Fabric softener

A fabric softener composition, comprising:

• a. a conditioning amount of dispersed water-insoluble softener component particles having a size such that about 40% to about 50% of the particles pass through a filter having an average pore diameter of about 0.5 microns, said particles comprising a mixture of
• i. from about 2 parts to about 10 parts by weight of a substantially water-insoluble quaternary ammonium compound of the formula ##EQU1## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each hydrocarbyl groups containing from about 1 to about 25 carbon atoms, the sum of R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 being at least 22 carbon atoms, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are each hydrocarbyl groups containing from about 1 to about 6 carbon atoms, X is an anion and n is an integer from 1 to about 3;
• ii. from about 0.1 part to about 2 parts by weight of a substantially water-insoluble straight chain alcohol containing from about 8 to about 20 carbon atoms, the weight ratio of said quaternary compound to said alcohol being in the range of from about 100:1 to about 3:1;
• b. from about 0.1% to about 2.0% by weight of a nonionic surfactant containing a lipophilic hydrocarbyl group of from about 6 to about 20 equivalent carbon atoms and from about 5 to about 15 ethylene oxide moieties;
• c. from about 0.1% to about 3% by weight of a water-soluble ethoxylated quaternary ammonium compound of the formula ##EQU2## wherein R is a substantially straight chain alkyl group of from about 14 to about 20 carbon atoms;
• x and y are each integers of from 1 to 5, the sum of x + y being from about 2 to about 6;
• X is an anion and n is an integer from 1 to 3;
• and
• d. the balance comprising a water-soluble liquid carrier.
