It clearly states that UV/sunlight exposure is crucial for the pleasant “dried linen” smell, and half of the northern hemisphere does not receive enough UV during winter (check any UV/vitamin D map). Personal anecdotes notwithstanding; I’m not saying clothes won’t dry in the winter, you just won’t get the same results.
