What Makes A Detergent The Best Smelling
Three things: the scent family, the structure and the longevity. We use masculine families men actually choose, build each scent with top, heart and base notes, and layer it wash to dry so it lasts. Add a 6-enzyme cold-water clean and you get a detergent that smells incredible and pulls its weight on sweat and stains.
