                    following groups: -(CH2)n- and/or -[CH(CH3)CH2]-;Y                
                    is selected from the following groups: = N+-(A)q;                 
                    -(CH2)n-N+-(A)q;-B-(CH2)n-N+-(A)2; -(phenyl)-N+-(A)q;             
                    -(B-phenyl)-N+-(A)q; with n being from about 1 to                 
                    about 4, wherein each A is independently selected                 
                    from the following groups: H; C1-5 alkyl; R1;                      
                    -(R2O)z- H; -(CH2)xCH3; phenyl, and substituted

                    defined as hereinbefore; q = 1 or 2; m + p + q                    
                    = 4; total z per molecule is from about 3 to about                
                    50; and X- is an anion which is compatible with                   
                    fabric softener actives and adjunct ingredients;                  
                    and

               wherein said electrolyte and said phase stabilizer,                    
               when present, provide at least one improvement selected                
               from: lower dilution viscosity; the same, or better,                   
               stability with less principal solvent; and/or the use                  
               of principal solvents with a ClogP outside the range of                
               from about 0.15 to about 0.64.
