Abstract

Low cost, highly aqueous, thickened heavy duty liquid laundry detergent compositions are provided. Such compositions contain relatively low levels of surfactant materials, a formate-based viscosity-enhancing agent, a selected type of thickening perfume and relatively large amounts of water. Only minimal amounts of other detergent composition adjuvants are permitted in such compositions.
