Q: This is a comment. I was beyond frustrated when my daughter went to clean out the hamster cage with the new dawn and I got really sick. Autoimmune issues. We've used Dawn for all cleaning for 24 yrs. New scent is not working.

submitted by Christa - 2 years ago

  • A: The new scent is not good. Smells like a bad air freshener.

    submitted bytanya - 2 years ago

  • A: The new Dawn scent is horrible. Something in that perfume is bad for people with fragrance sensitivities that never had a problem with original Dawn. Please go back to the tried and true original.

    submitted byHadabuckCO - 2 years ago

  • A: Just opened a new bottle today, didn’t know they changed the scent. While I didn’t use enough to make me sick or anything, the new scent is truly horrible so it’s time to change brands, I can’t remember a time I didn’t use Dawn so this is a true bummer. First Tide went to crap now Dawn, I guess everything is just going down hill from here.

    submitted by - 1 year ago

  • A: Completely agree! The new scent gave me a horrible allergic reaction and asthma attack. I had to throw away the whole bottle. I had no idea that the classic original scent was gone and replaced!!!

    submitted byEliza - 1 year ago

  • A: Agreed! New scent is horrible and won't leave hands or dishes! And the ad did show I was getting original scent.

    submitted byOldLady - 2 years ago

  • A: Surprised to find I was not the only one that had trouble with this new overwhelming scented product that gave me an allergic reaction. Ordered on Target’s site showing this as original scented!

    submitted bymartin1223 - 2 years ago

  • A: We're sorry to hear that this was your experience, Christa, and we hope that you're feeling better. Safety is our top priority here at Dawn, and we can assure you that our Dawn Original has been thoroughly evaluated to be safe when used as directed. Your comments will be shared with our team, and we do recommend discontinuing use of this particular product, if you haven't already. It may be helpful to know that we do offer other Dawn versions, and you may be interested in giving our Dawn Free & Clear Fragrance-Free a try. As well, we'd like to mention that Dawn has only been approved for certain alternative uses. Cleaning out an animal cage is not one of our approved alternative uses, so we can't recommend using our product in this manner. So that we can learn more about your experience and gather some additional details for our Safety Team, please give us a call at (800) 725-3296 when you can.

  • A: TARGET please remove this choice, YOU are NOT shipping the Original Scent Dawn, it was discontinued July 2024 per P&G. They "Clean"" Scent STINKS, JUST AWFUL. CAUTION, !!

    submitted byWINDY17 - 1 year ago

  • A: Proctor & Gamble brought back the original scent in February 2026 due to widespread consumer feedback. Look for bottles labeled "classic scent."

    submitted byAmy - 24 days ago

  • A: I got my house cleaned from cleaners and they used this product to clean the kitchen. I have been sick since then. Got severe headached and eye irritation.

    submitted byEj - 2 years ago

Q: Fyi. This is NOT "original" scent. The "new" scent is absolutely terrible. We've moved to another brand.

submitted by garnettguy21 - 2 years ago

  • A: This is a comment. The "new" Dawn scent smells terrible. I washed my smoothie cup with this and it smelled like perfume. I don't want my cups or dishes to smell or taste like perfume. The smell is overwhelming. Bring back the "original" scent. Does anyone have any recommendations for a different dishwashing liquid that doesn't smell like perfume?

    submitted byLInda - 2 years ago

  • A: Yes, please share what brand you moved to. I am boycotting P&G altogether due to the overabundance of perfume they are using, not only in Dawn but Tide, as well.

    submitted bySYLP - 2 years ago

  • A: What brand? I hate the smell as well. It won't rinse away. I cannot serve food or cook on dishes that smell like perfume.

    submitted byjulie - 2 years ago

  • A: Nor their "original" dawn scent. They changed the scent and the forumla. The new forumula made my hands sting and itch and hated the smell. I used my beloved Dawn for 30 years, now switched brands.

    submitted byKatrina - 9 months ago

  • A: Agree and the new scent smells awful I had to throw it away!

    submitted byToniP - 9 months ago

  • A: This new scent is disgusting, I cannot figure out why Dawn would change it's tried & true scent and make it smell like air freshener. Let them know! Bring back the original

    submitted byKris - 1 year ago

  • A: Talked to company today. Said the "original Dawn" has been replaced with "Clean Scent'. I told them when washing dishes this new scent caused a lung issue and I couldn't breathe.

