Best for: Softening clothes and adding scent in the wash
If your goal is a cleaner, lower-tox option for everyday use, Gain Scented Laundry Detergent is usually the better swap in this category.

Both options land in a similar higher-concern band. If you are trying to build a very low-tox setup, consider phasing both out over time in favor of more inert swaps.
