The new scent is terrible! Please go back to the old scent. It was perfect! There was no reason to change it.

What's that horrible smell?
on October 14, 2024
Posted by: Interplanetjanet
from The South
I hate the new scent. I see from skimming the review section I'm not alone. It's pretty aggravating to see the corporate response. Telling people their dishes are worn, basically telling people they aren't washing their dishes correctly? At first I thought, I'll just buy the unscented(when I can find it)....nah I'll just find a new brand. This is the biggest fiasco since the New Coke incident of 1985.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Dawn disgusting, horrible new scent
on June 17, 2024

from Boise ID
'New clean scent' is absolutely disgusting. My wife and I both can't stand it. We've been using Dawn for years. Never again with this horrible smell. Switching to Palmolive. So sad that P&G ruined a perfect product. Bring back the previous original scent PLEASE!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

STEER CLEAR IF YOU HAVE ASTHMA OR ANIMALS
on June 18, 2024
Posted by: SHD1
Had an asthma attack this morning...why you ask because Dawn is STILL selling this god awful scent that has been reviewed awfully for months. My husband accidentally picked it up since it looks identical except for one little area that says "New Clean Scent" and now here I am. I reviewed this awful scent back in January! DO BETTER DAWN. LISTEN TO YOUR CUSTOMERS. I'M FURIOUS. I shouldn't have to suffer at your hands. Even my cat won't touch its bowl after being cleaned with this since it smells like laundry detergent. Is this awful scent the only one available for the EZ squeeze bottle? The bottle has been amazing, but shouldn't be the only scent. If Dawn is going to keep this scent, make it obvious, change the color DO SOMETHING to make it obviously distinguishable!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from dawn-dish.comBy Customer Care, June 20, 2024
We hope you're feeling better now, SHD1, and are terribly sorry that you experienced an asthma attack. Your feedback about the scent as well as our bottle graphics have been noted and will be shared with the appropriate teams here at Dawn. While all our ingredients and products are thoroughly evaluated to be safe for humans and their pets when used as directed, we recognize there could be sensitivities to a particular ingredient or formulation. If you haven't already, we recommend discontinuing use of your Dawn Original bottle and in its place try Dawn Free & Clear, Unscented, which is also available in an EZ-Squeeze bottle. It has all the cleaning power of Dawn without any added fragrance. Please call us at (800) 725-3296, so we can further help you!

Bye-bye, Dawn. You Stink! Literally
on July 14, 2024

Awful smell. Why why why. I don’t care how good it is, do not want or like that smell. Will not go the free and clear one. Loved the Blue Orginal the way it was. FYI I do not trust any review associated with free product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I Don't Get It
on July 17, 2024
Posted by: Long Time Supporter
from Rapid City, SD
Having a robust sense of smell, I tend toward lower scented products. In the past, I've appreciated Dawn Original's strong grease-cutting power, light scent, and inexpensive cost. Multiple generations of my family have used the product religiously for decades.
I'm discouraged they've changed the original to jump on the bandwagon of strongly perfumed products. I don't see why it's needed, since they could offer scented alternatives to appeal to that market.
As a loyal customer, I'm disappointed that Dawn's response to complaints has been to accuse customers of having a 'unique sensitivity' when describing feeling nauseous. I also felt nauseated by the smell and was grossed out when I realized it was coming from my dish soap.
While I understand change can be hard to accept, I don't see their EZ Squeeze Free and Clear fragrance-free version a comparable replacement, as has been offered by Dawn. The product costs more because of the more expensive bottle type. And because it's a 'specialty' version, it's less widely available.
I just want a simple, inexpensive, yet effective product to clean my dishes. And that's why I've been passionate about Dawn Original in the past. I will try Free and Clear, but please recognize that your product no longer offers the ease and sensibility that it used to.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Awful smell
on July 19, 2024

The original dawn was so good, but the new scent in this product is awful! It smells like they dumped a bottle of gas station perfume into this. Way too strong, lingers on your hands and dishes after rinsing. Will be finding a different soap. Please bring the original scent back
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
