Who has smelly children out there?
I know I do! That’s why I was pleased to receive a sample of Purex Crystals Limited Edition Fabulously Fresh from the Purex brand in exchange for a review. My thoughts on Purex Crystals, a laundry freshener, are my own.
First Impression
I loved the packaging. Bright and futuristic. I felt like a cool kid just using the stuff. The crystals, a lime green color, have a fresh scent, but not an overpowering one.
Using the Crystals
I tried 2 different loads using the crystals, which you add to the wash along with your detergent. This step is important to me, as I don’t want to worry about making laundry any more complicated by having to put softeners or fragrance boosters in at a certain time in the cycle.
With my son’s dirty clothes, I used a medium amount and didn’t notice a strong scent. Heck, I didn’t really notice any scent at all once his clothes were dry. For the second load (my bathroom towels), I used the largest amount recommended. The crystals claim they do NOT reduce the absorbancy of towels. I found this to be true. Plus, I am pleasantly surprised by the very faint, but fresh scent of the towels each time I use them, and it’s been over a week.
Conclusion
If you like a laundry enhancer that is NOT heavily scented, then give Purex Crystals Fabulously Fresh a try. You may be pleased by its light, fresh scent, and might enjoy a bit of freshness on your clothes.

I want to win because I like that it leaves a lingering scent on your laundry. I like the purex brand. I’ve been using their natural detergent for a while, I like the scent and I can usually get it for a great price. And it seems to work just as well as the more expensive ones…. Since my step daughter started doing her laundry and can’t grasp the concept of concentrated and doesn’t believe me OR the bottle on how little you use, price is important for laundry stuff as we go through a lot! Lol. I’ve tried the scent booster they make in the blue container and like it a lot. Interested in trying this one as well! Thanks for the. Chance to win.
