Terrible and Strong ‘New Clean Scent’
on April 8, 2024
Posted by: Roxygrrl2002
The new ‘clean scent’ is overwhelming and smells vile. You can’t even wash the smell off of your dishes . Why is the perfume 10x stronger now??? The old scent and level of scent needs a comeback asap
I’ve used this for so long, and love the new convenient bottle. One reason I I use it is the lack of scent, but now it is scented and triggers a migraine complete with intense nausea. It smells of a too strong mens musky cologne.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

If I could give zero stars I would. This clean scent smells terrible. The smell is very nauseating. Same as scented trash bags. I love the squeeze bottle and I am disappointed I can’t get it in the true original scent not the clean scent.

I’ve been loyal to Dawn dish soap for years. It’s gentle, yet always works well, cutting through grease and grime, with a subtle scent…until I opened my new bottle. What did you do to the original scent? This new “clean smell” is overpowering and smells like laundry detergent. I don’t want my dishes to smell like my laundry. What’s more, how is a strong, perfume-y smell any good for the environment? Wait, it’s not. Why do you companies always have to ruin a good thing? Whoever your new guy is that wanted to make their mark in the company and went ahead with this horrible decision needs to be knocked down a peg. This was not a needed change and I suspect many others will agree. For the first time in years, I’ll be switching to a new dish soap. You lost me as a customer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

If I could give this no stars, I would! Just like most everyone else agrees, this new scent is awful!! Original Dawn was one of my favorite smells. Why mess with perfection?!? When I realized what had been done, I returned the 2 “new” bottles I bought and found the last few original scent bottles. After these are gone, you’ll lose yet another customer. I don’t want to try lemon or unscented (seems to be the recommendation by Dawn now). By the looks of these reviews, I’m not the only one who can’t stand this new scent. Please bring back the original!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am horrified by the new scent!! Why oh why would P&G ruin a great product by adding scent? Many of us are scent-sensitive - this new scent caused hives on my hands and arms almost immediately after first use. Not to mention the headache this awful scent caused. I am beyond disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The new Fresh Scent is cloying & really off-putting for me. The scent stays on hands, dish cloths, etc. I liked the old fragrance & REALLY DO not like the new scent. Will not be buying again. I've used Original scent Dawn for many, many years, even bragged about it but no more!

New scent in 2024 ruined the experience. My whole family used dawn original almost exclusively. From just dish soap to cleaning recipies. I bought a bulk size bottle without realizing it had been changed from the beloved classic. I already refilled my in sink dispenser so I can't return it. I won't even buy this product to donate anymore. I can't believe I had to search the internet for what ruined to a lifelong product. When I reached out to some family members telling everyone to hoard the old formula when they find it they were in disbelief that a legacy product had been ruined.
