Does Essential Oils on a Dryer Ball Work?
There are so many recipes for using essential oils on wool dryer balls before tossing them into the dryer and that your laundry will come out smelling like a dream. In my experience, this has not worked so great. The dryer ball smells nice but it doesn't transfer to my clothes. I wonder if it's the heat evaporating the scent of the essential oil?
