Hate the new formula!!

I hate the new formula. The old formula was perfect; subtle scent and cleansed my hands without drying them out. This new scent is too strong for me to even try it. I don't care how good of a product something is; if it has a strong fragrance, I will not use it. Until the old formula comes back, I'll be painstakingly trying to find a replacement. I just don't understand companies wanting to change something that's worked for years.
I have bought this soap for years and years and loved it, specifically because the light scent did not bother me The new scent makes me sick. I literally had to throw out a whole bottle. Please change it back.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Oh no! We're truly sorry that our products scent has missed the mark with you! We'll be sure to share this information with our team.
I have used the aloe vera softsoap for years because it is the only handsoap I have found that does not result in sandpaper, eczema-riddled, dishydrotic skin on my hands. The new scent has ruined my go-to product. I'm not sure what I will do now, other than buy up as many packages of the old product as I can. Why ruin this product by adding a strong scent when you already have so many other scented items?
Pros: Easy To Use
Cons: Dries Skin, Unpleasant Smell

I have purchased Softsoap Milk & Honey for years. They've recently changed the scent. It is horrible. The old scent was perfect, just subtle enough. This new scent is way too strong. I am getting headaches. Please change this back.
Cons: Hate new Milk & Honey scent. Terrible., Unpleasant Smell

Like many other reviewers here, I've used this hand soap exclusively because of the very light fragrance and because it doesn't dry out my hands with frequent use. I've even been buying it by the case. But this new scent is really awful and way too strong. It's so bad, and the new logo/label is so unattractive that I thought I received knockoffs. Fortunately I got a good whiff of it before I used it so I'm not stuck with it on my hands for hours. I don't understand this corporate need to constantly change the products that work and that keep people as loyal customers. Now comes the un-fun task of trying to find an acceptable replacement.
Cons: Unattractive Packaging, Unpleasant Smell

The soap itself is great, but I cannot unlock the top, even after trying every U-Tube tip and trick. If only there was an easier way to open these.
