Let’s look at how to prepare a homemade laundry scent booster to add to your wash. You’ll need just a few easy-to-find ingredients: coarse salt, baking soda, and one or more natural essential oils.
Creating a homemade laundry fragrance is simple and uses ingredients chosen for their excellent washing properties. Coarse salt works with the detergent to effectively remove stains, while baking soda offers disinfecting benefits.

The preparation is straightforward: mix 1.5 cups of coarse salt, a half cup of baking soda, and 30 to 40 drops of a natural essential oil in a bowl (the amount depends on your preference). Once all the ingredients are combined, stir well with a spoon.

Once mixed evenly, transfer the concoction to an airtight container. Shake the container well to ensure a thorough blend, and make sure it’s securely sealed to avoid any spills. You now have scented salts ready to be added to your laundry.

Using the DIY laundry scent booster is easy. Just add one or two spoonfuls directly into the drum of the washing machine along with your laundry, depending on the load size.
