this is a great smelling product.

I love these little downy sprinkles, they smell so good. I recieved little sample packets and I loved how easy it was to just throw in the washer with my clothes, but I could see how having a resealable container would be nice. you can add as little or as much scent sprinkles as you want depending on how strong you want them to smell. I really love this product and how it makes my clothes smell. I recieved this product complimentary for reviewing purposes, but my opinions are all my own. I would recommend this product.

Smells great!

I am a zookeeper, so as you can imagine, my clothes usually smell pretty bad. I used these in-wash beads on a load of my work uniforms, and they smelled great! They are very quick and easy to use, which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend this product. I received this product free for testing, but all opinions are my own.

Smells and works wonderfully!

I received a sample of the fresh protect April-fresh in wash odor shield and used it on clothes and sheets that had a weird smell from sitting in an old drawer for a long time that regular laundry detergent alone couldn't get out. Now they came out smelling fresh and clean! I will definitely purchase this again!

This product it's the best!

I like it when my laundry smell fresh and clean and the fragrance lasts for more than just a couple of days. It only takes a small amount of Downy fresh protect beads to make laundry a very nicely scent. I test the downy fresh protect beads for free but the opinions are my own.

Wonderful smell!

I love the way my laundry smells after using the Downy Fresh Protect April Fresh In-Wash Odor Shield. The clothes smell so clean, perfect for fresh sheets and towels. I'm so glad that I was able to try the Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are my own.

This product smells fantastic!

I love these downy beads. They really making washing clothes 'fun'. The light pink color is cute and the way your clothes smell afterward is amazing; you can actually smell the scent through the packaging which is a huge plus so that yoi have an idea of what your clothes will smell like. I'm a huge fan of good smelling products, I am always looking for the trinkets scent to make my belongings smell good. This product is highly recommended by me. I tested Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are my own.

Fabulous!

I absolutely loved this product! I frequently work out at a busy gym and often my gym clothes still reek after a regular wash cycle. These beads eradicated that pesky smell with a single wash, and I did not even have to use warm or hot water. *received free sample of product, but all opinions are my own*

Great if you need it, but I find unnecessary

These beads smell nice, and are strong. I was worried the pink would stain my clothes, but they dissolved and caused no issues. I think they're a good idea if you need them, but I have very few items of clothing that actually need to be washed in such fragrance. When clothes were dried, the scent was pleasant and not overpowering. I gave 3 stars simply because I try to avoid extra chemicals and synthetic fragrances in products as much as I can. I can't see adding this extra step into my budget and routine. *I tested my Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are my own*

This does what it claims to do.

I am not much of fan of scented anything when I do my laundry. I like my clothes to smell like nothing, I do buy scentless detergents and sheets. Which the reason I stay away from fabric softener since it always has a scent. I did try these since it has order protection and when you like in desert like I do, you tend to sweat almost year around. I tried on my most used clothes, which are my gym and work clothes to see if they hold up to test. I was completely surprised that my clothes did not smell like sweat at all, throughout the day I kept taking quick sniffs of my work clothes and after a two hour training session still smelled like April fresh. You just shake the beads in your washer as you would normally add detergent and done. I would recommend this to anyone that needs 24 hour odor block but the only down side for me is the scent. If these come without a scent, I will buy. I tested your Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are your own.

saves new parents life:)

I've never bought the downy beads before. I always wanted to but never did. I wasn't sure if we needed them. Well that was until we had our little boy. Things sure did change once he started spitting up and pooping everywhere! Sorry for the tmi but it's the frigging truth. Babies stink things up for sure. And God help you if you don't wash the milk stained clothes right away. That's where these handy dandy downy beads come in full play. They take that odor right out and replace that gross smell with a much better one and it's not too over powering or fake smelling. You know what I mean, like the smell of a cheap candle vs a Yankee candle. These are the Yankee candles of the laundry department. I received them from influenster to review and my opinions are certainly my own as I'm sure you can tell. I ran out of them quickly and have already purchased 3 more. They are really great. Highly recommend
