light clean scent
A fan favorite for a reason. Clothes come out noticeably softer with a long‑lasting, clean scent. Reviewers consistently praise how well it reduces static and keeps laundry feeling fresh.

Lasting scent
Leaves clothes smelling absolutely amazing and soft. Even after wearing clothes all day, the scent lingers. It’s like another layer of added fragrance when I walk out the door.

Gentle Scent, Soft cloths
I like the affordability of this product, especially when purchased from a big box store. It was a larger, yet easily designed container that worked well in storing away. The scent is great, even for the fussiest of scent requirements. Downy's April Fresh Fabric Softner will leave your clothes and bedding with a lovely softness. Don't hesitate on picking this up! It will be a great addition to your laundry routine.

Smells amazing
Downy has always been my go-to fabric softener, and the April Fresh scent is still one of the best. It leaves clothes smelling clean, soft, and fresh without being overpowering. The scent lasts for days after washing, even when the laundry has been stored in drawers or closets. This large 120-load bottle is a great value; a little goes a long way, and the consistency makes it easy to measure without spills. It works perfectly in both standard and high-efficiency machines and helps reduce static cling, especially on towels and bedding. I’ve noticed that fabrics stay softer and last longer compared to using detergent alone. It also helps reduce wrinkles, making clothes easier to fold and wear straight from the dryer. Overall, this is a dependable and effective fabric softener with a timeless scent. It delivers great value, consistent results, and that familiar Downy freshness that keeps laundry feeling like new.
