Laundry Sauce - Pods & Scent Booster Bundle (Indonesian Patchouli)

The Saffron scent is the best out of the two scents I've bought. This is one of my little luxuries (I know. It's like a mom getting a vacuum for her birthday and being actually excited. Haha!). The scent I usually buy is in the black box. It smells good, but maybe I've been using it so long that the smell isn't as noticeable after a wash. I don't think it was as strong as the French Saffron even after my first wash, though. It may be the addition of the scent boosters. I don't think that's the difference either since I've used the entire set for the other scent, too. Anyway, the French Saffron scent is to die for! It's has fruity undertones without being cheap smelling. It has a complex scent I don't think I've ever smelled before, and I've smelled every perfume Sephora carries in store in thr last decade (and have quite a collection). The scent is sweet with the tonka bean and fruit profiles, but the French Saffron scent evens it out and makes it more complex. The best part? It stays on the clothes and lasts until it's thrown back in the wash. It also uses more natural ingredients and less or no harmful chemicals. The box is thick with a metal closure for the detergent pods and the scent bead has a perfectly fitted slide off top. The entire thing is luxe, and because it's luxe in every conceivable way that I could think of for such a simple, everyday product, we are not talking value for money. There's really no good reason to spend $25 plus tax on a box of dryer sheets when you can get a box of Downy with more sheets for $6. There's no good reason to spend $99 on the entire set when you can get an entire set of Tide & Downy (comparable product types) for $40 and it will last longer. That's really the point, though. It's a wasteful, luxurious little thing that makes your day a bit brighter because it smells that good throughout the day. It doesn't rise to the level of the value of an expensive perfume, but it's close! The entire set is $99. That's a lot for someone who does laundry every day because of a husband who wears a work uniform and performs a relatively dirty job when outside of the office, and an 11 year old boy who's all boy. I mitigate that risk by only using it on a load of clothes that's mostly or all mine (because I'm the only one who cares) or our bedding. I keep some Tide and Downy around for the rest. Also, unlike other name brands, this brand can be used with trust. I don't ever open my front load HE washer with suds on the door and a probable residue on my clothes that is likely the culprit of skin irritation, like with brands like Tide. I've never had such a good experience with any name brand at any store, and those are the best you can get in store! I don't have any skin irritations and my son's eczema doesn't flare up. Most likely due to the lack of chemicals and sudsing agents that are common in other brands. I recommend this if you're looking for something luxe that you don't need. You'll love it! It gets my clothes clean and smelling great until they are dirty. I've never been sent a box without a protective foam and a seal that prevents breakage and leakage during shipping. It always shows up in perfect order whether I order from Amazon or Laundry Sauce directly. It is great in every way!

Laundry Sauce is the best laundry detergent I’ve ever used. The luxury scents (I tried Italian Bergamot) are incredible—my clothes smell expensive and fresh for days, not just hours. It cleans stains and odors really well and the concentrated pods mean a little goes a long way. My laundry routine has never felt this luxurious!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The only detergent I use. Cleans well and smells amazing.

The Pros: This is definitely the best part! Unlike regular detergent that smell “bubbles” or “lemon” this actually smells like a high end cologne or perfume. Even reminds me of the strong smells like the bath and body candles. The scent stays on clothes for days. I also appreciate that it brings the scent booster which I feel enhanced the smell to another level! Cleaning power: it does a solid job on everyday dirt and smells. My clothes feel so soft and looked brighter after washing. Convenience: the pods are super easy to use- just toss in and that’s it! The cons: The Price: it is significantly more expensive than the detergent you find at the store. It feels more like a luxury treat than a basic necessity. If you are someone who loves it when your clothes and bedding smell like a designer fragrance, Laundry sauce is most definitely worth it! If you are just looking for the cheapest way to keep your socks clean I would stick to the basic. I will definitely be using these specifically for my towels and bedding!

Used two pods for a semi big load of laundry and even added the scent booster that came with it, dried it with the dryer sheets (sold separately) and I absolutely can barely smell any scent on my laundry. I can’t even pick up anything at all which is super disappointing considering the price. When you open the box it does smell great and I like the presentation but that’s where it ends. I gave it one star just for presentation but for the price spent you’d think it would smell as advertised. I spent about 90 dollars in total. Compared to other brands like Tyler candle which I normally buy this is subpar in comparison. You’d probably have to add atleast 3 pods and a handful of the scent booster to pick up the scent on your clothes after wash/drying if you do the math with 69 pods that comes out to 23 loads which is absolutely aweful. Will not be purchasing again or recommending this detergent.
