Reliable Tide Soap With Only a Hint of Downy
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I’m a long time user of Tide so I enjoyed trialing this! It cleans clothes well, just like the original and I love the smell. Although I like the idea of softener already being included in the formula, I find it doesn’t make clothing as soft as adding it separately. I also wish the packaging was more eco-friendly.

Loved it!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I really loved the scent of this detergent, it did a great job and as someone with sensitive skin it’s super important for me to make sure the product doesn’t cause any irritation which it didn’t. Probably would repurchase but it’s nothing insanely special, still good though.

Great, fresh, floral scent!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Who doesn’t love their clothes to smell amazing? I usually use 7th Generation laundry detergent unscented which I love, however, the Tide Laundry Detergent April Fresh Scent is so refreshing! Smells like fresh flowers and spring. My family does not have sensitive skin so this scented detergent was great for us. I think it is reasonably priced for the size you are getting, considering everything is expensive these days.

A great detergent upgrade
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I’ve used Tide detergents in my home since I can remember. And that’s because they simply work. With Tide my clothes are always clean and cared for, and with this version, which includes a boost of Ultra Downy Liquid Laundry Detergent, they are extra soft! I love the April Fresh scent too - it’s a classic.

Nothing beats Tide!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Although Tide is more expensive than other brands, when I have the money it's well worth the splurge. My clothes come out cleaner, fresher, and it's almost like it lifts the fibers back up and restores my laundry. I'm also a big fan of Downy so I love this combo. The scent is actually lighter than I expected, but it smells so good. Simply clean and fresh!

Powerful stain remover with a fresh scent and amaz
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I absolutely love using Tide Plus Boost of Ultra Downy! It leaves my clothes feeling incredibly soft and smelling fresh for days. The April Fresh scent is not overpowering but gives a clean, comforting aroma. It effectively removes tough stains even in cold water washes, saving both energy and effort. The packaging is sturdy and easy to pour, and although it’s a bit pricier than some other brands, the quality is absolutely worth it. Highly recommend it for families who want clean, fresh, and soft laundry!

This laundry soap offers a convenient way to combine cleaning and softening in one step. The formula promises to leave clothes brilliantly clean. Its built-in softener helps reduce static cling and keeps fabrics feeling soft. The pleasant scent lingers lightly on laundry. This product offers a streamlined laundry experience. The best value for your money with this combination. Made for energy efficient washers and regular washers. Please recycle!

Great scent and even better washing quality

Classic design of a laundry bottle mixed with the massive amount of loads this does equals perfection. It's eco friendly and a great value with an even better scent. If you're washing with anything but tide you're doing yourself a disservice.

StarStarStarStarStar3/5

This detergent is okay. I didn’t really care for the scent, it didn’t have any real staying power. It seemed to be effective in getting the clothes clean but not to great with stain removal. It definitely did make my clothes softer! Just wish it had a better scent.

Good detergent with an overpowering scent
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

This laundry detergent does a great job of getting clothes and linens clean, just as you’d expect from the Tide brand, but the scent is so strong. I don’t mind scented detergents, but this is overpowering. If the scent was about 50% less strong, I would be glad to use it. As it stands, I’ll have to give this away because it triggers my allergies.

Effective and faster results

Best detergent
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This Tide detergent is excellent at cleaning my clothes. The April Fresh scent is refreshing and lasts in my clothes after drying and when wearing. The east pour spout allows me to pour just the amount I need but I can also put it in the handy cap. My clothes also have a softness to it. I will keep using this detergent ad its not my favorite.

Tide touch of Downy was perfect and now it smells like fake cherry instead of Downy April Fresh. I still use it with clorox to hide the scent, but I miss the original.

The new metallic labeled tide plus downy ultra is horrible . I used the original and loved it now I thinks it smells like pee when my clothes are finished !

05/21/2025
The Tide Team
We're so sorry that your clothing has this unpleasant aroma, Heatherr225. Laundry detergent should not cause your clothes to have a bad smell, and we appreciate your reaching out. There are several potential causes for this - infrequent use of a machine; a build-up of residue in the machine; incorrect product dosage (not enough product used can cause dirt build up in the machine); leaving clothes in the machine after washing; leaving dirty/sweaty clothes in the machine for a long period before washing; or drying in non ventilated areas. To prevent malodor, regularly run a maintenance wash; do not overload the washer - wash smaller loads, especially for high absorbent items such as towels, and use at least the recommended amount of detergent. Your satisfaction is very important to us, and we'd like to talk with you more about what you're experiencing. Please give us a call at 1-800-879-8433 from 9AM -- 6PM EST Monday–Friday, so we can further assist you.

