    I didnt find the scent as strong as was advertised. After the wash there was a slight scent, but nothing near what was described. I beleive these are easily overpowered by your laundry detergents scent.

    I have tried these little pink things that look like candy ( keep up high on a shelf if you have kids) I followed the directions to the letter and I really have not noticed a difference in comparison to just my regular Vanilla Scented Fleecy. If you have a large family using this product could get quite costly. It's a buyer beware situation.

    does this stuff make your clothes smell good!!!
    Unfortunetely it is expensive and the bottle gets empty fast.
    They offer a few smells and they are easy to use. Just empty a cap full in your washing machine and smell!

    I received it as a sample - I was very impressed after I used it - although the smell is a bit strong, I liked the smell so it did not bother my family or me.
    However, although I have never been allergic to anything in my entire life - after sleeping on my sheets, I woke up to a very itchy body, covered in hives.... I have used the regular Downly liquid fabric softener before, and never had any problems. Not sure what ingredients the unstopables are made of, but it did not agree with me.

    I got a free sample of Downy Unstoppables and decided to wash all my bedding with it, since all i heard was great reviews. They said to use the whole package, and i followed all directions as said. Washed and dried and bed remade i loved the way it smelled and the softness of it. BUT when i finally went to bed i found that the scent was very strong to me and actually made me nauseous, tho i boyfriend didn't seem to mind it at all.
    If you are sensitives to scents like i am i'd recommend not using it or using reduced quantities. If not go for it!

    I used Downy Unstopables on my bed sheets. i was expecting better results, and incredible smell. The scent wasn't bad, but I didn't see much of a difference to using detergent alone.

    I used more than a cap full of Unstopables, but next time I'll save my money and just use a little extra detergent.

    i find this product very strong in smell. however, it doesn't last in terms of smell after it's dried in the dryer. i've repeatedly gotten samples in the mail and each time i used them, it smelled great out of wash, but not after the dryer. i wouldn't ever buy this product.

    ok, i love this product.... but i give it only 3 stars in effectiveness because in the wintertime i can't use that because it just wouldn't work!!!
    my clothes and linen smell so awesome after i wash it with unstopables BUT ONLY if i dry them outside in the air. if i give my clothes in the dryer the smell is gone. nothing is left of it.
    so, since i dry my clothes in the dryer in the wintertime i will not use this product.

    it only works for me air dried,it has a great smell, but i don't use the suggested amount, that would be too much and the scent to strong for me. i like to wash my bed linens with it, dry it outside in the sun and wind and put it back on my bed, it smells like heaven for me. (i use half the amount in my washer,i tried the full cap,like they say on the package,but it was much too strong for me).

    i really wish this stuff would work in the dryer as well. i also would like to see some more different fragrances.
    i also think it's too expensive so i'm really looking where i use it for,i really like it on sportswear or bed linen.
    the scent last for me about 3-4 days i would say, then it's gone.
