dōTERRA On Guard® Laundry Detergent
This is a concentrated liquid laundry detergent built around the On Guard blend — Wild Orange, Clove, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus and Rosemary — rather than a synthetic laundry fragrance. One 32 fl oz (947 ml) bottle is rated for up to 64 loads.
Plant-based surfactants and enzymes do the washing work, formulated without synthetic fragrance or dyes, so the On Guard aroma is the only scent in the mix — warm and spiced, with clove and cinnamon leading and a clean citrus-and-herb lift from wild orange, eucalyptus and rosemary.
It's dosed straight from the cap rather than a separate scoop — a quarter cap for an HE machine, half a cap for a conventional top-loader, more for a heavily soiled wash. It's colour-safe across the temperature range, so it doesn't need separating from a normal wash routine.

Safety
For laundry use only. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes; rinse well with water if this happens. Test colourfastness on a hidden area before treating a stain directly. If pregnant, nursing or under a doctor's care, check with your practitioner before use.

Common questions

Up to 64, from the 32 fl oz (947 ml) bottle.

A quarter cap for an HE machine, half a cap for a conventional top-loader, and more for a heavily soiled load.
Does it leave a strong scent on clothes?
It carries the On Guard aroma — warm and spiced, with a clean citrus-and-herb lift — rather than a synthetic laundry fragrance, so it reads differently from a supermarket detergent.
