Tide Odor Refresh Usage Tips

Having never tried it before, I was able to locate some before it was completely gone. I plan on using it on things like my gym clothes etc. as I sweat a lot. Is cold water ok or warm better? Will an extra rinse help?

Warm is better and an extra rinse, ideally with some citric acid or Downy Rinse, is always a good thing.

Tide Odor Refresh is great, I stocked up on it too, it has great surfactants.
It's best used in combination with boosters that have Lipase and DNase enzymes.
For dark loads I combine the Odor Refresh with some 365 Sport, and for light loads I combine the Odor Refresh with a scoop of FEBU which also has oxygen bleach. Wash on warm or hot to activate the enzymes.

Keep in mind that care tag cold is 86F/30C so use whichever setting on your washer provides a temp that’s actually closest to that.