Q: COMMENT: We are NOT happy with the "new scent"! Smell is overwhelming and like a bad dryer sheet! Please bring back original scent. This one is giving me a headache!!

submitted by Danny and Sara - 2 years ago

  • A: I got a headache too. Why do companies mess with a classic with strongs sales. Switched brands.

    submitted byKatrina - 9 months ago

  • A: I suggest writing the company as well. Personally, I am boycotting this brand until they bring the old scent back. It’s one thing to introduce a new scent, but to replace the original and trick us with the blue color and the duck? Outrage

    submitted bysouthmpls - 2 years ago

  • A: And the taste doesn't wash off. I'm gonna miss you old Dawn. You are losing customers.

    submitted byRaechel S - 11 months ago

  • A: Call P&G Customer Service give UPC code get money back on a debit card

    submitted byN - 2 years ago

  • A: It smells awful what are you changing too. I also agree that the Tide smells !

Q: The title says that it's the Original Scent. IS it the Original Scent or is that a mistake? Target is very good about making good on things but I don't want to take any chances. Is it the Original Scent or no?

submitted by Kara - 2 years ago

  • A: No they stopped making it in 2024 and now this stuff smells and you waste tons of water trying to get ride of the taste when all you used was a tiny dot on wet hands to wash something. I thought people exaggerated. They did not. It's terrible. I'm done.

    The soap is great. The "easy pour" lid is terrible.

    This dish soap is great. The "new easy pour lid" sucks. it is a large slot that can't be adjusted. It pours allover the outside of the bottle making a huge mess and coming out too fast. I have accidently wasted way too much dish soap because of this rediculous lid.

    Best

    We've tried other dish soap for years, especially when on a budget, but nothing has ever worked as great as Dawn. We use it for multiple other cleaning uses, and still by far the best out of the dish soaps and other soaps we've tried. You also can use a lot less with this soap than you do others, so, for us, with all its uses, winds up being cheaper for us in the end. I don't think we could go back to another dish soap now!

    The best soap ever!!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product gratis from Influenster and Dawn in exchange for my honest review. Truly, what is better than Dawn Dish Soap?? It's not just for dishwashing but also for cleaning wounds and helping our animal friends after disasters like oil spills!! This formula is Dawn Ultra!! I've added pictures of the ingredients and such. I also very much love the way the spout is designed! It makes filling up my soap dispenser super easy! This is TRULY a STAPLE ITEM that EVERY home should have!! Additionally, the bottle is recyclable. All great things and the reasons why I absolutely love this product! Definitely recommended!!

    Best dish soap

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best dish soap out there. I use it for a to. Of stuff. Not only does it work great on dishes any time I spill anything on my clothes I grab some dawn and put it on there. The scent of dawn is not over powering. It scrubs stuff well as well as bubbles great with just a little bit. I used it to clean a pan and container that had Brussel sprout in them and it cleaned them up and left none of the Brussel sprout smell behind .

    Definitely the most effective best dish soap out there. Soak just about anything in it with hot water and washing by hand, sometimes with gentle scrubbing, in a few minutes couldn’t be easier. Even the dishwasher most often doesn’t do as good a job with baked on food.

    Quality and Trustworthy

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have tried a lot of dish soaps over the years. The less expensive meant you needed to use twice as much to get the work done with just one use of Dawn. And the super expensive were just on another level my paid grade doesn’t afford me. But this dish soap has always performed as expected for me. Removes the greasy residue from a night of hot pot with chili oil or cleaning the pan we fried tenders in. And perhaps the scent has also changed because this one with the duck smells so good. It’s a trustworthy product. My new favorite way was to replace our dishwasher exhaust with a dish soap dispenser and drop a hose in the container. It’s the small wins that bring so much joy!

    Favorite dish soap!!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Dawn is definitely my favorite dish soap!! It has a clean fresh scent. A little goes a long way. It suds up beautifully, and removes residue easily from dishes. I love that it can cut through grease well, even when I need to spot treat a stain on clothes, it works like a charm.

    It really cuts through grease!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before ever trying Dawn Ultra Dishwashing Liquid I have to say I was skeptical that it performed better than my usual brand. My opinion has changed! It is definitely superior in cutting through grease and leaving things sparkling clean. It definitely makes my life easier. Dawn now has a new customer! Thank you for this opportunity to try a great product.
