When you walk past people and think ooo their clothes smell lovely… I want that! How do I do this please? I’m wanting fresh lovely smelling clothes. They’re clean and fresh now but I feel they don’t have a lasting softener smell to them.

Lenor spring awakening fabric softener, the outdoorable one. And I use bold lavender pods with it. Smells lovely

Please don’t, clothes need to just be clean, I don’t want to smell overly powerful chemical products on other people’s clothes it actually makes me feel queasy.

I use lenor and love the fresh smell.
