Smells like cheap body wash
on November 26, 2024
Posted by: Notafanofnewscent
I always buy dawn dish soap because it lasts longer and I used to like the original scent. I am not a fan of the new scent, it smells like cheap body wash.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're sorry to hear you are not a fan of the new scent. Please rest assured that we value your feedback greatly, and we will relay it to our Research and Development team.

Smell gets on food!
on January 7, 2025
Posted by: Renamoo
This soap with the New scent is terrible. The scent stays on the dishes, no matter how well we rinse them and I can taste it in the food. Everyone in my household thought it was just me being paranoid, but one day someone actually could taste the soap in the food too! I'm scared to try the other products with scent!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Your loyalty means a lot to us, so we're very sorry for your disappointment with the Dawn Original Dishwashing Liquid scent change. This is the first scent change for Dawn Original in over 10 years, but please be assured that we value your feedback greatly and are sharing it with the rest of our Dawn Team. Consumer feedback is vital in helping us improve our products and ensuring that we deliver the best possible experience to our consumers; it’s also instrumental in guiding the Dawn Team as they continue to work on future innovations. In regard to the scent lingering and affecting your food, we wouldn't expect this to be your experience, however, if the soap isn't completely rinsed off, or if the dishes have become porous, it is possible. If certain items always pick up a flavor, they're probably worn to the point of being porous and should be washed by hand. It might help to know that cast iron and plastic items can absorb flavors. To remove the scent/taste, please soak the dishes in hot water with some distilled white vinegar added. We hope this was helpful, but we'd like to learn more about your experience, try to make things right, and tell you more about our Dawn Free & Clear version that offers our lightest scent. Please give us a call at (800) 725-3296 so we can help you best.

Horrible Scent
on February 15, 2025
Posted by: LifeLongCustomer No More
This was the only dish soap I've every known. 50 years. The new scent lingers on everything. You can smell it in our food and drinks because it doesn't wash off. It makes you hands smell for hours. It gets inside of your nose and you can't stop smelling it. I lived through the New Coke debacle. This might be just as bad. Too bad by the time dawn fixes this I will have already found a new soap. You have the superior product with a huge loyal customer base. All you have to do is not screw it up. Failed!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

New Scent Disaster
on February 2, 2024
Posted by: Changeitback
from Buffalo ny
Ask my family- I swore by Dawn Original for years. For more than just dishes, I’m talking stains, bathing pets, I even used it to remove mascara and costume makeup. I was concerned that I wouldn’t be able to use it for multiple things anymore when I went to the store and saw “new fresh scent”. And now I’ve moved from concern to sad because this new scent is absolutely nauseating. And I highly doubt the new perfume of it is safe for bathing pets anymore either. I’m not even going to be able to use what I just bought.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

New scent?? But I love the old scent!
on February 2, 2024
Posted by: ExDawnlover
I have used Dawn for 15 years because I love it's smell and grease cutting power but I do not like the *New clean scent! If I wanted a strong perfume soap I would buy Gain. I really hope y'all will keep the original scent on shelves too if not I'll find a different kind.

on February 25, 2024
Posted by: Angieee

The new scent is horrible and I’m pretty sure iMm allergic to it. I washed dishes with it, the smell is overbearing and shortly my skin was itchy and inflamed. I will not be buying it again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Awful Clean Scent
on February 27, 2024
Posted by: JBelle
from Chicago
The new "Clean Scent" is awful. I've had to switch brands. It is way too strong and the smell stays on everything long after you've rinsed and rinsed. For people like me who are sensitive to perfumes, this is a definite no-go.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Terrible New Scent
on March 1, 2024
Posted by: zathras110
The new scent is horrible - i will never buy this product again. 1. Fresh scent is more appropriate for clothing/fabric, not cookware 2. Scent is way way way way too strong
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from dawn-dish.comBy Customer Care, March 5, 2024

Extensive research and consumer testing goes into our products to create appealing features and the superior cleaning ability our fans know and love. Because preferences do vary from person to person, we offer a variety of different product versions. Another option you may like is our Dawn Free & Clear EZ-Squeeze unscented dish soap. Your satisfaction is very important to us, and we’d like to talk with you more to further help. Please give our Dawn Team a call at 1-800-725-3296 from 9AM -- 6PM EST Monday–Friday.
