My mom used Pine-Sol and I grew up with that clean pine scent in our house. Just last week I happily used the last of a bottle. Yesterday I got a new bottle, not noticing the New Scent notice on it. While cleaning the kitchen floor I realized there was a strange smell. I took a closer look at the bottle and saw the notice at that time. Thinking I might get use to it I finished the floor. By the time my wife came home I was sick of it and she asked me what that awful smell was. By bedtime she had a head ache from the smell that seemed to Last Longer. I took it back and am looking for a store that might have some of the old Pine-Sol left in stock. This reminds me of the time NEW COKE came out. Awful.

I wrote a review when the new long lasting original pine sol came out and was hoping the original would be brought back. As of the present moment this has not happened. I am in search of a new pine sol and I believe Kroger's may have one that is pretty close. I hope this helps someone who is searching for a new cleaner.

Pinesol has been used by family for generations. It was a must have so we always stocked up. However I noticed the smell has changed and does not leave a fresh scent, now when I use it to clean the floors, It smells terrible, for lack of a better word. I will no longer purchase this scent. I dont care for the smell it leaves. It saddens me it is like breaking a tradition. I do hope that you bring back the other scent.

I thought the cleaning crew had picked up the wrong cleaner and were using one of those super cheep over scented ones. Your new scent is not pine at all and is quite unpleasent and worse it promises to last longer! I am going to have to remop the floors with vinegar...

I love the original smell of pine-sol. I clean with it all the time. I however can't stand the new smell. it says original with new longer lasting smell. It doesn't last any longer and it stinks. Please bring back what has been used in my home for decades

Have used PineSol for years on all of my surface cleaning, as did my grandmother and mother (my children use it also). The smell of PineSol is the reason I use it!!!!!!!!! When I poured it I noticed an odd, somewhat nauseating smell. I even checked the label to be sure I had picked up the original scent. It said original scent, but smells more like another brand of cleaner, which I tried but tossed out because of the unappealing smell. WHAT HAPPENED?????? Unless the original "original scent" becomes available, I will no longer be purchasing this product.

I've been using this cleaner for well over 20 years. So I just put the same bottle in the shopping cart like always. As soon as I opened the bottle at home, I knew it was different. Doesn't smell like Pine-Sol at all. I looked at the label and saw the "improved" and was kind of shocked. I decided to use it anyway and used it in the normal manner I use to clean my bathroom. The smell was awful and it lingered for a long time. The bathroom didn't smell clean, it was some strange odor you could smell from outside the room. I had to scrub the entire room with lemon scented ammonia to get rid of it. It's pretty sad that something I've bought for more than 2 decades, I'll never purchase again.

The ORIGINAL scent is my favorite and is what I was EXPECTING when purchasing 2 large bottles. Nothing on the label indicated that there was a "NEW, original scent". Labeling the bottles "Original" is VERY misleading and disappointing to the faithful customers that have purchased your products for many, many years. Had I realized that the "Original" labeled PineSol wasn't really "Original", I would have purchased a different product.

I love pine-sol, i actually look forward to cleaning because of the awesome smell of pine-sol. When my giant costco pine-sol finally ran out I bought a new one..opened it.. cried and returned it. There is nothing original about the new original pine-sol, it has a horrible, strong, perfumey, laundry, yucky smell, that gave me an instant headache. I have now resorted to generic knock off pine-sol which doesn't clean as well but at least the scent resembles pine-sol. I cannot understand why a product that has been around as long as pine-sol would change one of the fundamental reasons that people buy it. I buy pine-sol for the smell..period. Lots of other cleaners clean just as well, but I love love love the smell of Pine-sol, and now it is just plain horrible. I also do not understand the excuse of the limited supply of pine oil when the generic brands all seem to have an adequate supply. When the actual "original" pine-sol returns I will be an enthusiastic, lifelong customer, until then, I and tens of thousands of others will be searching for the closest generic. All I can say to Pine-sol corporate is, did you not learn from "new coke"...really, new does not always mean better, it has been a popular product for years for a reason and now you have ruined it.

I just purchased a new bottle of Original Pine Sol. My old bottle has been around awhile. When did you change the formula. It's thinner and no longer has a laundry recommendation. The old bottle had active ingredient: Pine Oil; the new bottle active ingredient has:Glycolid Acid? Why the change to a good product?
