[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me preface by saying that I don't generally use a fabric softener product in the wash, just dryer sheets. The product was easy enough to add to the washer, and smelled great out of the package. By the time the rinse cycle was done, I barely smelled it on the clothing. After they were dried (both by dryer and on the clothes rack), I didn't notice the Downy scent at all, nor did the clothing and towels seem any different than how I normally wash.

I used this product on my whites wash - towels, underwear, and clothes - and it left a very faint smell. I don't think it really deodorized the clothes or made much of a difference. I tested Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are my own.

I loved the individual packets I received, they made it really easy to measure! The scent is strong and definitely long lasting but it was just a bit too floral for me. I'd love an ocean scent. Note: I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think Downy Fresh Protect Active Fresh In-Wash Odor Shield worked great for my husbands clothes as, he is a plumber, they came out smelling wonderful and feeling great. Thanks Downy for another great product and thanks to Bzzagent for another great trail. I can't wait to use this product more often.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive been wanting to try these forever but i thought the pods were ok and I was a little bit disappointed when I got the campaign, I was expecting atleast 3 pods in each pouch. I also live in hot area and my laundry room usually gets very humid and I guess there was a hoke in the pouch that ruin a tide pod most of the product was gone when I opened the package. The downy beads on the other hand, I did not like at all. My son and I never have problems with liquid downy but this irritated our skin. I also noticed that there was still some soapy residue on my clothes that could have also irritated my skin. I honestly wouldn't say that these are the best products but they're ok if you're not having the irritation but i would rather stick to the old liquid tide and downy route then spending a fortune on pods that will melt in the laundry room and leaving me having to buy anti itch creams.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a working dad I need to make sure that my clothes are clean and smells good.Because i travelled so i expose a different bacteria outside.But using downy im already sute that i am fresh,neat and smells good .Protect from different odor in the whole day.so,i am not afraid to mingle because i know they will smell me in nice...

Has a college student I think this is a great product it actually keeps your clothes fresh for longer so you don't need dryer sheets which saves you money. I really love these things. I tested the Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are your own.,

Clothes with the nice fragrance.. everyone loves that.. this product does the same. Fresh fragrance which makes you feel good when you wear your washed clothes. I got this product for testing for free but for sure will buy it again and recommend to family and friends too. Reviews are only mine after using the product.

This stuff is great! I love the touch of Febreze especially. But the scent is a bit strong for me. Maybe I will try using less on the next load but besides that, its an awesome product. I recieved this product free for test purposes but does not effect my opinion.

I have to say, at first I was skeptical. I honestly thought it was just another money making scheme and was totally an unnecessary product. But after having tried the product, I am completely impressed. It truly is like deodorant for you clothes. I love using it during the summer when you get hot and sweaty the second you walk out the door. I tested your Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are my own.
