Dawn Platinum Dishwashing Liquid Dish Soap, Refreshing Rain, 16.2 fl oz

We LOVE Dawn Platinum, last year we bought a few extra bottles and wondered if they have an expiration date and how to read the manufacturing number that is etched into the bottle on the lower back? We want to use the Dawn Platinum while it is good & donate any excess before it becomes less effective, thanks!

I have been using Dawn Platinum for over a year. Amazing improvement over other Dawn brands I'd used in the past. All was well till a bought a new bottle. The previous scent was fine but now that scent is overwhelming. I can't use it to wash my hands as the smell stays on my skin. Why wreck a top notch produce with unnecessary smell. Please wind it back!

The "Fresh Scent" is so overwhelming that I may never buy this product again. Why take something that works so well (the best dishwashing liquid ever) and completely ruin it by making it smell like a 15 year old boy who just bathed in Axe Body Spray?

The new scent in Platinum Dawn is appalling. I have used Dawn for years and I simply CANNOT tolerate the smell! After searching the internet the reviews are overwhelmingly negative. I don't know if my Voice will be added to the outcry. PLEASE change the formula back to the original. I have to throw out a gallon bottle because it leaves an awful smell on things washed in it for days!

Have loyally purchased Dawn for decades but will now be shopping for a new dishwashing soap. The new “and improved” fresh scent is immediately headache inducing and turns my stomach. It smells like overpowering, heavily scented laundry detergent - not something I'll just get used to. What a disappointment.

If I could give this 0 stars I would. Dawn is still the best dish soap to clean almost anything including dishes, but with this new scent it has become the worst thing ever. Really. The. Worst. Thing. Ever. It simply stinks. It's actually nauseating. and then the odor lingers in my kitchen and on the dishes, even when I over-rinse them. Please, get rid of all scent. I want to keep using this, but I am going to have to stop.

I bought the Dawn Platinum and the new Clean Scent; the Platinum has a chemical smell, and the Clean Scent is not good either. I like the Original one if I can find it at the Store. Very disappointed in the new ones. Should stick to the Original Scent. I have wasted money on both of the new ones.

I'm not much of a “recommends products to people” type of guy, but one of the few exceptions has always been the dawn platinum for its genuinely superior cleaning ability—it's something that I am very quick to mention to people and recommend over more expensive products or time intensive home-made cleaners. However. The new refreshing rain scent formulation has made it near impossible for me to keep the hand wash dishes clean in our house lately. The second I flip open the bottle, that pungent perfume makes my stomach churn, and if I was more than two dishes at a time, I unfailingly develop a headache. While I am *somewhat* sensitive to the scents of household products, I can usually just scrunch up my nose in distaste and power through it. The new formulation for the Refreshing Rain scent makes me feel physically ill, though. I'm so disappointed, too. I used to buy this scent because it *didn't* bother me as much as the papaya or apple. Now I have paid for this huge bottle of soap that I do NOT want to use, which I wouldn't have even bought if I'd known the scent had changed. If there was at least a sticker on the front or something on the label, I would have smelled it in the store and known to steer clear.

I've been buying Dawn for years. I always felt it was a better quality soap. Recently I feel I've had to use more for each wash than in it past. But the biggest issue I've run into is the scent. It's such a strong, perfume scent and it's getting absorbed into my cups, bowls etc but mainly absorbed into my baby's bottles. He's started refusing the bottle of milk because the scent is so strong and won't go away even after sanitizing them. I'm extremely disappointed especially since I have a huge refill bottle of Dawn to get through. Waste of money. Won't be buying again.

I've been using this for maybe a decade and buy the large bottles only a couple times a year. I recently opened a new bottle, purchased 4/24/2024. This product is now unusable for me because the fragrance change, as far as I can tell, is identical to the dog shampoo I've bought. I honestly cannot stand over a sink that smells like I'm giving the dogs a bath and want to put my dishes in there. Ew!!! I'm going to buy something else. Even if Dawn works the best the smell is absolutely repellant to me now.
