2. I was thinking of buying that today,
I remembered really liking it, but when I smelled it today, it didn't smell as good to me. Maybe it was a stinky batch, or my sniffer is off.

:shrug:

3. I use Sun Free & Clear
No dyes. No perfumes. Am sensitive to a lot of perfumes and dyes.

6. Do some detergents make you itchy?
or sneezy?

I know someone who uses Purel (I think) because of that.

10. Itchy, a rash
some perfumes give me a sinus type headache

Am a redhead and fair-skinned. Tend to be skin sensitive to a lot of products, so most of what I use for washing and personal use is dye and perfume free.

13. Sun is sure a better priced detergent.
I bought the mountain fresh scent for two bucks. Can't beat that.

15. Well, that must have been nice!
A detergent that doesn't give you terrible itchies at a good price.

The wool socks I had to wear in the army made me itch like the dickens. They wouldn't let me wear other socks. Itching sucks...lol.

9. It's European
I bought a Miele HE washing machine and Persil was reccomended by the manufacturer. I have to buy the stuff from an import store and it's quite expensive ($45 a box) but worth it. You only use about one tablespoon per load.

7. Anything that smells as little as possible
I don't like heavy perfumes. However, we use Tide HE.

16. Same here
It has to be unscented liquid. I'm OK with anything on my clothes, but the rest of the crowd around this house breaks out something awful if we don't use unscented liquid detergent. Who wants to walk around smelling like a bowl of fruit anyway?
