The new smell is nothing like the original, im incredibly disappointed bc i just bought 102 loads worth of this powder. i don't always use powder detergent so i actually still have some of the original scent; it's incredible how different it is; and honestly it just doesn't smell like laundry to me anymore

I changed back to powder after advised that it would prevent build up of mold in my front load washer door that the liquid detergent produces. The smell is very off setting, not like the original. It did prevent mold build up as was my original goal. Thinking I just got a bad box I bought a second smaller box. Same smell. Very deceiving saying original scent when clearly it had changed. Time to change brands. Very disappointing. If you go back to your original formula, I will be a returning customer.

I recently switched back to Tide Powder Detergent because I wasn't satisfied with my other laundry detergent and I wanted to use Tide as my overall household cleaner for washing floors, cupboards etc. Like most reviewers I was incredibly disappointed to open the box and discover that the "Original Scent" is nothing like the Tide Original that I grew up with! Old posts online suggested that Mountain Spring was the "new Original scent" but when it was available you couldn't buy it in the powder laundry detergent. Now it looks like that scent is discontinued too. It's ridiculous that a major brand would change the scent of it's products when you have decades of dedicated customers who had zero complaints. Now instead of just adding to your scent line-up you've alienated your most loyal customers. Deeply disappointed doesn't even describe it for me.

Have been using Tide for years and always loved the scent of clean sheets after a wash. Just bought a new box and find the scent much more perfumie and off putting, that I had to air out my sheets. WILL NOT BUY THIS AGAIN! Sad they have to change a good thing...

Tide has changed the original scent; you do see the problem with these words together, right? When “original” is no longer the original, there's a problem. Now I have a large box of Tide that I can't stand. And I'm supposed to try the Mountain Spring to see if that's the right one? I still think powdered Tide does the best job of cleaning of anything out there; the pods are for the birds. I'm going to be peeved if 1) Mountain Spring stinks and 2) I can't find it in powdered form. Value and Quality can't be rated higher since I have spent money on a large box of Tide that I can't stand to use!

Tide seems to still clean okay, but the smell is so foul that I have to stop using it. I thought it was "just me" but my husband who has sensitive skin and requires another detergent for his clothing asked me to stop using it on my own clothing because he said they smell "putrid." I agree. TIDE are you listening? Plenty of other people also loathe this new, bad odor.

I already wrote one review on how terrible the smell is but now I must write another review. Not only is the smell horrible but it lingers and is giving me a migraine headache. I have been a faithful Tide user for 40 years and loved how it smelled. It was a clean fresh smell that was mild and pleasing to the senses. This new "Original" Tide has an overpowering perfume smell that permeates everything. In desperation I tried Tide Clean Breeze and it was even worse. It was mentioned by the manufacturer to try Tide Mountain Spring - that this is closer to the original smell. I will try it but I will probably have to stop using Tide since they are likely using this new fragrance technology in all of their products. When I was at the store today looking for another brand to try I noticed ALL the scents were overpowering --- even more so than Tide. Sadly even the more natural brands are also doing crazy strong scents. Who decided we want to smell like strong lingering perfume???

I have been a Tide original powder user for more years than I can remember. I liked it that it didn't have much fragrance as I am allergic to many perfumes. I am disappointed with this product and will have to find another brand to use. Please bring back the original formula!

I always throw my slippers away, because they never come clean....until I decided to use the powder detergent my daughter bought....No more throwing away slippers; no more pet smell in my Chloe's clothes and my whites are brighter without using bleach!! Powder is definitely the BEST!!!

I recently purchased tide again because I'm going to be cloth diapering with this child. I fell in love again, I forgot how great the cleaning power is, it smells fantastic. It's more expensive but I feel you don't need to use as much as cheaper brands.
