I have always thought about this. That perfume is really powerful that even after washing the Okrika more than ten times you will still perceive the scent. Okrika all the way, some of my best clothes are okrika, they're more durable than new clothes.

Yes, I love 'okrika' clothes grin In fact I buy them a lot! cool That distinctive 'okrika' scent is simply bliss to me, hmmm hmmm !! grin Come to think of it, why is it that most, if not all 'okrika' clothes smell that way, I mean those imported from outside Naija? Right from my kindergarten years till now, those second-hand clothes still smell the same. Do they spray a particular perfume on it? If yes, please what's the name of the perfume? I really need to buy the perfume. Somebody help me out please. Thanks in advance. smiley
I'm a customer. Been patronising okrika clothes since the 90d for my office and casual wears. Who has time to be taking fabrics to tailors to sew,except native wears . Very quality and affordable

Comfort shampoo is actually to make fabrics soft and gives them that fluffy feel

Newsflash OP, what you're missing is the smell of mothballs, industrial fabric sprays and disinfectants that is why "Okrika Wake-up" smell the same the world over and not forgetting Formaldehyde.

I beg to disagree. If it's industrial fabric spray like u said new clothes would smell same way.
