Not sure about anywhere else, but here in QLD clothes smell damp if left out too long, and they can't be left in the machine for any lengh of time either after washing. Try using the Aldi softner Anco soft iron easy (2 litre bottle) - the white one seems to be better than the purple :confused::eek: ALso, add the pink Vanish stain remover to every wash. |
Re: good smelling washing powder
We use Persil for sensitive skin. Add Vanish Napisan to every wash. And use the blue bottle Cuddly softener.
Clothes are dried outside nearly all year round (not in a dryer). All our clothes smell lovely and fresh. But we live in Perth not Queensland, i.e. low humidity. |

Why are all the fabric softeners named after members of the seven dwarves?

Re: good smelling washing powder
I use OMO which is supposed to be Persil with a cap of napisan. I also use Woolies conditioner. Have ran out so can't check the name but they are the essential oils ones which remind me of comfort.

Re: good smelling washing powder
I use Cold Power and Coles own Fabric conditioner. I use the ultra sensitive.
I recently gave some clothes away to our neighbour as they were too small for my dd and apparently one of the children commented how lovely the clothes smelt. |
Re: good smelling washing powder
Used Omo (Persil) Sensitive when we first arrived but have switched to Earth Choice. It cleans well and the max temp I use is 30C. I've never used fabric softeners.
(In fact all my household cleaning products are Earth Choice, and they smell great.) |

Re: good smelling washing powder
Ive made it my mission to find a nice washing powder and fab conditioner. I am currently using Aldi Anco soft ultra Jasmine & Ylang Ylang $2.29 for 500ml. By far the smelliest I have used. I use Cold Power too and always line dry.
Jen - When we unpacked our bedlinen/towels etc after 3 months of being cooped up in the container the 1st thing I noticed too was the gorgeous smell, hmmm:) |
Re: good smelling washing powder
We use Duo and Cuddly softner, our washing smells nice!:)

Re: good smelling washing powder
Add a few drops of eucalyptus oil to the rinse. That way you'll come up smelling of gum trees instead of roses.
