Relaxing scent and exceptional softness without le

​"I absolutely love Downy Infusions Calm; it has become a staple in my laundry routine. The first thing that stands out is the incredible scent of lavender and vanilla, which leaves a truly relaxing feeling on my clothes for a long time. The consistency of the liquid is perfect, making it very easy to follow the usage instructions and pour the exact amount without any mess. The packaging is ergonomic and easy to handle even with one hand. Most importantly, it leaves absolutely no residue on the garments, keeping them extremely soft and smelling fresh. Highly recommended for anyone looking for that extra touch of comfort!"

Second time I've bought t his product line. Was very disappointed with the change in the product. If you've purchased more than once in past 8 months just know they have changed the scent to be much lighter. you're not imagining it. i chatted with Downy on line and they told me they had changed the product to take out the heaviness. They have thousands of likes on the first scents but i think you may see reviews starting to change. I'll stick with counting on my detergent for freshness because its not working in this new lighter scent. i bought this scent specifically for sheets and dog bedding washes. Doesn't add a smell now vs original products before they weakened the scents.

Leaves My Laundry Smelling Amazing!

I absolutely love the smell of this fabric softener! The lavender and vanilla bean scent isn't overpowering but it lasts on your laundry for a long time, leaves them soft, and keeps them looking good!

My towels smell so good

Downy fabric softener stands out for its well-balanced formulation that effectively softens fabrics while providing a pleasant fragrance. The product’s durability is notable, as the softness and scent tend to last through multiple washes, enhancing the overall freshness of clothing over time. In terms of application, Downy is user-friendly and easy to incorporate into both standard and high-efficiency washing machines. It disperses evenly during the rinse cycle, ensuring consistent softening without the need for additional effort. The formulation is designed to minimize residue, which means clothes come out clean and soft without any sticky or greasy feel, preserving the fabric’s natural texture. Regarding value, Downy offers a competitive price point considering its performance, making it a cost-effective choice for households seeking long-lasting softness and freshness. The combination of durability, smooth application, minimal residue, and a carefully crafted formula makes Downy a reliable fabric softener that delivers excellent value for everyday laundry needs.

Great for sensitive skin!

I have very sensitive skin when it comes to laundry detergents. This does not irritate it at all. I love the smell. Very true to its name. The packaging is pretty and the measuring cup being a flower is cute. It does last a long time on the clothes. And the bottle says 83 loads but I dont get that many. I may be using too much in my laundry but oh well.

Love the smell of Calm Downy. It lingers lightly.

Very disappointed to see that Fred Meyer/Kroger i no carrying it. I love it so much and don't want to use any other. I love the lavender with vanilla scent that is not overwhelming but a sweet and gentle scent that lingers in just the right amount and length of time. Don't stop making it please!! It is the only one I use!

My favorite; highly recommended product.

The scent of this product is perfect and long lasting. A bottle lasts me as expected l, clear instructions are provided for use and the product works as expected which is very effective. This is my favorite favorite fabric softener and has a long lasting scent even after a day or wearing.