Absolutely love tide liquid detergents ! Have been using tide in years and never once felt my clothes were unclean after a wash! I especially love using it for my beddings, towels and beach towels to give that extra little scent boost! However, the scent is on the stronger side that you may want to mix with unscented detergent or test on once piece of clothing to see if any allergies will show up.

I’ve been using Tide Plus with Downy for a month, and I really like it. The scent is pleasant and lasts a long time, leaving clothes soft and fresh.

It smells soooo good: it’s fresh and the scent is long lasting. I love having my family and I smell soooo lovely. I have very sensitive skin and yet the fragrance doesn’t cause any rash. I am particularly obsessed with the updated cap which allows for the excess product to slide back into the bottle, which allows me to use each drop of the product.

Tide remains my preferred laundry detergent, and this variety with the Downy fragrance is particularly impressive. The scent is fresh and clean, adding a pleasant touch to the laundry experience. The bottle is lightweight and easy to handle, yet holds enough product that repurchasing isn’t a hassle. Tide continues to offer excellent value since it’s both effective yet inexpensive. The packaging is also very convienient as it has a built-in measuring cup. Overall, this product maintains the high standard that Tide offers.

Amazinggggg
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Tide Plus a Touch of Downy? Honestly, it’s a solid pick if you want laundry that smells like a cozy hug *and* actually gets clean. The cleaning power’s legit—stains bounce right off, and the Downy touch keeps clothes soft without that weird stiff feel. Scent-wise, it’s fresh but not like a perfume bomb—just a nice “yep, my laundry’s done” vibe. Price is a *tad* higher than basics, but since it’s concentrated, you don’t need to dump half the bottle in. The packaging’s nothing fancy, but the bottle’s sturdy and has some recycled stuff, which I appreciate. Eco-wise, they’re trying (recyclable bottle, HE-friendly), but I wish the formula itself was greener. Still, if you’re into that fresh-laundry feel without major guilt, def recommend! 🌿👚

The perfect balance of good smelling and inoffensi
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Nice enough to smell good but not to overpower your scent profile. It's soft, clean, inoffensive, sweet and easy going. Nice enough that your clothes will smell good but they won't be so good smelling that you will smell them instead of your cologne, perfume, body wash or even your scented lotion. It smells just like you would expect from a pink bottle but not in a feminine way, more in a way that would appeal to females: both as a wearer and and someone around a man who uses this detergent to wash their clothes.

If you want your laundry to smell good but don’t want the film/residue fabric softeners can leave on your clothes, try this!

I have incredibly sensitive skin and have worked for years to get it under control. Tide plus Downy is one of the only things I can use that also works for my teenage boys and their sweaty clothes.

Firstly, thank you so much for using our Tide Plus A Touch of Downy Liquid Detergent. We're very sorry that you've been having that experience. We did change the formula recently, where we increased the levels of surfactant and enzymes, and improved grease stain removal, and improved whiteness. While we made changes to this detergent, it should never cause you to have this experience when using it as directed. We have quality and safety checks in place to ensure this, so we ask that you discontinue using your current bottle and give us a call so that we can make a detailed report to our Quality and Safety Teams and help.

StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I was sent this from Influenster to try and to be honest I have used Tide, specifically their Tide packs and don’t particularly care for them. I generally use Gain. However, I do like this Tide liquid with Downy after using it. Clothes smelled great out of the laundry and as an added bonus I didn’t have to use fabric softener or scent beads. I believe this actually might be my new go to when it comes to laundry detergent. The bottle is easy to pour from and fairly lightweight.

Freshness Meets Softness: The Ultimate Laundry Duo
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I've been using this detergent for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed with the results. The fragrance is light, clean, and long-lasting—noticeable but not overpowering. It leaves my clothes smelling fresh for days. One of the best features is the built-in Ultra Downy which really boosts softness. Towels and clothes come out of the dryer feeling plush, almost like they’ve been treated with fabric softener separately. It also helps reduce wrinkles and static, which is a nice bonus. In terms of cleaning power, Tide remains a top performer. Even tough stains and odors from gym clothes or kitchen messes!

