Terrible new smell
on January 5, 2025
Posted by: Kkzz
from Seattle, Wa
The new scent makes dishes smell like you paid a chain smoking dollar general worker to wash them with whatever chemicals they could find on the shelves
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Another down-vote for the new fragrance
on January 9, 2025
Posted by: PrimaryDishDoer
Add me to the list of people who hate the new scent. Appreciate the replies from Customer Care telling us to rinse our dishes better, but when a web search auto-completes "hate the new smell" with "of dawn" then you clearly have a problem. Obviously taste in smells are individual, but the overpowering fragrance for a daily-use item is just thoroughly unnecessary no matter what the actual smell is. This stuff LINGERS. I love Dawn in general so will try to find a version that is less smelly. But folks, this was a bad call, and I would be delighted to see you reverse it.

BRING BACK THE OLD SCENT
on January 9, 2025
Posted by: kayem02
from Michigan
The new scent is overwhelmingly strong and now makes this product smell like the store-brand version (i.e. cheaply made). The scent stays on dishes and you can taste it when eating or drinking from items cleaned with this soap. It is truly nauseating and headache-inducing. I will no longer purchase this product while it continues to be scented like it currently is and will look for a substitute.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have been using Dawn for years. Now, they go and change the original scent and I will not buy it again. It gives me a headache. It is awful!

Does a great job cleaning but stinks. I have to burn a candle after washing to get the smell out of the kitchen.
I would recommend this to a friend!

New scent makes me vomit.
on March 10, 2025
Posted by: Alexinconcept
Dawn dish soaps new scent is absolutely sickening. As you can see by many of the product reviews, people are NOT happy and for good reason. I have bad sensory issues, causing many cleaning products to be off the table for me. Dawn dish soap was my favorite scent however, and I always made sure I got it over every other cleaning product. One day, I opened up a new bottle and was absolutely violated by the terrible new scent, almost like cough drops. What happened to saving the ducks? It seems more like you're trying to kill them with this new scent. Look, I get you might not want to discontinue that scent and that's fine. However, could you at least make a product with the ACTUAL original scent? I am more than willing to pay even more for it, so PLEASE please give us back the old scent!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Posted by: Jamie987654
Our entire family is sick from the new scent. We switched soaps today. So sad!!!
Response from dawn-dish.comBy Customer Care, March 19, 2025
We're very sorry to hear about your family's experience with our new scent, Jamie. Quality and safety have always been at the forefront of everything we do, and while scent preferences will always vary from person to person, we would not expect anyone to get sick when using it as directed. This is because all of our products go through extensive testing to ensure safety with proper use. Your wellbeing means a lot to us, so please discontinue using the Dishwashing Soap if you haven't done so already. This isn't something we take lightly, so we'd like to make a report to our Quality and Safety Team, make sure your voice is heard about the change, and tell you more about our new Dawn EZ-Squeeze Free & Clear Dish Soap as it has the cleaning power of Dawn you know, love, and trust, yet is unscented. Please give us a call (800) 725-3296.
