Laundry Scent Booster Beads 800g - Long-Lasting Fragrance Booster for Washing — WIMU Kitchen Nairobi

Laundry Scent Booster Beads...

Scent boosters are not detergent, and understanding that is the key to using them well: they add long-lasting fragrance to a wash your detergent has already cleaned, and they keep working on the fabric after it dries — which is why clothes from a boosted wash still smell fresh out of the wardrobe weeks later, where detergent scent fades within days. They are particularly worth it for towels, bedding and anything stored between uses. This is the 800g pack, a sensible size to try the routine or for a smaller household, and it is designed to work alongside your regular detergent rather than replacing it. Simply added to the drum with the wash — no measuring cap, no mess, no change to your normal cycle.

Buying guide

Use boosters correctly and they work well; use them as detergent and you will be disappointed, because they add fragrance rather than cleaning. Add the beads to the empty drum before the clothes, not into the detergent drawer, which is where people go wrong — the drawer flushes them away too early. Start with less than you think: a small scoop scents a full load, and over-dosing leaves residue and an overpowering smell rather than a fresher one. They are most worthwhile on towels, bedding and clothes stored between wears, and least worthwhile on things washed and worn immediately. Be considerate of sensitive skin, since heavily fragranced fabric can irritate — skip boosters for babywear and anyone with eczema. Keep the pack sealed and dry, as beads clump with moisture. The 2.5kg pack is better value if you commit to the routine.

How it compares

Against detergent alone, boosters keep fabric smelling fresh for weeks in storage where detergent scent fades within days. Compared with fabric softener, softeners soften and lightly scent while boosters focus on lasting fragrance — and softener coats fibres, which reduces towel absorbency. Against the 2.5kg pack, that is better value once you know you like the routine. Against a fabric spray, in-wash beads scent throughout rather than on the surface.

Frequently asked questions

Do they replace detergent?
No — they add long-lasting fragrance to a wash your detergent has cleaned. Used alone, clothes will not be clean.

Where do the beads go?
Into the empty drum before the clothes, not the detergent drawer. The drawer flushes them away too early, which is the most common mistake.

How much should I use?
Less than you think — a small scoop scents a full load. Over-dosing leaves residue and an overpowering smell. Skip them for babywear and sensitive skin.

Do you deliver outside Nairobi?