Game changer
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

5 STARS - A Game Changer for Laundry Day! Okay y’all, let’s talk laundry. I’ve officially found THE ONE — Tide Plus A Touch of Downy Liquid Laundry Detergent and I’m obsessed. From the very first wash, I noticed the difference. My clothes came out not just clean, but Tide-clean — you know that deep, fresh, just-walked-through-a-field-of-flowers clean. And the best part? The Downy in it leaves everything so soft and cozy. It's like wrapping yourself in a warm hug straight from the dryer. The scent? Chef’s kiss. Long-lasting but never overpowering — just that perfect fresh-out-of-the-wash vibe that makes you want to bury your face in your sweaters. I’ve used it on everything from gym clothes to delicates, and it never disappoints. If you're not already using this, you’re seriously missing out. Trust me, your laundry will thank you.

I often stay away from using fabric softeners. Just seems like one more thing to do. But the smell was gentle, the clothes soft and the bottle was slim for storage! I don’t have a lot of storage place and get tired of the big fat containers. This one is slim and not too heavy for my kids to pour. I threw in some of my ones stinky clothes and they came out smelling good. Not too overpowering. This may have changed my mind about Downy products. And love that it is all in one!

Tide plus
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Tide with a touch of Downy promises clean clothes with added softness, and it largely delivers. The detergent effectively tackles everyday stains, leaving garments smelling fresh, thanks to the Downy scent. However, the fragrance, while pleasant, can be overpowering for those sensitive to strong smells. While clothes emerged visibly clean and felt softer than with regular detergents, the "touch of Downy" doesn't entirely replace fabric softener for truly plush results. For standard laundry needs, it's a convenient two-in-one option, but those seeking maximum softness might still require an additional product.

I used to love using tide with downy. I stopped for awhile because of cost and finally went back because I loved the smell. I realized the color and consistency has changed, along with the smell. It doesn’t leave any downy scent anymore. I will not be buying this anymore once I am done with this bottle. Back to gain I go!

Scent Changed

I cannot believe they changed the scent of Tide w/ Downy April Fresh!! I used it for years and was so blindsided by this new scent. Now I don’t have a go to detergent. The new version smells terrible. I would use the original or bleach alternative scents as I liked those as well, but they changed those too! Smh, I don’t useTide at all now. I tried the Tide w/ Downy powder after reading the reviews of the other many unsatisfied customers, and someone gave a heads up that it still has the former scent. It does but it’s not the same as the liquid. While the scent is the original it’s a little weaker and doesn’t seem to clean as well. Why change a good thing??

Hi Arlette! We completely understand your frustrations. If you're not seeing the suds you want, it could be that you're using the HE version of our Tide Plus a Touch of Downy. Our HE detergents are specifically designed to be low sudsing, because too many suds will damage an HE machine. The great news is that even with low suds, you're getting a great clean with a touch of Downy softness!

I was floored (like, literally almost fell over from the scent) when the new formula was introduced. Before the change, i had found the perfect laundry detergent--with just a touch of scent. Because it changed, I started using a competitor's unscented brand. I have been trying the separate april fresh scent beads, but they are also too strong, and simply not the same scent. The old Tide with Downy had a very nice scent, and the new version isn't a stronger version of it... it seems totally different and yucky. I still had half a bottle left of the old scent that I have been saving, and on a whim I decided to use some on my laundry detergent recently. It reminded me of how wonderful the old scent was, and how disappointed I am about the change. I have a family of 5 plus a dog, so we do a LOT of laundry. Please find a way to bring back the old product! If people want strong smelling laundry, they should be advised on the label that is it stronger. It is no longer a "touch of downy". The new version announces to everyone who gets close to me that I perfumed up my clothes with heavy detergents. Not the message I want to send.

This detergent does an excellent job at cleaning clothes. It is one of the few detergents that i've tried that removes stain with little work from me. The scent from the bottle and while washing is so lovely. But once I put the clothes in the dryer or leave them to hang dry, the scent is gone. I know the cleaning aspect is what's important from a detergent. But the scent is really important to me as well. I really wish that the scent would stay even a little on my clothes because it truly is a lovely scent.

