Palmolive Soap Downhill

2

I have used Palmolive dish washing soap for over 30 years. The lavender and lime scent is not bad. It is although a bit runny. The original one does the job but litterly stinks. The old smell was smoothing. Now it turns my stomach. The scents need an over haul. Going to switch to another brand.

What were you thinking?

I have used this product for at least 20 years, but I can't tolerate the new smell. Until very recently, I've been buying the "real" original from a local value store, these may have been defective or something, I'm not sure. Anyway, all I can find is the new stinky stuff, and that just won't do. Please change it back!!

I Miss The Real Original

I've used Palmolive all my life (mid thirties) it was the go to forever, the original green, can't really describe the scent other than it smelled like Palmolive, I just bought a new jug of it, and it doesn't smell like Palmolive at all, it's not a bad scent it just isn't the right scent. I wish they'd read these reviews and go back to the real original formula!

Sorry Grandma, they changed your dishsoap, and it's not good

To begin with, I'm mainly a consumer of natural cleaning products because I can't stand strong smells and lots of chemicals. My one exception to this rule has always been Palmolive original dish soap, because it reminds me of my dear departed grandma's kitchen. Grandma started using Palmolive, probably in the 1940s, and that's all she ever used, so when I missed her and wanted that nice association of a smell with happy childhood memories, I would buy Palmolive, chemicals be darned! But I bought a bottle last month and noticed the scent was wrong immediately. It seems to have elements of the original scent, but along with that, they've added a fruity note (rotten fruit, to my nostrils). Ultimately, it smells, as someone above so rightly pointed out, like industrial bathroom cleaner. Yuck. Guess I'll have to find something else to remind me of Grandma, cause this fruity nonsense is not doing the trick.

What happened to the original scent!!!

What happened to the orginal scent of palmolive!! Growing up my mom used this and i loved the scent. Recently i bought a bottle and noticed the scent has changed! It has a strong fruity undertone (or should say overtone!). I seriously would have rated this 5+ stars if they had kept that original smell. Stinks now!

Stopped purchasing since scent was changed

It's not the best dishwashing liquid on the shelf. What sold this product was it's scent!!! I have bought it my whole life based solely on that, and as silly as it might sound, I feel deeply saddened that I may never smell that scent ever again. Don't underestimate how memories can become interlocked with certain scents. Please bring original back and you'll win back faithful consumers.

New fragrance smells like a public toilet

Palmolive, the new fragrance in the dishwashing liquid is disgusting. Have been using this product for years, but the new fragrance is very unpleasant. You changed, perhaps now it's time for me to do the same. Shame, always liked the freshness of the small of your 'original' product. New scent maybe, improved - I think NOT.

The new scent is disappointing

2

I've always used Palmolive dish detergent for years but to my displeasure they changed the scent.At first they had the new scent and some of the original scent left but now all I find is the new scent. It's the same no matter what store I go to. The old scent was so clean and nostalgic from years ago.This new scent is a clone to all the other sweet scents out there.What is the matter with these people.Don't they know a winning formula when they see it. I bought a bottle by mistake and now I'm stuck with it.But this will be the last time I will buy this product. From now on I only buy lemon or orange scents.It's a shame because Palmolive was like the only one who kept the same scent from years ago and now they had to go and change it.Bad move.This new scent is too fruity and sweet. I miss the old detergents from many years ago like Gentle Fels which they don't make anymore.That also had a delightful scent.Almost herbal. Years ago Ivory liquid had a nice clean soft scent just like the Ivory bar soap and they changed that too. Palmolive was the last of the originals.I don't know what these people were thinking but the only way I'll buy Palmolive again is if they go back to the original scent. Awful!
