3 new Softeners arrived!!!

9 years ago

I found some fun, new goodies at Jet . com

I think I have used Jet in the past, but it has been a while. Wow, great prices and free shipping when the order hits $35. Cannot believe they shipped these for free, as the box was huge and SO heavy!

Shockingly the Orange Snuggle smells the best. Not gaggy sweet, not perfumey....it is clean, and you can actually smell a hint of citrus (fake, I'm sure LOL)...but no scent pearl nastiness!

Purple Fusion smells good too. Being honest, I just bought it because the bottle and liquid is purple. Ha ha ha I love anything purple! It is hard to describe. Not sweet, Not herbal. Pleasant actually!

Final Touch, I am on the fence about. The bottle was dusty actually and dated 2014 :-O It does not smell rancid at all, but it is thicker than I expected (or like). The scent is not bad, but NOT good. Kind of like a light chemical scent with a hint of fragrance. It might smell ok when diluted in the rinse cycle. If not...bye bye :)

    I've not tried any of these except the Final Touch which I kinda liked years ago before it changed. The orange Snuggle sounds interesting and woild probably be nice on towels. Maybe I'll pick up the orange one day. Have fun Larsi trying out your newest stash.

    By the way have you seen Downys Citrus Spice around? I'm wondering if its been discontinued since I've seen it no where in about a year. I really love it but only on towels.

    You made me laugh when you said you bought the purple fusion just because it's purple. Purple is my favorite color.


    I think they sell both those Snuggle formulas locally. I'll have to give them a sniff.

    @Mama, I have only found citrus spice at Jewel (Albertsons) lately. Nowhere else.:(

    @Mama....our Ralph's (Kroger) still sells Downy Citrus Spice. Agree, it is amazing on towels and a little with sheets!

    @Greeny....purple and blue are my fav colours. I love anything purple...but not too much into lilac or light violet (that is too old lady, velour track suit, LOL). Blues must not have green though. I am not a fan of green!

    The orange is great. Never see it in stores anymore. Kmart used to have it but closed in my area. Dollar General has the green bottle Snuggle but I have never tried it. I also bought a Final Touch a while back 35 load size at Dollar Tree. It has no smell afterwards to me but I don't use very much. Enjoy the fresh orange Snuggle!

    Wow, I haven't seen Final Touch in many years.

    Larsi you a man after my own heart lol. I saw a post you had on Green Burst Snuggle I found it at dollar general had it sent to my mail forwarding service cost a bomb to have it shipped here I was so excited as I used Snuggle Green Burst when I lived in the USA Unilever version. Sadly it wasn't the smell I remembered and I could hardly smell after dried. I think I am searching for something that doesn't exist. My partner asked me last night if I wanted to develop a softener company lol. Lets just say theres a lot stashed luckily I have a couple of friends that appreciate my illness and are happy to take what I don't want any more.


    This was the version I was referring to. Hopefully you love your new finds will have a look at this jet.com. Thanks for the tip

    Thanks Jim :) While I really love trying new detergents, I REALLY love fabric softeners. I cannot tell you how many times I have tried not using them...and I just hate the feel of laundry w/o softener!

    Where did you move to, no longer in the USA? The Green Burst Snuggle I had shipped from Dollar General was ok, but I like this Orange one much better!!

    ***Final Touch softener is DREADFUL!!!

    It is thick, does not smell good, it left my bath towels feeling scratchier and less fluffy than if I would have used no softener at all and so much was stuck in the FS reservoir after the final rinse.

    YUCK!!

    But, I like the Purple Fusion Snuggle and I REALLY like the Orange Rush Snuggle!

    Larsi. I’m in Adelaide Australia. I am an Aussie but lived in New York for about a year. I became hooked on US laundry products and thanks to Amazon was always able to buy my beloved April Fresh Downy. We now have Costco here so they also stock Tide and Downy which is great as it’s so much cheaper. Also as it’s changed so much throughout the years I’m always on the hunt for that smell. Over hear P&G don’t have a laundry presence. We have Unilever, Henkel, Cusson and Kao for detergents. Colgate Palmolive have Cuddly which is Suavitel and Fluffy. Unilever have Comfort. I tend to favour P&G softeners for some reason the others smell too floral for me. I have tried Costco’s softener it was ok. It’s fun trying all different combinations. Here are some pictures from my local supermarkets detergent aisle

    Hope you enjoy!

    Fab? Dynamo?


    Did I just wake up in 1984?


    We don't have those here in the U.S. anymore that I am aware of. Wow!


    Thanks for the trip down your detergent aisle! That was FUN! : )

    I'm glad you all enjoyed. I will try to get to another supermarket where there is even more choice. In the mean time, I will keep a look out for all your great posts and pictures!! :))

    I see Fab all time liquid and powder and have seen Dynamo especially at Big Lots but Fab is at Walmart and most grocery stores.

  • 8 years ago

    I surely reside in a detergent void over here Sparky. I haven't seen Fab or Dynamo since I was a young thing battling for position in the apt laundry room housing two washers for a large apt complex--another lifetime ago. I assumed those two detergents went the way of Fresh Start granules. It was so long ago, I can't remember if they were good performers.


    Thanks again Jim for sharing your selection of laundry products. It was good to see.

    Mama is 100% right. Current Fab powder is dreadful!!! Nothing but perfumed soda. Like washing your clothes with nothing!!
