Downy Light Laundry Scent Booster Beads, White Lavender Scent, 24.0 OZ, In-wash fabric beads designed to be gentle with a light boost of scent, No Heavy Perfumes

Downy Light Laundry Scent Booster Beads are exactly what I’ve been looking for. The ocean scent is great—clean, fresh, and really refreshing without being overpowering or too perfumey. It gives clothes that just-washed, airy smell that isn’t too strong but still noticeable. I love that the scent lasts for days, especially on towels and bedding, while still feeling light and natural. They dissolve well in the wash and are super easy to use—just toss them in and go. If you want your laundry to smell fresh with a light, ocean-inspired scent, these are definitely worth trying.

first tried Downy Light Ocean Mist Laundry Scent Boosters as a sample from PinchMe, and I was so impressed that I ended up purchasing the full-size bottle on Amazon. The scent is light, fresh, and not overpowering—perfect for keeping my son’s plushie collection smelling clean and cozy without being too strong. It adds just the right touch of freshness that lasts, which is especially great for items that aren’t washed as frequently. Overall, I’m really happy with this product and will definitely keep buying it. It’s a great option if you’re looking for a gentle, long-lasting scent boost!

The scent booster beads are long lasting and have a fresh scent that lingers for weeks. I used it today on my son's clothes and I did hang dry. I could smell the clothes from downstairs! These are great for eliminating tough odors. This is great for clothes, linen etc. The product is easy to use by adding to washer before washing the clothes. The bottle size is huge and will last a longtime. It works well and my clothes feels soft. I'm not sure if it helps with stains but my clothes always comes out clean. I use other detergents with this. Good value here for a nice product.

This product is a great choice if you prefer a light and fresh scent on your clothes. It has an "ocean breeze" fragrance that is not overpowering, making it perfect for people who are sensitive to strong perfumes. It leaves laundry smelling clean for a long time and is very easy to use in the washing machine. Another advantage is that it is made without heavy perfumes, dyes, or phosphates, making it gentle on fabrics and skin.

Love the scent it gives to my clothes! Smells like sunshine and it lasts fairly long! So refreshing and unique!

Love this product! This size bottle will last for 2-3 months. It has a great scent and really adds freshness to the laundry. It is easy to use...pour into the cap to the marked line and toss in the laundry. There are no stains from the product so it dissolves well. Because the cap can be easily removed, we keep it on a shelf above the washer for safety. It is a great value for the money.

These scent beads are a great option if you want a clean, fresh smell without anything overpowering. The Ocean Mist scent is light and airy, with subtle notes like fresh air and soft florals, making it a nice everyday choice. They’re designed to be gentler than traditional scent boosters, made without heavy perfumes, dyes, or phosphates—so they’re a good pick if strong laundry scents bother you. They’re easy to use—just toss them directly into the washer—and they help provide long-lasting freshness (up to several times longer than detergent alone). On the downside, because they’re intentionally lighter, the scent may feel too subtle for people who prefer strong fragrance or need help with heavy odors like gym clothes or pet smells. Overall: A clean, subtle scent booster that’s perfect for everyday laundry—just not the best choice if you want bold, long-lasting fragrance.

