A concentrated, aqueous fabric softening composition comprises (a) an ester-linked
quaternary ammonium fabric softening material comprising at least one mono-ester
linked component and at least one tri-ester linked component, the material being
derived from fatty groups having an iodine value of from 0 to 3 and (b) an ester-linked
quaternary ammonium fabric softening material comprising at least one mono-ester
linked component and at least one tri-ester linked component, the material being
derived from fatty groups having an iodine value of from 20 to 140 wherein the
total amount of unsaturated monoester component of material (b) is from 4 to 20%
by weight of the total amount of (a) and (b).
