Change the scent of Dawn Platinum

I have always used Dawn and loved it but this new scent the Dawn Platinum has is awful! I didn’t know the scent had changed and thought a stink bug was in my dispenser. I took the thing apart and no bug, I realized it was the new scent. I have a huge bottle and can’t use it because it makes me nauseous.

Bring back the old stuff!

I’ve used Dawn dish soap for ages and have always love how great it works and the smell. I don’t know why they changed the recent formula, but now it smells awful. I thought my husband came home with the wrong one, so I just bought another and there is definitely something wrong with this stuff. Bring back the old refreshing rain scent!!!

Disappointed Consumer

I grabbed a bottle of Dawn recently assuming it was the original scent…because it had the 2 ducks on the label. Well it took me awhile to figure out what was smelling in the kitchen and noticed at the top of the bottle it said New Scent. I’m glad I am able to put the mystery behind me albeit sad to say I will no longer be using Dawn as the original scent is being eliminated. This new scent is awful!

New scent is terrible

Like many other customers, I find the new scent is terrible! It’s too strong, it causes sneezing and eye watering. And the scent and taste doesn’t come out. Our pets won’t eat from dishes that are washed with it. And our coffee now has a soapy taste. The old Platinum Fresh Scent was better On the plus side, no one want me to hand wash any thing, so it all gets washed in the dishwasher.

We're sorry to hear that this has been your experience, and we hope that you're doing well. We can assure you that our Dawn Platinum Fresh Rain has been thoroughly evaluated to be safe when used as directed. As well, it has gone through many quality checks to ensure that you can get the best possible results with the ease. We wouldn't expect Dawn to impart the product taste into dishes or food. However, if the soap isn't completely rinsed off, or if the dishes have become porous, it's possible. If certain items always pick up a flavor, they're probably worn to the point of being porous. We suggest not soaking porous items, but instead making sure that they're washed immediately and rinsed thoroughly. We'd also like to mention that while our Dawn Platinum Refreshing Rain was renamed to Dawn Platinum Fresh Rain, no scent change took place. We'll make sure to share your comments with our team, and we do recommend that you discontinue use of this particular product. For a lighter scent, we suggest checking out our Dawn Free & Clear. You also may be interested in our Dawn Free & Clear Fragrance-Free. So that we can learn more and gather some details for our Safety and Quality Teams, please give us a call at (800) 725-3296 when you're able.

Strange scent

I am a loyal user of regular Dawn, I love it's grease cutting properties and it has been my favorite dish soap for many years. I recently purchased the Dawn Platinum refreshing rain scent. Although it cleans well, it has a horrible scent, I thought there was something moldy in the kitchen, it took me a while to realize it was the dish soap!

“Refreshing Rain Scent” is anything BUT refreshing

Okay, I LOVE Dawn Platinum, but the new “refreshing Rain Scent” is awful! I just can’t stand the smell so I’ve switched to a different brand. Let me know if you bring back the original scent of the Dawn Platinum and I’ll go back to buying it, but for now, nope.

New scent is utterly disgusting and nauseating

I’ve been using Dawn since God was a boy but not anymore. The new scent is so disgusting that it burns my eyes and makes me nauseous. And the smell lingers in all of my dishes so I also get to taste this putrid smell. I will never buy Dawn again so long as that is the scent.

Firstly, thank you so much for your many years of loyalty and support. We're so very sorry to hear you had this experience with your most recent bottle of Dawn Platinum Refreshing Rain. This isn't what we expect with our quality and safety checks when using it as directed, especially since we have not had a scent change with this product. Please discontinue using it. To get rid of the scent, please soak your dishes in hot water with some distilled white vinegar added to it. To prevent it from happening again, wash these dishes immediately and rinse them thoroughly. This isn't something we take lightly, so we'd like to make a detailed report to our Quality and Safety Teams and help. Please call us at (800) 725-3296.

Very upset that there wasn't a warning not to use

It's great to use on dishes and clothes, but DON'T use it on animals. I used it to kill the flees on my dog. The same way I use regular Dawn. Problem happed after I rinsed him off. Yes it did kill the flees. But it also ripped the skin and fur off my poor baby dog. If I'd have known it's not good for pets I definitely wouldn't have used it on him.

The health and safety of our entire Dawn family is our top priority, and that includes your four-legged friends as well. We're very sorry to hear this and we hope that your dog is feeling better at this time, however we cannot recommend using any of our products as animal shampoo as we have not tested any of them for that purpose. We'd recommend speaking with your vet for the best options for fleas. Our team would like to learn more about your experience to help further, so please give us a call at (800) 725-3296.

New Scent Makes No Sense

As a Dawn user for many years (and a PG stock holder), I’m extremely disappointed with the new scent. It’s a sickening sweet smell and way too strong. Why mess with such an effective, successful product?! I’m seriously considering no longer using Dawn. It’s that bad!

WE HAVE BECOME MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS

I have used Dawn Dish Liquid ORIGINAL SCENT for decades. I have always loved the way it cleaned the dishes and never having to use more than a few squirts in the sink. The scent was pleasant and did NOT linger on the dishes. Changing the formula is very disconcerting. Upon further research, I have determined to NOT use ANY of the Dawn products and am bringing the unopened bottle of the new "Fresh Rain" scent back to the store. Here is a link as to why you should NOT use Dawn, Fresh Scent or Fresh Rain: https://www.practiganic.com/2014/05/dish-soaps-good-bad-and-toxic.html
