The Laundress Whites Detergent, Concentrated Laundry Detergent Liquid, Whiten & Brighten Clothes, Tough on Stains, Classic Scent, 32 oz.

I really like the detergent. However, the first bottle arrived busted and had leaked. We returned it and received a replacement. The replacement bottle lid was broken off but at least the it did not bust and leak. I would recommend better packing to prevent damages.

It’s expensive but smells really good. If it were cheaper I would buy it more often.

I loved this product before the recall. I feel that I need to finally stop paying top dollar for it as I wait for it to come back to life because it's lost about half it's fragrance, there's absolutely no remaining scent after the wash so my closet and drawers don't have that amazing smell I lived so so much, and no more compliments throughout the day which used to happen all day wherever I'd go. Plus, I have been waiting for my favorite (and so many others people's favorite) scent "No. 10" that has such a beautiful, but not too feminine scent that sticks to every singke fiber of your clothes for a long long time, and to snuggle into freshly washed sheets and duvet/blankets is like heaven. There's no longevity at all now and I can't even smell it while it's washing or drying. They don't offer dryer sheets to complete the scent of the detergent. That has always bothered me, so before I was getting "Bounce free and clear" dryer sheets which really fluffed everything up very nicely, and left each room smelling amazing. But the whitening product has changed from powder to liquid and it isn't half as good at brightening whites as the powder which worked so well giving very dingy old clothes a new lease on life. Not anymore. I wonder if the difference is the use of borax? I think thar was an ingredient in the powder but isn't in the liquid. I still have a spot stain removal bar (it started out tiny and it's 2/3's gone now) which I keep for intimate and small stains that has borax in it and it's a beast! But they recalled literally everything. I don't know what kind of problem there could be for them to remove every single product they offered. Like powder and bar soap like that. But I'm not privy to why it happened, it just seems like every time I find something I REALLY love and plan to stick with, it disappears or changes for whatever reason. It's very disappointing. As far as cost goes, the value of putting twice as much money into a product than leading brands, while waiting for "No. 10" and hoping they fix their formula, that is way too expensive for me. I can't afford to buy products that I'm not thoroughly happy with at designer prices and to me with my small budget, this is a luxury, and sadly I won't be buying more. I have struggled to find another highly scented detergent that I like so I'm also sinking more money into that. I wish I knew which one is comparable to the former formula that Laundress was using that is nearly as good. My whites are dingy again with the new recipe and I'm paying a lot for the past success of this product that's nowhere near the same I'm also disappointed in the lack of brightness and stain removal. It just doesn't work like it did

I use it safely on my whites and it does the job

Works great, but the scent is too heavy. I wish they had a whites detergent that had no scent, or a light, fresh scent. The current scent is a horrible.
