Poll question: Best smelling laundry detergent?
What's your favorite? I'm including major brands, but there are so many, feel free to add your own.
I think original Tide smells odorgasmic!

2. I wash my kids' stuff in scent/color-free detergent, too.
My boys seem to get irritated skin from the perfumey stuff.

6. I haven't tried that one.
I usually buy cheaper stuff, but every once in awhile I splurge and buy Tide.
My husband hates floral scents. Perhaps I should keep some lavender Tide on hand for passive-aggressive manifestations of discontent with him.

7. All Free. No scent, no colors, nothing.
When the clothes come out of the dryer, they smell clean, not fragranced.

I went to All Free when I started breaking out in hives, and it cleared the situation right up.

9. Gain...
a bud of mine just gave me a big jug of Gain...and I was amazed at how good it smelled. Smells a lot better than the cheap Xtra detergent my cheap ass usually buys.

10. Persil
It's a laundry soap from Germany. It's fragrance free and biodegradable. Expensive as hell, but recommended by the manufacturer of my washing machine.

13. A Tide story.
Way back when the ex and I were doing the prenatal checkup thing, we overheard several other pregnant women discussing their cravings for Tide detergent.

15. We've been using ALL fresh rain scented detergent and softener.
It smells pretty good....
Although for a while we were using Tide Simple Pleasures which is really nice.

16. Biovert,
a Canadian company. It's a very light scent.

I dislike most laundry scents - they're far too strong.
