[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm the main person in my household that does most of the laundry so I thought I'd give the Downy Fresh Protect Beads a shot. Keep in mind I have a husband that goes to the gym daily then goes to work usually ending up working doubles so I need something to keep the laundry smelling fresh and clean! I was pleasantly surprised with product! It was easy to use (just throw the beads right into the washing machine before you start it) and when the laundry was finished even after drying the clothes smelled great and my home smell like clean laundry :) I was happy that the smell was subtle and not overpowering but also didn't fade right away which was nice because the cent lasted all day. Look forward to using this product again!

I've always loved the smell of laundry right out of the dryer, but this usually fades within a day or so. I love the way Downy Fresh Protect keeps my sheets smelling fresh for several days until the next wash! I tested these Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are my own

I really enjoyed using this product. My clothes smell great even after being washed again without the beads. They were easy to use and very effective. I would recommend them for smelly gym clothes or towels especially. I tested these Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are my own.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have seen these in series many time before but I thought that would not be as strong scent but it was when better than the liquid Downy. I think the smell of this one is much stronger compared to the liquid a few beads give you a lot mor scent is amazing. It's also very easy to use ,I only used half of package on a medium load and the scent was really noticeable with only half of packet and clothes were soft to not static.

I really love the Downy fresh protects, the beads keep your clothes so fresh. All I do is put them in my washer, then start the cycle, add the detergent. The Downy fresh protects make the whole house smell wonderful. Disclaimer: this product was sent to me for free

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product smelled nice when I poured the beads into the washer. But when I took the clothes out of the dryer, the clothes did not smell any more. My clothes were not particularly smelly before I wash them, so I am not sure if this will shield my clothes from stinky smells.

I have never used a product like this in bead form ever, but I love! Besides getting our clothes clean and keeping them soft, this product has our clothes smelling amazing for days! I'm so glad I finally found a product that I love! I tried my Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked using the Downy Fresh and Protect Beads. I had to read the directions because I had never used laundry beads before. I was worried they would clump up and get stuck in my clothes, but none of that happened, thankfully! My clothes were very fresh smelling, and clean feeling. The smell wasn't as strong as the Tide PODS, but actually a kind of softer smell, which was quite nice.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the Downy Fresh & Protect Beads Botanical Mist is AWESOME! If your like me you end up washing your blankets a lot more through out the month then you have to! Not anymore! It has been a week and my blanket still smells like its fresh out of the dryer. What I would want to know before I get this product would be how long is it suppose to last, and I would like to know what it smells like. With a product that is suppose to last for a while, knowing if I like the smell is an important part of my decision making process. Downy definitely got their scents down, because this product smells great! Everyone should try it at least once! I know I am again! Next challenge will be the dog's bed! :)

I love that these little beads can just be added to your washer for an extra touch of softness and amazing smell! I just used these on my sheets and you could smell it from a few feet away. Super inviting and realxing. Can't wait to sleep in my sheets tonight!
