A textile care composition comprising nitrogen-containing cellulose ethers of the formula (I) <?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?>((R-O-)<SUB>3</SUB>R<SUB>cell</SUB>)<SUB>y </SUB> (I) <?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?> herein R<SUB>cell </SUB>is an anhydroglucose radical (C<SUB>6</SUB>H<SUB>10</SUB>O<SUB>5</SUB>), y is from 80 to 65 000; R is a radical of the formula (II) wherein each of a and b is independently 2 or 3; c is 1, 2 or 3; each of m and p is independently an integer from 0 to 10; n is an integer from 0 to 3, q is 0 or 1; each of R<SUP>1 </SUP>and R<SUP>2 </SUP>is independently hydrogen or a C<SUB>1-4 </SUB>alkyl radical; R<SUP>3 </SUP>is hydrogen, -NR<SUP>1</SUP>R<SUP>2</SUP>, a carboxylic acid group or a sodium carboxylate, potassium carboxylate or ammonium carboxylate group, with the proviso that R<SUP>3 </SUP>is hydrogen when q is 0, and with the further proviso that n in at least one of the R radicals is greater than 0 or the -R<SUP>3 </SUP>moiety in at least one of the R radicals represents -NR<SUP>1</SUP>R<SUP>2</SUP>. These textile care compositions impart to textiles improved softness, increased shine and color brilliance, odor freshening, and reduction in the creasing behavior and in the static charge.
