The "new clean scent" is aweful. It smells like cheap perfume, and I don't want that on my dishes and silverware. Who thought that was a good idea? Bring back the original please!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We'll be sure to share this with our team, and if you would like to share more with us, please feel free to give us a call at (800) 725-3296.
New scent is awful. I’ve been a hardcore believer in your product for the past 30 years and use it for many cleaning activities beyond just dishes. Even used dawn to clean contaminated wildlife. However the new scent is unpleasant and even offensive. We just returned a large bottle and are looking for a new brand. A 5 star product is now a 1 star product.

Thanks for leaving your review on Dawn Original's new scent, and for your loyalty these past 30 years! We're certainly aware of the potential impact this scent change may have on fans of our original blue liquid. While there aren't plans to bring back the old scent to the US market, the feedback we're receiving from consumers like yourself is taken very seriously by our Dawn Team. All of it helps us improve our products and ensure that we deliver the best possible hand dishwashing experience to you and others. We'd be glad to make this right, and hope you'll give us a call at (800) 725-3296.
Classic dawn in an easy to squeeze bottle. The design of the bottle is wonderful and you don’t have to flip a top just squeeze and go. Has the smell of the regular dawn with the top. This bottle makes it way easier to clean dishes.

I have been a Dawn Ultra user for 30 plus years. I have been unable to find my next jug of it, although I have found Dawn now in about 10 different versions with new scents, new power, yada yada. You lost me as a customer. What was wrong with the original Dawn Ultra.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We deeply appreciate your long-time loyalty to Dawn, and we're very sorry you're not happy with the update to Dawn Ultra Original's scent. This new Clean Scent was chosen with a group of current Dawn users, and we do apologize that you're not agreeing with our research. Our R&D Team will receive your review, so they know how much this change has affected you. Just as you noted, we do make many different dish soaps, and we hope you'll consider giving something else a try. Please, call us for more assistance with this, at 1 (800) 725-3296. We're phone-side Mondays through Fridays, from 9 AM to 6 PM, EST.
I've been loyal to Dawn for, I dunno, two decades, but that may end. This new "EZ Squeeze" packaging addresses a problem that doesn't exist, in my opinion. I always decant my dish soap into a glass pump bottle that I keep on my countertop. That's much, much harder with the new design. With sufficient force I can twist off the whole lid, but it's a pain. Even if I didn't decant into a different container, I'd still prefer the old design. It looked fine, stood upright, was easy to open to add water and get maximum use out of those last few glops left in a seemingly empty bottle. This new cap design uses much more plastic which is environmentally tone-deaf. I think after this bottle is up I'll be checking out Palmolive, or Ajax, or Joy.

Thanks for being loyal to Dawn. We're sorry you're not a fan of the EZ-Squeeze style bottle, and we'll be sure to share your review with our Dawn Team. It may help to know that we do still sell Dawn in the original style bottles. In the future, be sure to look for the original style, and not purchase the EZ-Squeeze design. In fact, look for one of our bigger Dawn bottles, which are great to keep in our storage, and use to fill your refillable glass pump bottle. If there's more we can do to help you with your purchase, remember we're here Mondays through Fridays, from 9 AM to 6 PM, EST. Give us a call at 1 (800) 725-3296.
The new scent is so overbearing the smell really bothers me. I will have to change brands due to smell. Please bring back the old scent.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I can never buy Dawn again, that new fresh scent has made me break out in hives, and I had to use my rescue inhaler, because it’s simultaneously caused an asthma attack! Once I was able to breathe again, I’m immediately leaving this review. Maybe I might try your fresh and clean unscented lightly scented type, but if it’s more expensive, I’m not buying it. Ugh, waste of money I had to throw out an entire huge bottle! Dawn was the best until you did this, now I’ve got go to a different brand. Whatever you do, don’t use it on animals that you’re going to rescue because this is going to hurt them, hopefully there’s not an oil spill that is needed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Smells disgusting! I hate the new fresh scent! We've accidentally purchased it twice and thrown it away both times. Please bring back the original in the ez squeeze option. Blech!
