kalimantan 6 Report post Posted July 19, 2011 ok i use washing machine , then follow by dryer to spin dry the clothes.Then follow by ironing.I would like to know how to make shirts or clothes smell refreshing.At which stage of the process above, should i be adding special smells or chemicals (maybe not the right word) so that shirts smell nice ?I think using sunlight to dry clothes will always smell nice, but i cannot predict nature.Is smell determine by washing powder or liquid detergent ? Or do i need to add some chemicals during the drying process in dryer ?Or during ironing, i should spray some stuffs and iron it ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bunnymummy 0 Report post Posted July 20, 2011 I don't use dryer cos I find that the clothes always smell funny afterward even if I use the dryer sheet. I can't hang my clothes in the sun but I find that I solved the problem of the stale smell by using Downy brand fabric softener. I like the blue bottle which is also anti-bacterial.

But to test at each stage what is the best for my family.dryer sheets - i'm currently using Purex and Bounce, both are nice - some brands offer various different scents, which i can usually sniff at through the box before deciding which to take.linen water - it's like the water you spray on clothes before you put the iron to fabric, just that linen water is scented.essence laundry detergent - essence is the brand; i believe this is referring to a fabric softener.

whisper 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2011 Just use 'Softlan' will do. Cheap and good. Make your clothes smell good and softer. You can get it from any supermarkets. Add it before the laundry just like adding the detergent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
