"I have been a Laundress customer for many years. I am sensitive to those commercial brands and the “lasting” smells. Those chemicals will cause your airways inflammation and sensitive. Skin problems will start to develop. I am under the care of a dermatologist and since I use these products my skin problems are controlled. Thank you for the gallon size! My husband fills the 32 oz bottles to be easy for my arthritis hands. Denise Higby"
"It has been a few years since I used the product. COVID times got the worst of me but so glad I am making this a must do once again. The scent is really luxurious, not overwhelming but it's presence is a gracious and sophisticated calling card of the freshness of any garment or my linens. Thank you!"
"Absolutely love the soft fragrance of this detergent. It’s hard to explain; it’s fresh yet has warmth to it. It is a light fragrance you can smell but not overpowering where it’s annoying or cloying. It’s a very gentle detergent and my clothing seems to like it. I can understand why this is a best seller."
"Signature Classic detergent does so much more than just clean clothes beautifully. Scent is one of our most powerful memory triggers, and living our daily lives wrapped in the wonderful 'Classic' fragrance beautifully connects the clothes we wear to the memories we make. Doing laundry has genuinely become a pleasant trip down memory lane."
"I can’t review something I never received. . I have contacted the company twice with a promise for a response 2 days after receipt of my request for this item not delivered but only a request to complete how I liked the way my request was handled. At this point I do not believe I will ever receive this item I paid for!"
"I finally invested in a large bottle to reduce waste. I wish the pump was configured to correspond to the amount per load (3 pumps = regular) otherwise no complaints!"
"Absolutely love the refreshing smell after washing my clothes with your detergent. And of course everything comes out nice & clean. I have been using your product for almost 10 years! And plan to continue!"
"The wonderful scent lingered not only on my clothes but also in my whole home. When I had guests over, the first thing they remarked on was how good my house smelt. I told them it was the laundry detergent!"
"Since switching to “the laundress” I get compliments everywhere I go! My clothes smell and look amazing!! Best products ever!! The beauty sleep is amazing for bedding and I use it on towels and it just creates a tranquil escape when you use it. All products are 10/10! Thank you"
"Amazing smell, feels very luxurious to use. Dispenser is easy to use. After the wash, scent lingers but it’s subtle, definitely not overwhelming to anyone who may be sensitive to that."
