularly smelly load of clothes. I loved how soft and fresh they came out smelling. And they stayed smelling fresh for days later. That kind of staying power is what I look for in a laundry product. And it will be perfect for the teenage loads of smelly laundry I do every week.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think that Downy Fresh & Protect Beads are wonderful. I washed a load of towels and forgot all about them for a couple of days in the washer. Needless to say, they smelled terrible! I tried to rewash them to get rid of the mildew smell, but it was still there after using my regular detergent. I remembered that I had the Downy Beads in my cupboard and added them to my wash. It was amazing! Not only did my towels smell wonderful, but my entire laundry room smelled like a Botanical Mist! I will buy these Downy beads again!

I have used other downy products and haven't had an issue but this product smells terrible, it has a very artificial smell i just can't get over. Also, since using it I have begin to itch and have red rash on my arms, back, and around my armpits. I can no longer use this product.

First off laundry comes out of dryer so great smelling and fresh. It makes me want to shower in this stuff!! I stay very active and all day long I could smell my fresh smelling clothes no matter if I was running around after my kids or actually running at the gym! Definitely worth the extra dime to smell extra fresh all day!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was skeptical about the commercials claiming that motion would set off the fresh scent from the downy fresh protect in wash odor shield beads.. I couldn't have been more wrong. They make my clothes not only smell great after they come out of the dryer, I also can smell the freshness when I wear my clothes!! I've already repurchased the downy and will continue to! #laundryinnovation #gotitfree

I received this product for free in return for a review, but all of my opinions are my own and this is an honest review. Our detergent just wasn't making our clothes smell as great as I wanted. I put these in the washer before adding the clothes and they smell AMAZING. They smell so clean, I almost don't want to get them dirty again. These are amazing and I will definitely buy them once I run out!! Great product!

This product is great! My clothes smell amazing, and it definitely lasts all day long. Very easy to use. My mom also enjoys this product a lot. It prevents sweat stains on top of wearing deodorant, but deodorant might not even be necessary if you're using this product.I did get this product for free from Influenster. This is all my honest opinion and I was not paid to write this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Downy beads in a large load of clothes. I have never tried any sort of beads or crystals in my laundry. I have always used liquid fabric softner. I was a little iffy to try them but they were great! They dissolved with no problem in cold water and left a wonderful fragrance in my clothes. I had clothes in my closet for over a week and I could still smell the lovely smell of the Downy beads. I would definately reccomend them to anyone. And I will be purchasing them in the future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the Downy Fresh & Protect Beads Botanical Mist beads had a nice smell. I used them with my children's uniforms. It gave them a subtle scent which is perfect! I could smell the beads into my living area from my laundry room. It was a pleasant surprise!

It left a lingering perfumed scent when I washed my gym clothes and towels. I guess it really DOES boost the scent. But if you get migraines from perfumes, you might want to use with caution. I received a free sample of Downey Fresh Protect Beads from Influenster for review, but all thoughts are my own.
