Cuts grease but stinks!

I kept wondering what happened to the original Dawn scent. Couldn't figure out why the smell nearly made me nauseous every time I did dishes. Decided to research online if any other scents exist, and found out this is just "refershing rain." If rain stank like that, I'd move to a desert! Dumping this for original Dawn scent.

So Disappointed with the Scent

I love Dawn and have been a dedicated user many years, I'm 61. I was so disappointed when I bought this new bottle of platinum. This scent is unbearable to me. I have fragrance allergies and this is definitely triggering me. So sad to have this happen. I use green for non grease and platinum for greasy dishes/pans. I actually had to give this to my husband for the outside Dawn we keep for the crab pot and anything else that needs cleaning. He uses Dawn in his sprayer for bug control - works great or killing insects. Please work on this scent.

Horrible smell

The new scent is overpowering and the smell does not wash off easily. The reason I originally switched to Dawn was that the scent was minimal. This scent is awful and gives everyone in our house horrible headaches as we are very sensitive to smells. Most products we purchase are unscented. I have washed my hands multiple times today and the scent is still as strong as when I used the product. Please bring back the original scent as this one will be tossed out after shopping this week.

We appreciate that you made the switch to using Dawn, and are sorry the Fresh Rain scent is triggering headaches for you and your family members. Extensive research and consumer testing goes into our products to create appealing dish soap options for our consumers, and our products are tested to be safe when used as directed. Because sensitivity is occurring, we recommend that you discontinue use of this fragrance. Since you mentioned that you would prefer an unscented option, we recommend instead using our new Dawn Free & Clear Fragrance-Free dish soap in the EZ-Squeeze bottle. We value your loyalty, and would like to gather a few more details to further assist you. Please give our Dawn Team a call at 1-800-725-3296 from 9AM -- 6PM EST Monday–Friday.

What’s that funky smell

This review is in general. Dawn I have come across so many people posting that Dawn makes their dishcloths and sponges smell bad funky. I never experienced it until recently. I couldn’t understand what was causing the funky smell around my sink. I change my dishcloth daily and put my sponge in the dishwasher so I know they are clean.. I used bleach in the sink and cleaned the garbage disposal but still smelled that nasty smell. Smelling the dishcloth after doing the dishes and it was so unpleasant. What is causing this issue? So many people are asking the same question. I use Dawn in a lot of different ways Dishes, laundry, spot removal, windows because it’s a great product but the after smell is just becoming too much for me. Any suggestions?

This doesn't sound like the experience we want you to have, so we're thankful you brought this to our attention. Please know our products go through strict quality checks to ensure they provide you with a successful dishwashing experience, so we'd like to provide some helpful info and see how we can help further. When dishwater is left standing, cooling down from hot speeds up the spoiling of food waste on dishes, it can cause a layer of smelly slime on your dishcloth. To clean a smelly dishcloth, launder the cloth in hot water and detergent with bleach. To prevent it from happening, try adding the dish soap to hot running water (115 Degrees F / 47 Degrees C), then swish the water gently to disperse the detergent throughout the water before adding dishes, and don't allow the washcloth to soak in dishwater. We hope this helps, and if we can assist further, we invite you to call us at (800) 725-3296.

Bonus in a bottle!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I own a cleaning service and during the summer we turn over student rentals on a near by campus. Cleaning is not top priority for most of the college age group so you can imagine the grime they leave behind. We had been using the Dawn Ultra and it worked well... Then we tried the Dawn Platinum. It powered through the grease left on the stoves and microwaves. It truly makes quick work of removing greasy stuck on grime.

I absolutely love the Platinum Dawn! I was using Dawn Pure Essentials and it worked for a while. However, when I was using Dawn Pure Essentials I noticed that my dishes were still feeling greasy. So I went out and bought Platinum Dawn. I can definitely tell a difference. My dishes are super clean and it leaves them super clean. I am really happy I came across this because it is hands down my favorite dish washing soap.

I recently just purchased this cause I seen it was new I am abscessed with this type of Dawn soap. I let my dishes so because I had a lot of build up on one of my pants I swear it was soaking for maybe 10 minutes I went back and it was so so clean it was ridiculous. I highly recommend

Putrid New Smell

I am in my 40s and have used Dawn my entire life. New scent “fresh” is awful. It smells like rotting onions and I feel like it stinks to my dishes. Returning my purchase and I guess I will find a new dish soap. Take a cue from the makers of Smart Balance who tried to change their formula too. They ended up changing right back after a few months. If it’s not broke then don’t fix it.

We're sorry to hear that a loyal Dawn fan like you feels this way, as we can assure you that a lot of thought goes into creating features that we think you'll like. We'd like to mention that we haven't made any recent changes to the scent of our Dawn Platinum Fresh Rain. While we did change the name from Refreshing Rain to Fresh Rain in February 2024, this was a name change only. Your comments will be shared with our team, and we suggest giving another Dawn version a try if you'd prefer a different scent. You're always welcome to give us a call at (800) 725-3296 if there's anything more we can assist you with.

Best Dish Washing Product Yet!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I may be in the minority of people not quite in the 21st century with a dishwasher and so, I am forced to wash my dishes by hand every night. That is why I am so thankful for the Power Clean Dawn Platinum product! It literally has reduced the amount of time I have to spend at the sink every night and that is valuable time I get to spend with my family. Dishes go into the water and almost clean themselves! I have typically been a bargain brand detergent buyer but for the few extra pennies this product is worth that and a lot more. I rave about Dawn Platinum Power Clean to everyone I can and wholeheartedly recommend it. Thanks Dawn, for making my life better simply by making quality products that can save some valuable time.
