The present invention relates to fabric treatment compositions comprising at least one or more cationic silicone polymers, comprising one or more polysiloxane units and one or more quaternary nitrogen moieties, and an nitrogen-free silicone polymer wherein the ratio by weight of the cationic silicone polymer to the nitrogen-free silicone polymer is from 10:1 to 0.01:1, preferably from 5:1 to 0.05:1, and more preferably from 1:1 to 0.1:1. A process for preparing such compositions, a method of treating substrates and the use of such compositions are also described.
