The Complete Guide to Long-Lasting Laundry Freshness — How to Use All Your Scento Products Together

We all dream of laundry that is not only perfectly clean but beautifully fragrant. The right combination of laundry detergents and laundry perfumes can significantly affect the intensity and longevity of the scent on your clothes. In this guide, we share the best tips for combining laundry products for long-lasting freshness.

1. The foundation — choosing the right laundry detergent

A great-smelling wash starts with the right base. In the Scento Verslun shop, our Laundry Detergents & Fabric Softeners collection includes quality laundry gels for every type of wash. Laundry gels are ideal for delicate fabrics, coloured clothing, and everyday washing. They dissolve easily at lower temperatures and are gentler on fibres — keeping your clothes looking and smelling their best wash after wash.

2. Laundry perfumes — how to use them correctly

Laundry perfumes are concentrated fragrance essences added during washing to give fabrics a long-lasting, luxurious scent. Unlike fabric softeners, they contain no softening agents — meaning they are safe to use on functional fabrics, sportswear, and towels without affecting their absorbency or performance. They are also safe for your washing machine and dryer — leaving no residue or build-up.

How to add laundry perfume:

• In the washing machine: Add to the fabric softener compartment (marked with a flower symbol). Use 5ml per 5kg of laundry as a starting point — adjust up or down based on your personal scent preference.
• Hand washing: Add a few drops to the water during the final rinse.

3. Dryer pods — fragrance that lasts through drying

Our Dryer Pods are a simple and effective way to add fragrance during the drying cycle. Just toss a pod into the dryer with your laundry — no measuring, no mess. They help preserve softness and keep fabrics smelling fresh for longer.

4. Can I use fabric softener with laundry perfume?

Our laundry perfumes work perfectly on their own. If you’d like to use a fabric softener alongside, we recommend Elda Soft — a neutral sanitising softener that is fully compatible with our laundry perfume range, available in our Laundry Detergents & Fabric Softeners collection.

5. Tips for making the scent last as long as possible

• Use quality laundry gels that clean thoroughly — a clean fabric holds fragrance better
• Don’t overfill the washing machine, so products distribute evenly
• Air-dry or use the dryer with dryer pods for maximum freshness
• Add a scented card from our home fragrance collection to your wardrobe or drawers for ongoing freshness
