Not just for dishes!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used it in my laundry and it beats all pre- treatment products I have used. This is the best multipurpose product ever. If you have children or even grown up stains like spilled coffee it WORKS!!! So easy to use and a little goes a long way. I LOVE DAWN PLATINUM POWER!!!

Dawn Platinum Scent is too strong.

Dawn Platinum Scent is too strong. Have to take it back. Hot water makes it very strong smelling. Can't take the smell. Not like the last bottle, this one has changed way too much in odor. Sure, it will clean well. If you are outside in the open breeze fine. going to try regular dawn, hope it has not changed scent.

Terrible smell

I love Dawn soap, but I accidentally grabbed the Fresh Rain scent. Hand down the worst smelling product. It straight up smells like Freshstep kitty litter. Do you guys use the same scent?!?!? I really don't want my dishes smelling like cat litter. Please go back and fix the smell.

Worried About New Scent Around Birds

The product does what it is supposed to do. It cleans my dishes well, even when they are greasy. However, after years of using it, I'm going to have to switch brands now that the blue has been replaced by this new scent. I tried using it today and now I am itchy all over. I'm allergic to a lot of strong scents and that was one of the reasons I loved Dawn initially. It had a scent, but not one that set off my hives. Now I can't touch the stuff. I'd also be very concerned about this being used on wildlife in the event of oil spills. There are a lot of scents that you are not supposed to use around birds and this smell seems very similar to a lot of the heavier stuff you are supposed to keep away from them. Their respiratory systems don't deal with it well. It would be really sad for people to being using this stuff to help wildlife, only to have some of the birds dying from respiratory distress caused by the new scent. I'd have given a second star for Dawn's ability to clean regardless of my allergies, but when something is advertised as good for helping wildlife with a cute little duck on the front, I'd have hoped they wouldn't go messing with something that is known to be bad for birds.

We're sorry to hear that this was your experience, and we hope that you're doing well. Safety is our top priority here at Dawn, so we can assure you that our products have been thoroughly evaluated to be safe when used as directed. It may be helpful to know that while our Dawn Platinum Refreshing Rain was renamed to Dawn Platinum Fresh Rain earlier this year, this was only a name change. We made no changes to the scent itself. We do recommend that you discontinue use of this particular product if this has been your experience, and we suggest giving another Dawn version a try. For a lighter scent, you may want to check out our Dawn Free & Gentle. As well, we'd like to mention that our Dawn products, including its perfumes, are extensively evaluated for safety and are safe for use as directed. This includes the use of Dawn for emergency first-aid intervention by trained professionals in accidental exposures of animals – including accidental oil contamination of marine wildlife. Dawn is a very effective agent for removal of oil contamination from fur/feathers, and this emergency intervention by trained personnel is a well-recognized and beneficial medical intervention. Your comments will be shared with our team, and we'd also like to gather some more details for our Safety Team. When you have a moment, please give us a call at (800) 725-3296.

"New Clean Scent" smells terrible!

I have been using Dawn dish soap since the 70's. The "New Clean Scent" is just awful! It is over powering and the smell lingers. I am so disappointed and will start looking for a new dish soap. Please bring back the original scent. There's an old saying..."If it isn't broken, don't fix it."

We thank you for sharing your feedback on our recent change to Dawn Ultra Original. We know this is the first change in over 10 years, and that scent preference can be very personal. We're sorry to hear you are not a fan of the new scent. Please rest assured that we value your feedback greatly, and we will relay it to our Research and Development team. We'd recommend giving our Dawn E-Z Squeeze Free & Clear Fragrance-Free a try, as it has all of the cleaning power of Dawn with no added scent. We'd love to hear more about your experience and help you locate this version of Dawn. Please give us a call at (800) 725-3296 Monday-Friday 9 AM - 6 PM EST.

Overpowering Perfume - Horrible, really.

The "Fresh Scent" is so overwhelming that I may never buy this product again. Why take something that works so well (the best dishwashing liquid ever) and completely ruin it by making it smell like a 15 year old boy who just bathed in Axe Body Spray?

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.

The new scent is horrible

I love Dawn and have used it for years. The new scent on Dawn Platinum is chemical and harsh. Ruins what used to be an enjoyable chore. The clean smell when you are doing dishes was one of the reasons I used Dawn. But no longer, I will be throwing away my bottle or giving it away. Please go back to the original scent.

Terrible scent with formula change?

Recently bought "clean new scent" dawn and the new scent is terrible. The whole drawer where I store plastic bowls washed with new dawn smells awful. When cooking with skillets washed with dawn u can smell it cooking off when first heated up. Please, please bring back old dawn. Not sure if problem is new scent or formula change to dawn. My brother had to stop using also. Hope this won't be like " new coke" where u lose many customers. Hard to get back once u lose them.

We're so sorry to hear about this. This certainly isn't what we expect especially since there has been no scent change to this formula. To get rid of the smell on your dishes, please soak the dishes in hot water with some distilled white vinegar added to it. We'd like to make a report to our team and help. Please call us at (800) 725-3296.

Horrible smell

The refreshing rain scent is truly awful and I’m out of the fresh scent . Every store only has the large bottle in refreshing rain currently and I love dawn but I can not do this scent. At the very least give us an option. My go to is fresh scent in the giant bottle.
