Amazingly wonderful lasting scent!!!!

I received samples of this product via Influenster. I've always liked Downy, but was a bit skeptical of this product, but I have since purchased my own bottle because the scent lingers in the fabrics of my washed garments for quite some time. I would recommend this product.

Addicting smell

Let me start by saying I have a unhealthy addiction to fabric softeners especially Downy. I love the way it smells and enjoy smelling it when I put on my clothes. I got a sample to try out and immensely enjoyed it, I even caught my husband smelling his shirt. It left my clothes feeling soft as always. I tested the Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are my own.

Easy to use after I read the directions.

I received this product for free in return for an honest review. I had wanted to try Downy beads for awhile and was glad I was able to participate in this test. I received 3 packs of Downy beads. I used them a few days ago and really liked them. However, at first I was a bit confused about how to use them, because the package directions were a bit confusing. It said to empty packet into washer, but I missed the “empty” part and wasn't sure if I needed to cut the pack open or not. I put on my reader glasses and saw that I was supposed to cut the package and pour the beads into the wash. I would definitely recommend Downy beads.

Smalls Amazing

I am new to in was fresheners and I really love the concept. These smell so fresh and amazing. I only used a portion of the recommended amount. Although the scent in the end was not as strong in this case, I was happy with the results. I received a free sample of this product to review.

Fresh smell

I received this as a free sample and was very excited to try it out as I have been curious for some time. When pouring the sample into the washer, I thought "oh good the smell is really nice and very strong". After washing/drying, I was a little disappointed that the scent wasn't as strong as I had hoped. You can smell it but it's very light. I will say that it does last days though. A towel I have used a few times still has a light scent. I only wish the scent was stronger.

I still believe the liquid formula is better

I used it in 3 different occasions, I feel no different as if i hadnt used downy, i follow the instruction by adding it and the beginning and then i did it, like i regularly do on the second wash. It doesn't have a particular smell and it didn't made my clothes soft either. I do agree at it helps with bad outdoors but not more than the liquid version, I also didn't like that i found some left over on the washing maching, . I tested Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are your own.

Keeps Clothes Smelling Clean

Downy Fresh Protect is a great product for those who want their clothes smelling April Fresh. I enjoyed the scent on my clothes, those the scent coming from the packaging was a little much. I don't know if I would use it all the time, but for the occasional wash, I would.

this product is great!!!!!

i love this product it leaves your clothes smelling fantastic, even after taking it off the dryer. Usually with similar products that i have tried once i put the clothes in the dryer and take them out the smell its just not the same. with this one the clothes stay smelling fresh. The only thing is that its a bit over priced

This product has a fantastic light clean scent!

This product has a fresh clean scent that last days on my clothing! It's easy to use and a little goes a long way. I recently received these free for testing purposes, but all opinions are my own. I am impressed with this product and will definitely purchase it in the future.