While we're glad to hear that you're enjoying a great clean with Tide, Elizabeth, we're sorry that the scent wasn't as long-lasting as you would have liked.

Fragrance may fade if the container has been opened for a long time, so we recommend making sure you're using this product within a year.

I've used Tide with Downy for YEARS. Several months ago, I brought some home and thought I got a bad batch - it smelled so bad. I literally took it back and to my dismay, found they all smelled like that. I contacted TIDE and they said they did consumer research and have updated the scent. Super bad decision. Remember when Coke changed their formula (New Coke) and we lost our minds about that? That switched it back and all was right with the world. I'm writing this now as my supply of "old" Tide with Downy is just about out and I'm crushed. Tide - be like Coke, go back to the original formulas and scents.

I believe P/G changed scent to cut cost! Smells a lot like the cheaper simply tide detergent, with maybe a hit of downy. IDK. Shame on you P/G!

So not only does P&G do away with the familiar scent of April Fresh Downy, but now it has altered the formula for the detergent, too. P&G needs to listen to consumers and bring back the "classic" scent of April Fresh Downy, which will then help Tide, too.

The Tide Team
Janet, we can completely understand missing the familiar scent you're used to. While the April Fresh scent has been recently updated to match the liquid fabric softener, there haven't been any other changes to the Tide formula. We'd certainly like to hear more about your experience. If you'd like to give us a call at 1-855-236-3353, we'd be more than happy to help with your recent Tide purchase. <br /><br />Amanda @ Tide<!--[if ReviewResponse]><![endif]-->

Still had to add Downy

Of a norm I prefer a different brand but saw the Downy added and knowing Tide is probably most preferred and purchased I was excited to give it a try! The softness, fresh smell, static control softener gives and best yet not having to buy that extra Downy and take the time to dilute it when putting it in. First load was full of static. :( and really no Downy smell. So having to add Downy anyway to this product made it a no brainer...disappointed.

I've used this detergent before and liked it. I'm currently using the new Tide with Frebreze formulation. I prefer the previous Febreze formulation better, this one is too strong. I'll switch back to Tide with Downy.

I had been purchasing the regular laundry detergent and the fabric softener; but now they make this a 2 in 1 deal so i do not have 2 containers laying around and i don't have to mess with the fabric softener ball! The scent is wonderful, and it lasts a long time; my clothing that has been hung up in my closet for a while still smells fresh and that is what i love!!!

I Love This Detergent!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I have been a loyal Tide user for many years, as this is the detergent that my everyone in my family has used for decades. I recently tried the Tide Plus a Touch of Downy and loved it! I normally use regular Tide and Downy separately. This product is very convenient because it has both products combined in one. This product cleans my clothes the same as the other Tide products, but it also has Downy included in the formula so that my clothes come out soft, also. I purchased the HE formula for my front-load washer and have had no problems with over-sudsing. My clothes are coming out clean and soft and they smell very "April Fresh", which I very much enjoy. I especially love using this product to wash bedding and towels, because of the extra softness and freshness it provides them with. I love that this product is offered in the large 138 fl. oz. container, which lasts for a long time. This will definitely be a product I will continue to use! :)

Very Unpleasant Scent
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

We got the new Tide with Downey when we purchased our new washing machine. We were told we had to use the "he" type of detergent so we bought it where we bought the washer. After I washed our clothes, sheets, tablecloths and towels with the new detergent my husband began complaining saying the smell is unbearable. We recently purchased two new recliners (April 2014) and the smell from the detergent got into the fibers from our clothing and made them smell obnoxious as well. The are currently sitting outside airing out...but my husband still smells the Tide smell. This has been a huge headache for me. Even though I've found a new detergent that has no fragrance there are still a lot of things that we've washed with the Tide in our house. I bought the new washer to save water...I'm not saving water when I have to rewash everything. Some things need two washings to remove the smell. My husband wants to send the chairs back because he can't stand the smell. I hope with all my heart that leaving them in the back yard for a few days helps. I'm really upset about this. I have used Tide all my life and it really feels bad to have this big of a problem with it.

Why the new scent???!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

The new scent on the Tide with a Touch of Downy April Fresh is horrible. Why would you change it from the original? I have used Tide for the past 15 years and have always loved it. I loved it even more when you added the Downy to it. I will not be purchasing this product again. Ever. I cannot stand the candy-like sweet smell. Really disappointed.
