Smells awful!!!!!!

I have been using Tide original scent for over 25 years. It's all I use when not using Unscented! Now, the scent is different. It smells like cheap perfume, just as bad as all the other cheap detergents out there. I have always used Tide because all of the other products leave an obnoxious smell on my clothes. Now I can't even use Tide!!!!! Why did you change the scent?

reply from Consumer Care

We're so sorry that our new scent is not for you! This scent was changed based on consumer desire and research. We have moved our former Original scent to the Mountain Spring detergent and we hope this solves your problems! We know that one scent doesn't fit all. We would love to find a new one for you. Thanks for reaching out!

The best detergent out there

I love the smell of the original scent Tide, and I even use the Tide washing machine cleaner in my new LG HE washing machine. Tide is the only detergent that will be used in my washing machine. It cleans great and smells good, what more could a person want?

Strong Scent

I've always loved the smell of laundry hung outside. My grandmother was a strong Tide user, so I loved the smell Tide from the clothes line. We got ourselves a HE washer 4 years ago, and I went with the HE Powdered detergent. The smell brought back my child hood. When I ran out, I ran to the store to get some, and they were out. I had to go liquid stuff.. I thought, well give it a try. Did my next load, and when that came out of the washer, the scent was STRONG! Ughh.. I could not stand it. Even my partner mention the strong scent! I still got the bottle sitting on my shelf since I refuse to use it on my clothes. I"m back to the powdered stuff!

the stench--ahhhhhhhh

Cleaning = 4 stars. The scent--I kept asking "did they put enough for an entire truck load in just this one bottle?" Overpowering. I mean, doing laundry shouldn't make your entire entire house reek. I could smell it on clothes outside is a stiff wind. Like cheap perfume. Bought the big 110 load bottle. After 3 loads, I donated it to a shelter because I couldn't stand the stench.

Worth every penny!

I have been using this from the first day I purchased my HE washer and dryer and I will never use another detergent, even if it is cheaper. I have two young boys and they have brought some disgusting clothes in for the challenge. So far I am not disappointed. My husband is in the Army and his uniforms also have had some horrible stains and odors. I threw in a stain remover tablet with the Tide and they came out perfectly clean looking and smelling! way to go Tide!

exceptional

I have tried other brands to try and "budget" so to speak, but no other brand than Tide will get ANY stain ( grease, the famous "red mud" of NC, ink, etc) out! My husband is an assistant Fire Marshal and has to go in burned buildings- the smell is pungent- Tide does the trick EVERY time!

the BEST detergent

my mom always used tide. i never bothered to ask why but as i went to my friends houses, i saw that they also used tide. it just seems to have the "perfect balance" effect on everyone. cleans clothes very well and doesnt leave a strong scent that often sticks to your clothes and gives a really bad head ache.

Tide HE

We had a front loading washer back in 1960 and had to use regular detergent. The washer had a window in front so we would add a little detergent at a time until the suds barely showed at the water line. It wasn't easy or fun but the clothes were cleaner with that front loader. I bought my front loader back in 2002 because I remember the clothes getting cleaner, used less water and was greener. HE detergent was hard to find and Tide was the first HE detergent to hit the shelves. I bought the liquid HE as it dissolves easier. It is the ONLY HE detergent to buy.

Great Product!

Another reliable and great product from Tide - now made for HE machines! I bought it in the original scent, and while I use less - it still gets my clothes clean! I've had one shirt with multiple stains, which ALL came out! The only reason it loses a star is for the price - I do wish stores and P&G could find a way to lower the price!

Hate the fragrance

I had been using the powdered TIDE HE, but recently had to buy the liquid with original scent. The fragrance was strong and irritated both my husband's and my eyes during a load of wash (the washing machine is in the kitchen area). The dried clothes still had the perfume smell which I personally find offensive. I would really like the product without any fragrance.
