    Not for me. I use unscented detergent and dryer sheets because I dislike scented linens and clothes.

    I’m another one who can’t tolerate scents... so no.

    Not only would the scents bother me but I wonder what they would do to the fabric. Some antique fabrics disintegrate over time because of the dyes and processes used to make them and I wonder if fabrics treated with scents may do the same thing.

    I like scents, but I don't like paying for something that doesn't last.

    I’m trying to imagine what it would be like to work with... surely your hands would end up smelling in a very concentrated way (and maybe even your tools?) More than anything that’s what would put me off

    I love fragrances and I love the smell of clean fabric however I’d like to be in control of how it’s scented on my end with detergents, softeners and ironing sprays.

    I’m not averse to scented products usually, but I wouldn’t buy it. Fabric isn’t Kent to be scented. If I want it to smell, I’ll use fabric softener.

    I can only wonder what the chemicals in the fabric would do to it over the years.
