Musty funeral Lilliies

0 stars!! This is the most disgusting thing I have ever smelled, the new scent smells like musty, funeral lilies. It refuses to come off my hands or my dishes. I am returning it for a full refund and looking somewhere else. This is a New Coke / Crystal Pepsi level fumble. Unbelievable you’d make such dumb change!

Worth every penny!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son has a bad habit of keeping dishes in his room for LONG periods of time. I mean like weeks! He recently brought out a sink full of dry, caked on plates, storage containers, silverware & casserole dishes. I cringed when I saw the mess he left me. I didn't panic though. I ran hot water in the garbage disposal side of the sink (that way I could get rid of the waste) & put a few drops of Dawn Platinum in the sink. By the time I unloaded my dishwasher & was ready to fill it with his collection, everything had come clean! No scrubbing, just a gentle wipe with a Teflon sponge & it was ready for the dishwasher. I was utterly amazed! I've always loved Dawn, but this is the BEST product ever!

Horrid scent and doesn't rinse well

Very, very disappointed. The rain scent is just horrid - like an overly floral perfume from the past century. Not fresh at all - more like musty. Why did you change the scent! It reminds me of when you changed the original Tide scent a few years back - this is the same awful scent that caused me to never buy Tide again! I won;t be buying Dawn anymore unless I can find the original fresh scent. Also I noticed that it is very hard to rinse the dishes, they almost seem to be coated with a slick film.

We're sorry to hear this, Lara. We can assure you that a lot of thought goes into the design of our products, though we do understand that preferences can vary from person to person. Since we're always looking to bring you the latest innovations, we did update this formula. We do have a variety of scents available, so we recommend trying out a different version to find a scent that meets your preferences. We also wouldn't expect it to be more difficult to rinse your dishes. We suggest making sure that water temperature is hot enough when you're rinsing. We hope this is helpful, and please give us a call at (800) 725-3296 if there's anything more we can assist you with.

The new scent will make you gag

If I could give the new scent negative stars, I would. If you have scent sensitivity, it’s best to find a new brand. The new scent will make you gag. It will also leave a nasty taste if you wash anything that is potentially porous. This includes reusable straws, reusable containers or anything not glass/ceramic/steel. Buckle up for nasty tasting everything! Original scent is supposed to be original, not “new original.” Like did some remedial person decide that the word original means something new? You can definitely add new scents, but don’t try to replace something tried and true with something new and gross. When I was dishes, I’d like my dishes to smell like soap, not some old lady’s perfume.

Thank you for sharing your experience with your bottle of Dawn Platinum Dish Soap with Refreshing Rain scent. We want to make sure you're referring to the correct dish soap, as there's been no scent change for Refreshing Rain. The only change that's occurred regarding this soap, since 2022, is the name of the scent. We dropped the "Re" and kept the rest, naming it, "Fresh Rain". Whichever dish soap you purchased, please be assured that we thoroughly test all of our ingredients for safety before we use them in a product, and this is not something we would expect. Safety is our top priority and based on what you shared we do recommend discontinuing use of this Dawn. We hope you'll give 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 in order to make a complete report to our Safety Team, and to help you further. Please hang on to the product and give us a call at (800) 725-3296 Monday-Friday 9 AM - 6 PM EST.

Nightmarish New Scent

I have loved Dawn Platinum, but no more. The "new improved" Fresh scent gives me an instant headache. Dawn Fresh Scent previously was pretty innocuous. The 'improved' scent smells like the potty cakes used in urinals. I will no longer by buying Dawn--it literally makes me sick.

We're sorry to hear that a great Dawn fan like you had this experience, and we hope that you're feeling better. We can assure you that our Dawn Platinum Fresh Rain has been thoroughly evaluated to be safe when used as directed. We'd like to mention that while we did change the scent name from Refreshing Rain to Fresh Rain earlier this year, no changes were made to the scent. It's a name change only. We'll make sure that your comments are shared with the rest of our team, and we do recommend that you discontinue use of this particular product. We do offer a variety versions here at Dawn, so we hope that you'll give another one a try. So that we can learn more and gather some additional details for our Safety Team, please give us a call at (800) 725-3296 when you're able.

“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 smell :((((

I own a restaurant since 1988 and have always have used Dawn regular dish soap for our pot sink and all the cooking lines, even my greasy hood. I bought the platinum bye mistake on a order about a year ago. Even with it costing more then the regular I loved the smell so much that I just kept ordering it, but now they changed the smell no sure why but it’s horrible! Every night we use it on hot stoves and grills and ovens and it makes my stomach turn, the old scent was absolutely fabulous. Can’t wait to use up the many cases I have already purchased so I can be done with this product.

Your kitchen should be sparkling, and your nose shouldn't be bothered, when using Dawn Platinum Dishwashing Liquid, with Refreshing Rain scent to clean your dishes. In February, 2022, the formula was updated to dissolve and clean grease and tough, cooked-on messes four times faster than non-concentrated Dawn. At this time, there was a slight increase in perfume level, too. You might find some tips at this link: https://dawn-dish.com/en-us/how-to We hope you'll give us a call and share more about your experience. We're here every Monday through Friday, from 9 AM to 6 PM, EST. Our number is 1 (800) 725-3296. We hope to talk with you today.

Superior to all Dish Soaps!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Dawn dish soap, especially, Dawn Platinum is superior to all dish soaps. It eliminates grease and food stains from dishes, food containers, and anything you need cleaned. I even use Dawn dish soap (the regular kind) for washing my dog, Jovie. It helps with taking grease stains out of dirty laundry even. The sky is the limit!

Terrible new scent.

They’ve changed the “refreshing rain scent” recently. It’s over powering and terrible now. This is the only dish soap I’ve bought during the last decade, and I’m about to throw my brand new bottle in the trash and look for a new brand. Dawn has lost my business. Horrible.

Fresh Rain scent is nauseating!

Whoever came up with the "Fresh Rain" scent should be fired! It is disgusting, smells nothing like rain, it smells like like some hideous perfume!! I tried it just once, it made me physically ill- headache and nausea. Why would someone want to wash their dishes with perfume? I have used Dawn for many years- I will be switching to another brand.
