Downy Rinse and Refresh is much better than vinegar at getting rid of odors in clothing and can be used more often than vinegar can.

Downy Rinse and Refresh is worth it and I use it myself with great results.

Downy Rinse & Refresh is a great, low pH solution that dissolves odor-causing residues and other buildup on fabrics, similar to clarifying shampoo.

By removing excess residues and buildup, the colors of your clothes and laundry can stay more vibrant and fabrics feel softer.

The Downy Rinse & Refresh is also good at getting rid of mildew smells and musty smells in clothing and fabrics.

Downy Rinse & Refresh is even better than vinegar at deodorizing clothing and laundry.

Downy Rinse and Refresh is nothing like a traditional fabric softener.

Traditional Liquid Fabric Softeners lubricate fibers making them soft and fresh.

With only 5 ingredients, Downy Rinse & Refresh is designed to remove odor causing residues not lubricate fibers.

It is safe to use Downy liquid fabric conditioners and scent boosters in all types of washing machines, including all HE washing machines and combo washer/dryers.

Some of the best laundry detergents to get rid of mildy and musty smells in clothing and laundry include.

Tide Ultra Oxi with Odor Eliminators.
Gain+Odor Defense Super Fresh Blast Flings Laundry Detergent Pacs.
Active Wear Laundry Detergent & Soak.
Tide Febreze Sport.
Dirty Labs Bio Enzyme Laundry Detergent.
Persil Advanced Clean Liquid Detergent.
Loni Bio Laundry Detergent.

To get rid of musty smells and mildew smells from laundry you can also add a cup of vinegar or a cup of baking soda to the wash to combat odors.

Also consider using a clothesline if possible to dry your clothes outside to get a fresh outdoors scent.

Use half a cup of pine-scented cleaner in the washer (the pine smell will be eliminated after a cycle in the dryer).
