have you ever tried this, and would your clothes smell from that perfume?
Don’t do this. The oils in the perfume could stain your clothing, oil and water don’t mix. And it’s not cost effective. Use a scented fabric softner, works much better and leaves your clothes smelling great as well as soft.
Downy has a great simple pleasures line, it even has matches the new tide fragrances so you get an overall great fragrance experience and the scents don’t compete against eachother.

ive done it. put a few drops of my cologne into the rinse cycle. the smell is faint but nice. if you dry your clothes for a long time or at a high temp, the smell might come out tho.
PS: the cologne is so diluted with water that theres no way it will ever damage your clothes or youe washer. and YES, it does work

Oooh, good idea! But, it won’t work. Perfume is one of the causes of those "ghost stains" that show up on your clothes. The ones that make your shirt look as if you have a wet spots on you. This is also why you should not spray perfume directly on your clothes, but on your skin prior to dressing.

You could pour perfume but should not. You could damage your washer. Your washer would likely wash out the perfume anyway.
I think it would be a waste of money and not worth risk to damage your washer which probably have a notice on your washer telling you that you should only put products meant for use in a washer in the washer.
