How do you use wasparfum?
How do you use wasparfum, a liquid you can add to your wash. That way your clothes and towels keep smelling extra nice. Wasparfum is often stronger in scent and lasts longer than fabric softener.
You do not use it as a replacement for detergent, but as an extra for a fresh scent. A fragrance booster contains a mix of scent oils and is usually added to the fabric softener compartment of your washing machine. That way it only reaches the drum during the last rinse. This lets the scent soak into your laundry properly.
Nice-smelling clothes in 3 steps
Using a fragrance booster is simple. You only need to follow three steps.
Step 1: Shake the bottle
Before you dose, shake the bottle. That way the fragrance ingredients mix well.
Step 2: Choose the right amount
How much wasparfum should I dose?
Pour 5 to 10 ml (about half a cap) of wasparfum into the fabric softener compartment. Better to start with a little and see what you like.
The amount you need depends on how strong you want the scent. Want an extra strong scent? Then you can add a little more.
Tip: Do you use an automatic washing machine with a dosing system? Then you can also dilute the perfume with water to prevent clogging.
Step 3: Start your wash program
Put your laundry in the machine, choose the right program, and start the wash. The wasparfum is released during the last rinse.
Which is better? Wasparfum or fabric softener?
Wasparfum and fabric softener look similar, but they are not the same. Fabric softener makes your clothes feel soft and less static. It mainly makes the fabric smoother.
Wasparfum is meant for scent. It gives your laundry a strong, long-lasting scent, but it does not make your clothes softer.
Some people choose to use both at the same time. But together this can be too strong, or leave residue in your washing machine. So it is better to use only fabric softener or only wasparfum.
Want your clothes to smell nice, and also get your laundry clean and soft? Then we recommend washing with laundry sheets. Laundry sheets make your clothes softer because the enzyme cellulase removes small leftover fibers. That way your laundry feels more supple and stays looking good longer.
Tips for the best result
Don't wash too hot
A fragrance booster holds better at a lower temperature, for example 30 or 40 degrees.
Let your laundry dry properly
Hang your laundry up right after washing and let it dry thoroughly. That way the scent stays fresh and you prevent musty smells.
Flush your washing machine now and then
Now and then use a hot program or a cleaning tablet to rinse perfume residue away. That way your machine stays clean and fresh.
Is wasparfum safe for your washing machine and health?
A fragrance booster is safe if you use it the right way. Do keep your skin in mind and rinse your machine well.
Do make sure you clean the washing machine regularly. The best way to do this is with a special washing machine cleaner. That way you prevent fragrance ingredients from building up and your machine from rinsing less well.
Do you get skin irritation easily? Then start with a small amount of perfume and see how your skin reacts. Better not to use wasparfum on clothes for babies or people with a perfume allergy.
