Description

"Immerse your laundry in the beloved fragrance of Gain Original, America’s #1 Fabric Care Scent. This premium liquid laundry detergent is engineered for those who believe a great clean should also be a great sensory experience. The iconic Original Scent is a vibrant blend of sun-kissed citrus and delicate florals, evoking the warmth of a bright, blooming garden with every load. More than just a standard cleaner, this is the foundation of the Gain scent experience, designed to leave a lasting impression on your fabrics and create a signature freshness for your home.

The Science of Long-Lasting Freshness
The secret to Gain's amazing, long-lasting scent lies in its advanced fragrance technology. This is not a fragrance that simply washes away. The formula is engineered with time-release scent capsules that embed deep into fabrics during the wash cycle. These tiny, powerful microcapsules are designed to protect the fragrance, and then break with the friction of movement as you go about your day. This technology transforms your clothes into a personal, wearable source of freshness, releasing bursts of the Original Gain scent long after laundry day is over.

A Powerful Clean with Odor Defense
While famous for its fragrance, this is still a powerful laundry detergent designed to deliver a brilliant clean. The formula uses a robust system of surfactants to lift away dirt and oils from fabrics, ensuring your clothes are thoroughly cleaned. It also functions as a powerful odor fighting detergent. Instead of just masking unwanted smells, the Odor Defense system is designed to ""Fight the Funk"" by targeting and neutralizing the residues that cause tough and musty odors at their source. This dual-action system removes what you don't want and leaves behind the amazing scent you do.

The Foundation of Your Scent-Layering Routine
For those who truly want to ""Sniff the Difference,"" this original scent laundry detergent is the essential first step. Gain is designed as a complete system where each product builds upon the last. Use this detergent to create the base layer of clean and fragrance. Then, for the ultimate, multi-week scent experience, layer on Gain Fireworks Scent Boosters, Gain Fabric Softener, and Gain Dryer Sheets in the matching Original scent. This creates a symphony of fragrance that is truly your own and elevates your entire laundry routine.

Includes one 177 fl oz jug of Gain Original Liquid Laundry Detergent."

Q: Is this gain the original scent without extra boost ? I hope

submitted by catlover - 8 months ago
  • A: The 144 ounce does not state aroma boost is it the original scent?

    submitted bycatlover - 8 months ago
  • A: Yes, Gain + Aroma Boost Original Scent Liquid Laundry Detergent does have the extra boost that allows for more scent noticeability. If you're looking for Gain Original Scent Detergent without the Aroma Boost, we recommend Gain Original Powder Detergent.

Q: Is this product vegan? (Not tested on animals and does not contain any animal ingredients/secretions)

submitted by Redrabbit08 - 2 years ago
  • A: There are no animal by-products in our laundry detergents or scent boosters. We do not test our products on animals anywhere in the world unless required by law and we are working hard to make animal testing of all consumer products obsolete. We are a proud supporter of #BeCrueltyFree. We have invested more than $470 million in developing non-animal testing methods and have advocated for their approval by policy makers around the world. Today, we use more than 50 non-animal alternatives, half of which were invented or co-invented by P&G. We will continue working with partners like the Humane Society International and the People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) to promote the development of new alternatives and advocate for their public use and adoption to eliminate animal testing.

Q: The consistency for this was very thin, liquidy, very different from past Gains I have bought. Did anyone else notice this?

submitted by MrsR - 7 years ago
  • A: We haven't made any recent changes to the formula, so you should see the same consistency that you're used to. However, if the liquid was stored in somewhere extremely hot (such as a hot car, or in direct sunlight), it may cause the liquid to become thin. It should return to it's normal thickness at room temperature, and work just fine. If there's anything we can do to help further, you can always give us a call directly at (800) 888-4246.

    Unbeatable fress that lasts for days!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unbeatable fress that lasts for days! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gain Original liquid detergent is an absolute essential in the laundry room. If there is something that defines this product, it is its aroma: that perfect blend of floral notes and citrus touches that completely transforms the experience of washing clothes. What stands out the most: Addictive fragrance: Leaves sheets, towels and clothes with a spectacular and super durable clean smell. Great cleaning power: Removes everyday stains effortlessly, keeping colors vivid. Practical design: Its dosing cap (like the one seen in the image.png) allows you to use the exact amount without wasting a drop. If you are looking for a detergent that not only cleans thoroughly, but also perfumes your clothes incredibly from the first moment, Gain is a safe bet. Totally recommended!

    Long lasting 👃

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I have always loved Gain detergent. They smell amazing and the scent does linger on the clothing even long after it’s been washed. I do love stays smelling fresh for a long time. A little goes goes a long way which I enjoy as well. The only downside is I wish they offered a little cleaner not so much synthetic fragrance. That would be so nice. 😊

    Long lasting fresh smelling deodorant

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a solid choice for everyday laundry because it cleans well and leaves clothes smelling fresh for a long time. The scent is strong and recognizable, which many people enjoy, and a little goes a decent way per load. it works well in both cold and warm water and handles regular dirt and odors without an issue. the only downside is that the fragrance can be a bit overpowering for some people, but overall it’s a reliable detergent with a long lasting clean smell.
