I cannot believe Dawn changed its scent. This new scent is awful, horrible and overpowering. I truly hate the new scent. I have used Dawn for so many years and it was a staple, iconic product. It boggles my mind that the "original" Dawn scent would be changed. Please bring back the old scent. I honestly will not buy Dawn again until the old scent is returned and will have to find a new product.

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 review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have not tried the various scents. Not available in my area yet. I have to say this is the BEST DAWN ever. Thank you for developing help to save our wildlife. My hands are softer each time I use it.

I've been using Dawn Platinum since it came out, and have love the effectiveness, and especially the scent. The latest bottle I opened smells like the worst cheap perfume, and has ruined Platinum for me! The brand new bottles I have will go in the garage for emergency use, and eventually to the trash. WHY would you take an excellent product and make it smell like gas station air freshener???

My mom was yelling at me and said if i didnt shut up she was gonna make eat dish soap and i said ill do it myself and I proceeded to start chugging it and the taste was in my mouth for hours and i puked everywhere. I do recommend for children with dirty mouths.

I have used Dawn platinum for years and it works great but the new change in scent is so overpowering that I will consider a new brand in the future. This is not a ‘clean’ smell, rather it smells like I bathed my dishes in perfume. Tempted to toss the current bottle because I can’t stand the smell.

Dawn dish soap is what my mother has always used and what I buy as well. I like the scent, and I really like that it gets my dishes clean. I know that if there is a bottle of dawn beside the sink I can clean anything from dirty pans to paint brushes and they’ll be in great condition to use the next time. It doesn’t dry out my hands, which is a big plus when you don’t have a dishwasher.

I got the refill size because of how good it is, not only is it very affordable but it lasts a long time thanks to it's concentrated formula. It removes all grease from the dishes very quick and if you leave it soaking with a little of water it helps to get anything stuck off the pans or dishes. The bottles are recyclable for anyone worried about the plastic, and by buying the refill size you can save a lot of plastic and help the planet.

I bought such a huge bottle of this soap before they changed the scent that I hadn't needed to replace it until recently. I was horrified to find out the scent was different and I was unfortunate enough to have purchased a second large bottle. I will either give it away or throw it out. I find it so nauseating.

I hate the new scent I loved using Dawn because it worked well and the scent was not full of purfumes like other dish soaps. I will not be buying Dawn going forward, I will be looking for a new dish soap. I am really disappointed you would change the scent that was fine to something so overpowering.
