New formula is terrible!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The old formula powder original tide was GREAT. The new formula smells like cat urine and they've removed the lipase, so it no longer removes greasy stains, smells and body oil. Can Tide just stop changing everything that's worked for so long?! This used to be my absolute favorite detergent, but the changes they've ma...

Where has all the powdered Tide gone?
We have used Tide for years. We have not found a local store that even has the large boxes of Tide Original (False advertising!!! It is NOT the great, wonderful original.) powder. Why don't they carry them anymore?
We keep using Tide even though you keep changing it, because we can still tolerate the perfumes you use. That doesn't mean we like them, but they don't ...

Response from Staples :
We're sorry to hear this, and we're happy to help. Our formula hasn't changed in the fashion you think it has and the formula remains the same except for the removal of fillers. Due to this, our dosing scoop has also changed and you should notice that using slightly less packs the same cleaning power and odor removal. All our laundry detergents are designed to provide good overall cleaning. Detergents help water to penetrate fabrics and then loosen dirt from them. They also suspend dirt in the water, so it doesn't go back onto the fabric. It is possible the soil from the garments has redeposited on the fabric. Overloading the washing machine prevents sufficient mechanical agitation, which results in a negative effect on stain removal performance. Correct dosage of detergent/additive: Incorrect addition or under dosage of the detergent/additive results in a negative effect on stain removal performance, as the product was not available at the correct point of the cycle or there was not sufficient product available in the wash. It could also be time for a monthly washing machine cleaning to clear residues left in the machine that also could affect performance. So we can help further, please give us a call at 1-800-879-8433, M-F 9am-6pm EST.

Cured smelly washer, but don't like the old scent.
We bought powder for the first time in a while to see if it cured a smelly front loader. It did. But, it doesn't smell anything like I remember. Liquid smells so much better. Sigh. Can't win.

The only laundry soap I can use
The real “original Tide” in powder form is the only detergent I’m not allergic to. All liquid laundry soaps give me a rash and I haven’t been able to figure out exactly what ingredient or ingredients cause my horrible reaction.
Any box with the OXY label, even in powder form, gives me a violent reaction. I will acknowledge OXY cleans well, but not worth the all over r...

Please give us an option to buy the old scent! I've tried to get used to it, I only use Tide it's the best, but I just can't stand the new smell. And I REALLY miss the old one. I use free and clear now but I'd rather the real original.
This is like "New Coke," I'm sure some people like it but others would like the old option back!

Tide Original Scent
I do not like the new scent. I like trying other new Tide scents and then decided to go back to Original (trusted). Very surprised by new scent. After wearing my clothes, I knew my load needed to be rewashed. The smell is awful. I know something is off when my husband asks, “what’s that smell?”

Not the REAL ORIGINAL SCENT
Second generation of Tide consumer here.
I am agreeing with the sentiment of all of the consumers who are aware that the new scent of Tide is not the same.
I recall noticing the change back in the 90’s.
When Spring Mountain was being announced, it was marketed as the alternative to the“original scent.”
Not even close!
I am nostalgic about the “Real” Original, too.

ORIGINAL TIDE
The original had peroxide as a content. Peroxide produces a tremendous amounts of oxygen. Smelt excellent, but dangerous in an enclosed automatic machine due to chance of explosion by spark.

There’s nothing quite like the smell of fresh, clean laundry, and for years, Tide’s original scent was the gold standard—a nostalgic reminder of home, comfort, and simpler times. My mother and grandmother were loyal Tide users, and I’ve followed in their footsteps for years.
Recently, at 52, I decided to go back to Tide, expecting that familiar scent from my childhood ...

Great but...
Best detergent. Works well on all kinds of stains. I just have one problem with it. I throw away every cup I purchase after the first one. This wastes Tide's money and is damaging to the environment. Sell the cups in every fifth box and label those boxes. Or you can sell the cups separately with a coupon to purchase them free with the purchase of a box of detergent.

Fire Your Marketing Department
This is one of many examples of where marketing departments in order to justify their existence will look to make changes based on “data“ and “surveys” only to find, after re-tooling, it was a huge mistake. I agree with the other reviewer‘s protesting the changes to the original Tide.
