Le Blanc® White Flowers Silk & Lingerie Wash – Luxury Laundry Cleanser for Delicates- 64 oz. (1 pack)

I wasn't going to review this laundry product until I had had a chance to use it with silk and wool items, but then I realized that that may not happen until the rather distant future. So far I have done two loads of sweaters, tops, and lingerie (one light, one dark), and only one item was a blend of silk/cotton; everything else was nylon or cotton or spandex - and that is likely to be my washing pattern nearly always. I do have some silk dresses that I love, and I always take those to the dry cleaners. My husband is a redhead and has ALWAYS had very sensitive skin; mine was only moderately sensitive when I was younger, but has gradually grown worse as I've aged. I had to give away all my wool sweaters that actually came in contact with my skin (even alpaca and cashmere); I do still have cardigans, but have to make sure I wear something non-irritating underneath. So, for several years now I've been on a continuous search for fragrance-free, color-free, "hypo-allergenic" products that will also do an adequate job of cleaning. Since we live in a smallish city, I have to buy most of these products on the Internet. Frequently when I do find something that seems pretty good, I can't find it again when I run out!!! So, I bought the LeBlanc wash after a fairly lengthy search on Amazon; the 64 oz. amount seemed somewhat excessive for a household of two - but from the product descriptions, the LeBlanc seemed the one that best fit our needs of mildness, yet adequate cleaning. So, I've used it twice - cold water for the darks, lukewarm for the light colors, with a double rinse. I air-dry the stuff that might be damaged in the dryer (e.g. bras, swimsuits, some sweaters, etc.), and dry the rest at the lowest heat setting in the dryer. It worked fine, and neither my husband nor I are having any itching or other issues (our skin always does get better in the spring and summer, when the humidity in our area is higher). So, I can't comment how well this would do on wool or 100% silk, but it worked fine with our "everyday" laundry - and with the 64 oz. size I will not need to search for more for a LOOONG time :) !

I like the big 64 oz jug - I ordered it about 3 years ago and I’m still not even close to running out. I use it for my merino wool, cashmere, and mulberry silk loads only, and it takes 1/4 cup per load. I also appreciate that they offer a fragrance-free option since I prefer my clothes without added scent. Overall, a solid staple to have for delicate fabrics.

I bought this because I wanted to clean a $$$$ Burberry scarf without ruining it. It did the job wonderfully, and the fragrance is amazing. I also used it to wash wool blend sweaters that had shrunken when washed in a machine on delicate/cold. After soaking the sweater for 30 minutes, rinse once (never wringing) then I laid it on a white towel, rolled it up to remove the moisture, and re-stretched the sweater to its original size Then I let it dry. For the Burberry scarf, I soaked it in cold, water, mixed with a cap full of the linen wash for about 20 minutes. Then I drained the sink and rinse the scarf FIVE times with cool water. This makes sure your scarf stays soft and subtle to the touch. Without ever ringing it, just swish it around in the clear, cool water then I laid it on a clean towel and carefully rolled it up and pressed (never wring)Just press the moisture out. Then I hung the scarf to dry on the drying rack. Perfect! This linen wash has also removed spots and stains perfectly.

This is THE very best product for hand-washing delicates! I buy it over and over and am neveer disappointed!

Like this fragrance so much better than the lavender. However, deducted a star because the instructions tell you to use way too much detergent. The clothes actually don't get as clean, or smell as good, as they do with a smaller amount. Dislike a company telling you to waste product especially since the detergent is expensive to begin with.

Wash came on time and was packaged fine. I was pleasantly surprised to see how large the bottle was! I have spent a good amount of money on new bras and bought this lingerie wash specifically for them. I hand washed them in the sink with about 2 cap fulls of soap (which is not much detergent at all!) and let them soak for the recommended 20 minutes. The smell was great! I did a lot of research on lingerie detergents and settled on LeBlanc. I went with the Lavender scent (it also has a slight citrus smell) over the original Lingerie wash scent (someone on the original scent reviewed that the smell had reminded them of their grandmother's lingerie drawer). I was NOT disappointed with the lavender/citrus smell. It is very light and smells great. It really seemed to rejuvenate the elastic bands and my bras felt like they were brand new and after soaking for 20 minutes the detergent was powerful enough to get them clean (evident by the slightly dingy colored water). I highly recommend this lingerie wash for your delicate undergarments. Update: 2 years later and I wanted to update on how great this detergent is. We purchased a very nice front load washer/dryer about 9mo ago and I use this detergent for my delicates on the gentle cycle (I add the detergent to the 'min' fill line). It is still working fabulously! We also have a LoveSac sofa and blankets that need TLC when washing and this detergent works great on the sofa cushion covers, and lovesac covers as well.

This is my favorite detergent for delicates. I like the lavender one and now I got the evergreen woods, which smells even better. Thanks!

I bought the sampler pack of other scents too. The Evergreen Woods one is honestly the only one I like, and it's my favorite laundry detergent ever right now.
