Reviews

Great product!

"I use this on almost all my wool and cashmere sweaters, dresses and scarves. About to do a deep dive to make sure these treasured items stay fresh in the summer months. Follow their instructions. I use mesh bags for my sweaters— some of which are Talbot’s classic cashmere v necks I inherited from my mother. I washed a Brooks Brothers wool and silk lined dress and it came out beautifully. Also my classic BB cashmere cowel necked dress. The product is genius. All of these things would have been dipped in chemicals at a dry cleaner. I just need to find a good dry cleaner who will take care of my wool coats. Thank you to the creators of this product at The Launderess."

Great for your delicate fabrics

"I really like the cedar smell. I feel like it helps deter any insects from wanting to go near your wool or cashmere often times I’ll use this for a hole load when I’m washing my delicate stuff and bags with other cotton materials."

Alyssa (5/5)

just great

"Love love love this stuff. I have been using it for years and my cashmere sweaters are SO soft! I have a bunch of cashmere travel wraps and occasionally loan one to a house guest and they always ask the brand of the wrap. Not the wrap, it's the laundress that makes them so soft and comfortable. I think it is a healthier way to clean your clothes as well."

ken K. (5/5)

Performs well, but. . .

"So far, I've hand laundered three cashmere sweaters in the Wool & Cashmere Shampoo. The shampoo gave a gentle was and the sweaters felt soft afterwards. I'm glad I bought the measuring cup or I might have added too much. My only complaint - I expected a slight cedar smell to aid in warding off moths, but the shampoo does not smell like cedar (even though that's the scent I bought)."

works great

"very glad to have come across this. smells good, cleans well, and leaves my wool items soft. gentle enough on cashmere sweaters in my experience."

Jay (5/5)

Love Laundress. Wool is now washable! Yay

"Love love love not having to dry clean my wool blankets and sweaters! Great product!"

Catherine D. (5/5)

Great scent

"Excellent for sweaters"

Annemarie R. (5/5)

I miss the old scent

"The older formula, which wasn’t clear but a bit occluded and creamy had a much more pleasant and pronounced scent that I very much prefer. I wish at least that the scent could be recreated if not the older formula."

Wool & Cashmere Shampoo

"Works great on our merino wool socks and Winter wool accessories (hats, gloves, scarves). Do wish the scent was a tad stronger, as it smells nice in the bottle but is very subtle & hardly noticeable on the cleaned items."

C B. (5/5)

Fantastic!

"Works great, smells great, and can be used in your HE machine. Buy it, you won't regret it!"

Q&A

Cotton sweaters ok?
Hi Jan - Thank you for reaching out! The Wool & Cashmere Shampoo is a gentle, enzyme-free formula and can be used on cotton. It's great for washing finer cottons such as Pima and Egyptian Cotton. However, if your cotton sweater needs a deeper clean from time to time, it's ok to use an enzyme-based detergent, such as our Signature Detergent.
My concerns with this product is about its effectiveness to cleanse superficial stains and elimante sweat bacteria. It’s antibacterial?
Thanks for your question! Our Wool & Cashmere Shampoo is made with a proprietary formula designed specifically for wool, cashmere, and knits. It effectively lifts stains, everyday soils, and odor-causing buildup while protecting the delicate fibers. We avoid antibacterial additives because the harsh chemicals often used can damage wool, weakening fibers and diminishing natural benefits like softness, moisture-wicking, and temperature regulation. Our formula keeps your knits clean, fresh, and long-lasting without compromise.
The Wool and Cashmere Shampoo eliminates sweat bacteria and bad odor? Some people say it doesn’t because formula changed, is weak and just masks the bad odor. Do you know Revolve.com sell your products? It’s an authorized seller? Thank you
Our enzyme-free Wool & Cashmere Shampoo was specially formulated with biobased ingredients and gentle surfactants for a beautiful clean on knits like wool, cashmere, and merino. This formula specifically is 2x concentrated for more value per wash!
Hi!!! this product eliminates sweat bacterias and bad odor? Some people say it doesn’t because ingredients in the formula are weak to do all that and masks the bad odor instead eliminate it. Also I want to know if Revolve.com is an authorized retailer of your products?
Thank you for your question! This product is specifically designed to gently cleanse wool, cashmere and other knit fibers with an enzyme-free formula that protects the integrity of the material. Fragranced with a light cedar scent, not meant to mask, but to elevate the ritual of washing. You can shop our products at Revolve as well!
