Abstract
Described is a water-soluble solid-phase ironing aid-freshening composition for use in forming controllably dimensioned tablets, which have controlled weights and densities and which are conveniently added to the water-containing steam chamber of a steam iron. The use of the tablets produced from the composition enables textiles which are ironed to be freshened and de-wrinkled. The composition includes (i) a support substance; (ii) a tablet binder substance; and (iii) a fragrance composition and, optionally, a silicone resin, a chelating agent and/or a surfactant.
