Lenor unstoppables
I bought the blue ones they smell lovely

Yes, the blue unstoppables from Lenor are amazing, mixed with Ariel excel gel (purple one) best smell ever and last weeks, even with a small amount.

Resurrection a 2012 laundry thread? Confused Grin

Ha, I didn't even realise!

Mine smells beautiful. I use the gold comfort.

The Unstoppables cost £5 a bottle!

The best smelling combination is persil and then comfort sensitive. Having said that I use Aldi liquid and comfort and it's close.

My boys ask me to use bold 2 in 1 as they claim that smells best.

I always use Fairy non-bio, ever since had children. I buy big box and it lasts and i also use Fairy fabric conditioner. I read Mumsnet recommendation about yellow Lenor, and tried it. Sadly I dont like artificial flowery summery smell. I like my washing smell like fresh air, and Fairy does it beautifully without being OTTed on odour.

I've always used Ariel as I love the smell, but agree with pp about line drying. Tumble dryinh

AwesomeSuperTasty · 26/11/2014 18:15

Oops. Tumble drying really kills off the fresh laundry smell.

scarletforya · 26/11/2014 18:17

The Arial liquitabs smell lovely.

If you use the same one all the time you stop smelling it so you need to swap it around. I think that the Fairy Honey and Almond conditioner and the pink Surf in a bottle smell the best - I love the stronger smelling products Flowers

I've recently discovered Milton do a laundry liquid and to me, when I use it, it makes the scent of the fabric softener stronger so it smells lively and fresh for ages!!

Give your machine a maintenance wash first to clean out the old bunged up powder. I use Dr. Beckman's every three months and monthly I put on a 90' degree wash on an empty machine. I find this helps to keep my washing smelling fragrant for longer.
