The ONLY reason I gave this product 1 star is because it won't let me give it zero or a half star!! This new scent stinks! I have always bought Pine-sol because it's a great cleaner and it leaves your house smelling fresh and clean for a long time. I always bought the biggest bottles because I use it for cleaning EVERYTHING so when my big bottle was gone a couple weeks ago I bought more like I had so many times and to my surprise it smelled different. I saw that it said "new longer lasting scent" and I've tried to give it a chance, but I just hate it. It smells like a cross between men's cologne and laundry detergent. I've poured most of the bottle down the drain just to get rid of it while cleaning my disposal, and now I will have to find something else to clean with. I used Pine-sol for absolutely everything and I will miss it. But as long as they have this awful scent I will no longer be buying it!!

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.

Was looking to replace a bottle of another favorite cleaner, but could not find it at my favorite box store so I decided to purchase a bottle of original scent pine-sol. Imagine my delight when I went to clean and discovered an awesome new scent. I love this!. It made me want to clean my whole house just to have it smell nice. I will be buying this product from now on. Good work people.

I fell in love with the Sparkling Wave Pine Sol. But the last bottle I bought has a new scent that smells horrible. It's not refreshing as the original. I will no longer buy Pine Sol products. I see they have changed all of the fragrances that no one likes. What gives?? Is there anyplace you can still buy the original and new scent for those who prefer the original scent? You are going to lose a lot of $$ and customers. OUCH

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My mother always used it at home, and so I have always used it also. I love the fresh clean pine scent, it makes the house smell fresh, cleans dirt off surfaces ie: the tile and wood floors, toilet bowl, and even sinks! And no rinsing, just dilute with water in a bucket according to directions on bottle and your home will be clean and smell fresh!! Smells wonderful!

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 am 45 years old and have loved the truly original Pine-Sol Pine Scent since I was a child. I grew up in an old Victorian home without air conditioning or ceiling fans. We used to open the windows to get a nice cross-breeze throughout the house. We always used Pine-Sol; and there was nothing better than cleaning the house, especially during the spring and summer and into autumn, and then being outdoors and smelling the fragrance of Pine-Sol drifting out of the windows between the sheer curtains as they fluttered with the breeze. The fragrance has always taken me back. The pine oil is also an excellent cleanser. As an adult, I have always used Pine-Sol and have used it throughout the home for cleaning. Even though I love the steam cleaner for my floors, I actually stopped using it just because I wanted that clean smell of Pine-Sol throughout my house. With this change, however, the smell is gone; the cleanliness is gone. It's genuinely a change for the worse. In a time of economic distress, when the quality of so much else is deteriorating, this is the one product that I thought would never change. Sadly, it, too, has succumbed to the dustbin of fading memories and times that were. I certainly can't force a change, but I can express my deep disappointment and hope that my voice will be heard. If not, the sound of my coins will certainly not rattle within Clorox's bank account anymore. I will not buy this new formula ever again; and since I don't care for any of the other fragrances, I just won't be buying Pine-Sol at all. I will revert to my steam cleaner and save my money with water from the tap; and since I have a well, it won't cost me a dime. It's truly a sad day in America.

They have now put less pine oil in their product and it smells like any other cleaner out there now. It is missing the originality it used to have. I loved the smell of the genuine stuff and the amount of pine oil. BRING BACK the ORIGINAL SCENT and ingredients i.e.: pine oil

I have used Pine-Sol for years. I just bought a bottle, which is labeled just like the 'Original' Pine-Sol. The product is the same color as the original pine scented Pine-Sol. BUT it is not a PINE scent, but some gross perfume-y, overpowering smell. The bottle reeks, even when closed. The bottle is deceptive. It has the same 'Original' label, and a small red 'NEW' buried in it. Why mess with something that works. The NEW smell is the most disgusting, overpowering, bad smell ever. What happened to your Original pine smell. I will not purchase your product again. I will stay with the house-brand Pine cleaner. It is what your 'Original' product was for years. I know you won't post this. BUT you should go back to the PINE scent and dump the perfumes.

As I was reading the other coments about how the smell reminded them of home I could see my sweet Mama mopping the old floors and specially in the summer with the breeze blowing, smell that clean smell of Pine Sol. It was all she used and it has been handed down from my Grandmama, to Mama to me and now to my daughters. The only thing is I don't think they like the NEW Pine Sol either. So for all of us that the smell makes us think of home a long time ago we would love to have that smell back again. It's probably hard for someone to realize what such memories mean if you still have your Mom. My went home in 2000, but I can still recall those memories! Awww the smell of a clean house, nothing like it!!! Well except for Grandchildren!!!! God Bless
