Q: What does this smell like? How is this "free and clear" if fragrance is added?

submitted by Cat Lover - 3 years ago
  • A: Dawn Platinum Powerwash Dish Spray Free & Clear is free of dyes and strong perfumes. It has a light pear scent.

    submitted byDawn - 2 years ago

  • A: To me it smelled like whiskey. I threw out my sponge & laundered my cloth thinking they had gone funky?! Later realized it was the soap. To be fair..one roommate agreed and the other did not.

    submitted bytippy - 2 years ago

Q: Is this paraben free?

submitted by meow4life - 2 months ago

Q: CAn i spray this on my dishes before i put them in the dishwasher to wash?

submitted by lag - 8 months ago
  • A: Like traditional dish soaps, Dawn Dish Spray is not designed for use in the dishwasher. The high level of suds could cause your dishwasher to oversuds and create a mess.

Q: Why is this marketed as "free and clear," which for about 20 years has meant fragrance-free and dye-free? I bought this thinking it was actually "free and clear" and couldn't use it. Inconvenient!

submitted by Allergen sensitive - 2 years ago
  • A: The free & clear description of Dawn Platinum Powerwash Spray, Free & Clear version, refers to the fact that no dyes are added, so you can clearly see through the soap, free of coloration. The fragrance of Dawn Platinum Powerwash Spray, Free & Clear is a light pear.

Q: Does it come with a refill?

submitted by Luna - 2 years ago
  • A: Thank you, Luna, for reaching out to us and asking if your Dawn Platinum Powerwash Spray, Free & Clear Starter Kit, comes with a refill. It should, but the pictures and price on this particular one makes us think it may be misidentified. We encourage you to call Target and ask them if this particular listing includes a refill, or if it's a non-refill Powerwash bottle. Their number is 1 (800) 440-0680.

Summary of reviews

The recent changes to Dawn dish soap have left many guests disappointed, particularly due to the new scent that has been described as overpowering and unpleasant. While guests appreciate the cleaning power of the product, the fragrance has caused them to seek alternatives. The introduction of a spray option has been positively noted, but the overall sentiment leans towards a desire for the return of the original scent that many have loved for years.

    Dawn's New Perfume-y Scent is Appalling & Caustic

    The new scent is appalling. For over 20 years, I've stood by Dawn Dish Soap because I'm sensitive to perfume-y scented soaps/detergents. I'm baffled why the corporation would change to this new caustic scent that offends on every level. PLEASE BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL.

    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.

    I've been an avid Dawn user and trusted it to clean my baby's dishes, but I just bought the Platinum new scent and it is terrible. It has a horrid chemical smell with a lingering rancid smell. I will no longer be buying Dawn sadly. Please go back to the original fragrance!

    Smell is overpowering and nauseating

    The Momma - 23 days ago
    originally posted on dawn-dish.com
    What happened to the old Dawn Platinum? The new Dawn Platinum smells so bad it’s nauseating. My husband usually never complains about product smells but he wouldn’t stop talking about how the new Dawn smells so overpowering. He also commented how he washed a knife and used it to cut an orange and then could taste the soap while eating the orange. We notice that you can’t rinse it out completely on dish clothes and they turn sour over night. We basically chucked the huge new bottle down the drain.

    Thank you for sharing your experience with Dawn Platinum Power Clean Dishwashing Liquid with Vibrant Fresh scent. Please be assured that we thoroughly test all of our ingredients for safety before we use them in a product, and the experience you've shared isn't what we expect. Our Safety Team shares that we don't expect Dawn to impart its fragrance into food. However, if the soap isn't completely rinsed off, or if the dishes have become porous, it is possible. If certain items always pick up a flavor, they're probably worn to the point of being porous and it may be time to consider retiring them. 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.

    Your safety is out top priority, and we're very sorry your recently purchased bottle of Dawn Platinum Dishwashing Soap with Vibrant Fresh scent isn't working out for you. Because our Safety Team works very hard to make sure all of our consumers get the best products possible, ensuring every ingredient and final product meets our safety standards, we never expect consumers to experience what you've shared. Please, stop using this dish soap so you'll stay safe; put the remaining product in a safe spot where it won't be used or thrown away. Then, call us for more help with this purchase. We're here Mondays through Fridays, from 9 AM to 6 PM, EST. Our number is 1 (800) 725-3296.

    Horrible smell. Why change it? I couldn't figure out what the perfume smell was in our sink - I didn't think it was Dawn because it never smelled like this. But sure enough, that's what it was. It also lingers- it's outside (we keep the larger container in the garage). It smells like someone dumped a whole bottle outside. I don't think I noticed the smell before this new "fresh new scent"

    I have used Dawn for many years. I’m very unhappy with the “New Fresh Scent” it smells like perfume and lingers on dishes. I’ve been unable to locate the original scent. I’m hoping you will bring back the original scent. If this change is permanent I’m afraid I’ll have to find another brand.

    I don’t know why Dawn now smells so bad. I feel sorry for any animals that have to undergo the stench from the fragrance that have to be cleaned. It doesn’t seem to rinse off very easily either. I thought I might have bought the wrong thing. I never had any issues with Dawn blue until this new platinum. I have sensitivity to fragrance and this isn’t going to work for me. I hope they still make the original, if not it looks like I’ll be getting a different more subtle smelling and less clingy dishwashing soap. I may have to give the rest away. It’s just too stinky and clingy.

    We're sorry to hear that a great Dawn fan like you had this experience. We can assure you that our Dawn Platinum Fresh Rain has been thoroughly evaulated to be safe when used as directed. A lot of thought into creating features that we think you'll like, but we certainly understand that preferences can vary from person to person. As well, we do have many quality checks in place to ensure that you can use our products with ease. To help remove the scent from your dishes, you can soak them in hot water with some distilled white vinegar added to it or run them through the dishwasher (assuming the dishes are dishwasher safe). We'd also like to mention that while we did change the name from Dawn Platinum Refreshing Rain to Dawn Platinum Fresh Rain earlier this year, no scent change has taken place. This was a name change only. Our Dawn Platinum and Dawn Original are two seperate products, and our Dawn Original does continue to be available. We hope this is helpful. 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 if this has been your experience. We offer a variety of scents here at Dawn, so we suggest giving another Dawn version a try if you'd prefer a different scent. You can find our lightest scent in our Dawn Free & Clear, and our Dawn Free & Clear Fragrance-Free is also available. So that we can learn more and gather some additional details for our Safety and Quality Teams, please give us a call at (800) 725-3296 when you have a moment.

    originally posted on dawn-dish.com
    The new fragrance is almost nauseating. Prior Dawn Platinum was pleasant and not overly fragranced. Please bring back the original scent. Many people are highly sensitive to perfume. This large refill size bottle will be returned. We can’t tolerate it in the kitchen. Have you people ever smelled “fresh rain”? I suggest P&G have their contract manufactures develop a “free and clear” version of Dawn with no scent. I think it would be a hit!

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your recently purchased bottle of Dawn Platinum Dishwashing Liquid with Refreshing Rain scent. We do apologize for this frustration, but we're thinking it's possible you may have purchased a different bottle of Dawn than you regularly do. While the Platinum Refreshing Rain scented soap has recently undergone a name change, dropping the "re" and the "ing", so that it's only "Fresh Rain", the scent itself did not change. The scent has been the same for a few years now. We'd be happy to further assist you with this, give us a call any Monday through Friday, from 9 AM to 6 PM, EST. Our number is 1 (800) 725-3296.
