New scent is beyond awful!!!
I had no idea they changed the scent until I used it. Man is it awful!! It’s SO strong and fruity - the smell lingers on my hands long after I hand wash a dish or glass and it makes me nauseous. After being a customer for many, many years I’m going to have to find another dishwashing liquid. Why did they mess with a good thing?

Cleaning power
This is my go-to dishwashing liquid. It cleans dishes and has so many other uses around the house. It has a fresh clean scent and is very effective at cleaning.

Tampered with scent (and not successfully!)
I’ve used Dawn (blue) since it first came on the market many years ago. My grown daughter once even remarked that the scent reminds her of home :) Recently the scent has changed and it is over powering and, to be honest, horrible. I have two large bottles and will be donating both. Will find another brand which is disappointing.

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.

Good for dishes
The scent I’m very used to cause I’ve been using this for a while. You get a great value for your money. You put it on dishes and it comes right off. The packaging is simple. And it makes an environmental impact as well.

Good buy
I like this dish soap because a little goes a long way. but the most attractive thing about it is the way it's designed. You simply pick it up and squeeze to dispense it, you don't have to turn it over or set it upright. No leaking! I wish I discovered this sooner. One slight drawback is that, as the soap gets closer to the bottom, it's harder to squeeze out. Otherwise, it's a good value for the price.

Love Dawn
SO easy to use this bottle in the middle of washing dishes, just squeeze it onto the sponge from the easy-to-hold bottle. Great value for size and how long the bottle will last.

Love my Palmolive now!
Approval rating since the sent change plummeted from about 87% to now down to 20%. That's even with Procter & Gamble trying to sprinkle in all these biased Influenster reviews. What a bunch of garbage that is. Incentivized reviews are not honest. They'll say anything to keep the freebies coming.

Nah, traditional Dawn bottle better
Hurts my hand and wrist to dispense soap after bottle is half full. Why did you name it EZ squeeze?

No lid just squeeze it
This thing is actually cool, I remember I went to my aunts house and she had one of these, and I needed to wash my hands and I picked it up and was looking for the lid to open it😂 until I just squeezed it, and it came out, in a way it was satisfying and well put together for some reason I would definitely get one of these, for the money price? Maybe if it was a little bit bigger than money worth.

Average Result
Dawn Ultra Dishwashing Liquid, Original Scent gave me mixed feelings. It cleans the dishes, but the lather is not as good as I expected. The scent is fine, but not particularly enjoyable. I also noticed that it runs out faster compared to other dishwashing liquids of the same size I’ve tried. Overall, I’d give it 3 out of 5 — not terrible, but definitely not my favorite

Love the squeeze feature!
I love the squeeze packaging! Its the little things that make a difference! Scent is pleasant, not overpowering. I've always trusted dawn to clean any type of dish, no matter how greasy.

New smell is terrible and makes me sick
The new scent gives me a headache almost instantaneously. It's false advertising to refer to it as "original scent" because it clearly isn't the original scent. I've purchased a few bottles online that say "original" and then have had them be the new scent. And even though everyone in my household agree it's the best for removing grease, it's only used in our house if I'm not home. But the scent lingers - I can smell if it's been used as soon as I walk in the door, even after 24 hours.

Absolutely awful container!! The so-called EZ Squeeze bottle is maddening & I won't buy it again, as it's too hard to dispense the dish soap. Terrible & frustrating to use!

Not scented, but disagreeable - it's SMELLY!
The new smell of blue Dawn is cloyingly sweet. The smell persists so much that washed items seem to require another rinse. Revert to the old formula, please.

Thank you so much for letting us know your thoughts on our new scent. We do extensive quality and consumer testing to get the scent just right, so we appreciate you sharing your feedback. To remove the scent from your dishes, please soak them in hot water with a bit of distilled white vinegar added to it. In the future, we recommend washing these dishes by hand, and avoid soaking them. We'd love to connect about this and help. Please call us at (800) 725-3296.
