LION Laundry Detergent with Softener, Sweet Harmony Scent, 850g

The appeal of a 2-in-1 laundry detergent that Canada-based shoppers can actually get hold of is straightforward: one bottle, one pour, and the softener is already in it. Lion's TOP line has been doing this in Japan for years, and Sweet Harmony is the scent-led version.

The scent is the reason people seek this out specifically. It is a soft, fruity floral built with natural fruit oils, and it is designed to still be there when you put the garment on rather than only while the machine is running. That matters most for laundry dried indoors, which is where clothes usually pick up a flat, damp smell.

This laundry detergent with softener that Canadian buyers order from Japan is also formulated without fluorescent brighteners, which is why it suits coloured and darker loads that optical brighteners tend to dull over time. It supports a single rinse cycle, so a wash takes less time and less water. As a Japanese laundry detergent available in Canada, it sits at the more fragrance-forward end alongside brands like Lavons.

1.     Measure using the cap. For a 6.0 kg load use 1 cap, for 5.0 kg use 0.7, for 4.0 kg use 0.6 and for 2.0 kg use 0.4.

2.     Pour the detergent into the detergent compartment of your machine, or directly into the drum if your machine takes it that way.

3.     Do not add a separate fabric softener. The softener is already in this formula.

4.     For a stubborn stain, apply a small amount directly to the mark and leave for 5 to 10 minutes before washing.

5.     Run your normal cycle. A single rinse is sufficient.

6.     Store somewhere cool and dry, out of reach of children.
