Ok please don't hit me over the head for this question. What do you ladies use or put in your dresser draw to give your undies that wonderful smell?.
Now I did ask my wife and she informed me she didn't know as she uses nothing. ***huh***

I have a couple of nice scented soaps that came from the lingerie shop 'La Senza', in my undies drawer. Don't know if you have it in the States. The soaps smell gorgeous! I've also got some scented beads from the same shop, they always put some in the packaging if you buy stuff there gift wrapped in tissue and in a box. I love receiving gifts like that! Being married to a crossdresser does have it's advantages :mrgreen:

Your wife must use some nice washing powder and fabric conditioner I suppose 8) I always take the top off them and sniff them for the best one when I go shopping :)

I also use those 'Bounce' tumble dry sheets in my drawers too :bigsmile:

Love,
Curly :)

When it's pleasant, I use the term 'aroma' instead of 'smell' 8)

DonnaT,
Yes you are very correct, I used very poor grammar. _P

Smell is fine. Meaning, to perceiving scent by means of the olfactory nerves. It can be good, (the sweet smell of success) or bad (those old shoes smell).

Where 'aroma' has a positive aspect, that depends on who is smelling what. So while many of those items - I use Bounce myself - seem to many to be pleasing, to others they are horrible.

Hi, Carol Ann -

Virginia and I use the Fresh Scent Sachets by The WillowBrook Company. We have them in a variety of aromas, but we prefer the Vanilla, Orange Clove, or Cinnamon; we also use their Room Sprays, candles, and potpourri. I've found them at Burlington Coat Factory, Bed Bath and Beyond, Linens-N-Things, and Kirkland, to name a few stores. I have never ordered them online directly from the company, although their prices seem in line with what I've found at the stores.

Some women also use scented drawer liners, scented soap bars, the 'cubed' scented bath salts (still wrapped!), or fabric softener dryer sheets. A word of caution when using the dryer sheets, though: they have a tendency to leave a residue on some items. That being said, I do use them, but I hang them in closets, linen cupboards, sink cabinets, etc.

*Hugs*

Oh I like that scented soap deal as we have a ton of that around the house and nobody use it. Christmas present don't you know, thank you one and all.

I buy sachets at Walmart...about $1 each, one for each drawer. The brand is "Florasense" in a number of fragrances. They are back by the artificial flower area. And yes, they do leave a nice aroma on dainties.
