BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL SCENT

Tide has been my tried and true for some time now. It has been the only detergent to actually keep my clothes clean and fresh, without terrible fragrance that negatively impacted my skin. I also use it to clean my home, my car, my shoes...literally everything. The most recent scent change to the powdered tide was a terrible decision - it smells like a wannabe Gain laundry detergent - just too over powering and off putting. I appreciate that it cleans well, however, I just cannot smell this all of the time, as it gives me a terrible headache. I could understand adding a new scent to the collection, but not changing a well-loved product that had no issues to begin with. Very disappointing. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Best Laundry Detergent Ever!

We used Tide original when I was a child, a long time ago - 50"s. When I got older on my own, I tried other brands. but none compared to Tide. I still use it and the powder only. I do not like pods. Anyway, it is getting harder to find any Tide powder. Are you going to discontinue completely? Lord I hope not.

Love the product, hate the smell

I've suffered from chronic migraines for years, which are triggered and exacerbated by perfumed products, including detergents, and so have used fragrance-free detergents for a long time. A couple of years ago, I was so happy to find that I could tolerate the light, pleasant fragrance of Tide Original Powder, and have used it ever since! However, I opened my latest box and have been so disappointed in the change that's been made to the fragrance. I find it extremely cloying, and I'm concerned that I won't be able to use it if it triggers migraine headaches for me. Please consider going back to the previous formula. Thank you.

Headache-inducing chemical smell

Why why why did you change the smell? Original Powdered Tide used to be one of the best products on the detergent aisle. It was my go-to for deep stain removal, whites, workout clothes and my boys' sports uniforms. And for everything else I used Tide Pods (spring meadow.) I stock up for months so I didn't even realize the scent had changed until this weekend. I first noticed it with my whites using the powder— the smell was so strong I thought I had mistakenly spilled some shower cleaner. For my next round I opened my tide pods and ran the cycle and realized it was the Tide. I found a package of my old pods and compared the two. The new smell is horrific. I have had to Rewash everything. Unless it changes back, I am going to have to find a new brand. You cannot wear the clothes washed in the new smell without getting a headache.

Tide

I started back using tide powder recently and really enjoy it the smell I love especially when using to clean the house. My only issue is that recently I am having a hard time finding tide powder in original scent. And noticed that the weight is still the same on the large box but it now says 113 loads where it used to say 102 loads. But the weight and ounces are still the same. Are you taking up the price on this size soon and trying to fool us into thinking is it is more when it is really the same?

LOVE IT!!!

I was afraid to by the original powder due to all of the complaints about the "new" scent. Honestly I love it. To be fair I hate when they mess around with an old standard. It it's not broken don't fix it i always say. But this still is the power house standard of what clean should be. All in all buy it, try it and if your not happy return it.

Best Stain Remover!

Literally the best stain remover ever!!! Not only do I use this for detergent I use it for stain removal! Cover the stain with a small amount of detergent let sit for 5 minutes and place in the wash machine! Grass stains, blood, mud you name it it removes it! Forget this stain sprays they do not work! Give this a shot and you will never go back!

If you're a fan

If you're a fan of #GoCleanCo then you know how magical powdered Tide is. It works so much better than liquid laundry detergent or the pods. The liquid laundry detergent is diluted with so much unnecessary water that it doesn't have the same type of strength as powdered tide. It may seem old school but make the switch! Trust me! #BleachPrayLove

The Nose Knows

I am a big fan of Tide products. I usually use Pods but in effort to save water used in Pods, I switched to Original powder. My complaint is that it does not have that Original Scent smell. It lacks a smell. Tide original would fill our laundry room with a wonderful scent before. I do like the efficiency with cleaning our laundry. I am thankful that has not changed. Glad to read your team is working on this. Meanwhile I will hang in there.
