I only want the DAWN ORIGINAL SCENT!
If you don’t keep making the original scent product I will never buy dawn again. Why would you change a perfect thing? I HATE THE NEW SCENT. I can’t find the original Dawn anywhere and I’m starting a social media campaign to protest it.

Scent Change Awful
As a long time user, very disappointed in the scent change. Awful!
Please don't fix what wasn't broken.

New scent is so bad!
I've always used Dawn for our hand wash dishes. Recently purchased several bottles to stock up while it was on sale. Huge mistake! The new scent is horrible! I took 4 of the 5 bottles I purchased back for a refund. The scent is VERY overpowering, so much so that the dishes still smell like it even after rinsing multiple times.

Bad Scent
The new scent is awful. I won’t be buying dawn anymore. Still don’t know why they changed a good thing.

Horrible New Scent
I have used Dawn for many, many years and now they've messed with the scent. It is a horrible, Horrible smell that will give you a headache in an instant, and doesn't go away.

New scent is horrible
The new scent is overpowering. I don’t want my dishes (or hands) to smell like cheap perfume. It makes my nose and eyes sting and itch.

New Smell is GROSS
I have been using Dawn exclusively almost since it's introduction over 40 years ago. I have never purchased another brand. It was one of those things in life you could trust, until now. The New Smell is overpowering and gross. It bothers my asthma, and I cannot be near it. It lingers on hands, and all the other non-dish items I used Dawn for, laundry, cleaning my eye g...

Stop making the New Scent and GO BACK TO THE OROGI
Just did dishes at my in laws on Thanksgiving and after couldn’t figure out why my hands were so dry and I had a headache. I then looked at the dish soap on my mother in laws since and saw it was Dawn with the NEW scent. I have used Dawn for over 30 years not just for dishes for so many other things inside and outside of my house. When they changed the scent months ag...

Cloying scent! I’m outta here!
I’ve used Dawn for 30+ years and now I’m dropping it altogether. The appalling new scent is a perfect example of how companies can’t leave good products alone. The scent is so strong it overwhelms the entire house. It is unrinsable, so even dry dishes have the cloyingly persistent odor. Why would anyone want their plates to smell like urinal cakes?! I can’t even smell ...

Terrible lingering smell
Not using Dawn with this new scent. Leaves a lingering smell on dishes that does not come off. Ruined a perfectly good product and apparently you do not care enough to give people a choice. Guess you don't mind losing all the sales that you are. Really poor business decision.

New scent is gross
wife just bought this new dawn with a new scent and it smells like trash. Doesn't even smell clean. Whoever thought this was a good idea was mistaken. Palmolive smells way better.

Stinks!
The new smell stinks! it is too powerful and cloying. I can't rinse it off and smell it on my hands all day. Big Mistake. Why don't you have a completely Scentless product (not lightly scented - I mean Non scented)
Who makes these decisions? Anyone want the rest of my smelly bottle? (Half of it - Unfortunately is in the sink soap dispenser)

Seriously, the Scent is Bad
I've used Dawn original dish soap my entire adult life. I don't even know what else is out there, but I'm about to find out. And when I buy the new stuff, I'm also gonna need to buy a new dispenser for my sink hole, because I don't believe the smell will wash of this one. I washed my hands 20 minutes ago and it's still actively bothering me, and I've been trying to get ...

New scent will not rinse off no matter what
I thought I was losing my mind or being poisoned. This new scent is awful. I mean the smell is terrible but the worst part about it is it will not rinse off. I overly rinse and everything tastes like this dish soap. I promise this is not just a personal scent issue. I cannot use a product that cannot even be rinsed off. I've had to replace dishes because of it.

The change you made is terrible
The new Dawn is absolutely awful. I had to give it one star to write a review, but sorry, it doesn’t deserve any. It is not the same product and the scent, Fresh New Scent, is gross. I loved my Dawn Ultra because IT WORKED. I noticed there are a whole bunch of bottles with quite a few different scents - why?!!! No one wants dishes to smell like cranberries. Dryer ...

New scent is overbearing - time to move on
The new scent of Dawn is overbearing ... in a bad way. We have been customers for decades but will be searching for a new brand with a less offensive scent. If our local store shelves are any indication, we are not alone. This is just one moment in time, but unscented 7th generation dish soap (never heard of them before) is almost sold out while Dawn is virtually unt...