I have used scent boosters for probably 7-8 years now, but only reviewing for the first time…mainly because I’ve religiously & adamantly used only natural laundry & cleaning products since my 6 months old daughter was diagnosed w eczema & quickly discovered harsh chemicals made a HUGE difference, but as our washing machine got older, things didn’t always smell fresh, even after super hot water wash. So, w her in her teens & able to instantly identify new irritants, thought I’d try some, & could leave off her items if necessary. If any other parents may be curious out of similar concerns….I’ve now tried just about every brand of scented laundry additive made, & was a long time gain moonlight breeze fan….LOVED the scent…sweet w/o being too much, perfumy, or inappropriate for my husband & teenage son, but ultimately found myself using way more than recommended in order for the scent to last. At some point, when my preferred gain was out in the store, I settled for Downy shimmer….which INSTANTLY became our favorite replacement. The scent lasted much longer & was a nicer pleasant gender neutral scent. Going through several periods of Shimmer being unavailable~w other’s questioning if it was discontinued online, I settled on Spring…it’s quite similar but a little sweeter? Honestly, they’re the only 2 scents I’d found I would even consider!! I came across a small bottle of the Shea Blossom in a store I normally don’t shop for that sort of thing, but it & another were new to me, so thought I’d just take a whiff out of curiosity….I’m the one smelling every candle on the aisle in Marshall’s & Tj Maxx because ya NEVER KNOW what gem you may find amongst 95%, or more, scents I wouldn’t burn if given to me free~I’m obviously quite picky about fragrances & don’t usually like anything ‘created,’ like fresh, rain, etc, but also don’t care for fabulous scents that disappear instantly either. Shea Blossom was an incredibly unexpected surprise!!! I wouldn’t say as strong or on the sweet side as Shimmer or Spring, I guess more floral, but an incredibly mild floral….almost a weak Gardenia. I mean, it is called “light,” but I wouldn’t know if the bottle didn’t say so because the performance isn’t a bit lighter! To me, it’s just a more natural, earthy scent….idk the right words exactly except, not as forced. Clothes smell exactly as you’d expect coming out of the wash, & occasionally I use a little extra on items that won’t be used soon. **an important note…using a front loader, I often add a bit of vinegar to the softener compartment because it helps loosen dirt, strip odors & softens, while also helping the drum stay cleaner, but it doesn’t affect the scent whatsoever! Smells equally great w or w/o vinegar** Fortunately, the Gain boosters didn’t irritate her skin when using a little less than recommended, & the Downy boosters have not irritated her at all, yet Downy fabric softener has caused mild irritation while Tide sets her skin on fire!!!! Knowing it’s definitely more chemicals than I’ll allow at any other time, I feel reassured it’s not bad enough to require caution, & I get to treat myself to a rare bonus of not worrying when I pull out long stored linens for guests that they may need a fresh wash first (I have actually added small plastic pouches w some beads & w holes punched throughout also in items stored in fabric bins long term to help due to a musty smell infiltrating the closet from the crawl space beneath) I have now solely converted to Shea Blossom permanently & even subscribed to monthly delivery. And, now that my daughter is grown & added her 2nd child recently, she has quite rolling her eyes at my use of natural products & converted herself, though she too has chosen to make an exception for Downy Scent Boosters, though opting for a different scent (I think the Light Ocean Mist), & using 1/2 the recommended amount, which she says is perfect as quickly as items are used/worn & therefore washed often. But she readily substitutes mine when she’s out! Doesn’t use on her 5 months old baby, but has been using for her 5 years old son since 1 or so when she also switched from the Gain brand. Newly tried natural detergents have come & gone due to reactions, but Downy has proven trustworthy & continued to be consistently gentle & non irritating to her highly sensitive skin, as well as her young children’s (the baby sleeps on her sheets, & mine, & has extremely close contact w our clothes. Of course EVERYONE is different, but I would recommend at least trying if you have skin concerns because our experience has been great, & that’s rarely true outside green products! And, if you’re not a big fan of overwhelming or intensely permeating smells, I’d also recommend Shea Blossom, & hopefully you too can finally enjoy a mild fragrance boost that’s typically next to impossible to find

Perfect product lovely scent

J'adore ce produit. L'Odeur correspond à ce que j'aime. [Fleur de Karité] J'ai donné un 3 pour la longévité, car l'odeur ne reste pas assez longtemps à mon goût. Nonobstant cela, je confirme que c'est un produit très intéressant qui réduit la quantité d'assouplisseur utilisé. En fait, si je mets des perles, je ne mets pas d'assouplisseur.

Smells wonderful!

I love all laundry beads. The lavender is quite refreshing and I'll buy this one again 💜

Pleasant scent! Will not be overpowering if used in appropriate amounts
