Few things are more maddening than finishing a load of laundry and finding that a stain or funky smell wasn’t entirely purged. Thrifted clothing, kids’ sports gear, well-worn clothes, old bedding and towels can harbor deeply-embedded odors, even with regular laundering. Adding a laundry booster, like the Active Enzyme odor remover, can make a huge difference in the quality of your wash, extending the life of your clothing and other fabrics.

There are all kinds of reasons why your laundry might be smelling funkier than usual — a lot of people are concerned about “old person smell” and while persimmon soap has been found to possibly help keep it at bay, using a laundry booster can potentially help to root it out of clothing, towels, sheets and other affected fabrics, like curtains.

The Active Enzyme Laundry Booster was carefully formulated to deeply clean without irritating sensitive skin, and countless reviews state that it can get rid of stains and old musty smells, including deeply-rooted sweat stank and more.

One reviewer said, “The synthetic sportswear I use in the gym has this stank that just wasn’t leaving my clothes despite odor refresh detergent and everything... [when] I added [two] scoops of the laundry booster to this new method, the embedded stank just went away.” It’s a must for vintage clothes, pet bedding, people who work in outdoor professions, construction or plumbing, or athletes, families with active kids and teens, the elderly and even individuals suffering from menopause-induced hot flashes and night sweats.
