I use All free and clear. It is the only detergent I have used so far that has no scent. Even tide's version of this still has a smell. I dislike the smell of any laundry detergent. I also dislike the smell of dryer sheets and liquid fabric softener as well, so I never use them.

Once in a while I'll run my towels or anything that smells musty through a wash cycle using ammonia instead of detergent. Obviously, you don't mix this with bleach but it works great for removing musty smells from fabrics. You have to be careful of the fabric types you use it on though.
