The original scent of this Tide purclean was AWESOME. I would still be using this today without question if the scent did not change as mentioned in other reviews. I was extremely disappointed when I discovered this drastic (not subtle) and obvious change which has now made this product putrid. I cannot comprehend why a solid company would take a fantastic product and make it this way. I do not understand this. If the original scent could be brought back, I am sure the reviews would improve greatly, and I know I would purchase this again. I am surprised this is still sold in stores the smell is so bad. If the company cannot bring back the original scent for whatever reason, why not bring a new product to market with the original scent but a new name? BBW appears to do this all the time, and certainly their business seems to be flourishing. PLEASE consider.

I used to love this detergent. The smell was divine, it cleaned wonderfully, and I used it exclusively. Then the scent changed - they say they “improved” it, but that couldn’t be more inaccurate. It is called “honey lavender”, but the new scent smells like honey dew melon, no hint of lavender. I have purchased this a couple of times since the scent changed, hoping either they would change it back or it would grow on me, but neither happened. I won’t buy it anymore.

My daughter tried this as it was supposed to be allergy friendly and both of us have used the fragrance-free varieties in the past. So she smelled this at the store and thought it would be fine. Nope. It was so bad that I made her rewash her clothes as I could not even stand to be in the same room with her-my nose closed up and my throat swelled up-fortunately I had a spare eppi-pen. NOT allergy friendly.

Why change a perfect scent
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I've been using Tire Purclean for a couple of years. Price is high and many other lower priced products work just as well, but I have been willing to pay the high price because of the wonderful scent it left on the laundry. I've highly recommended it to other people for that very reason. Overnight guests would comment how nice the sheets smelled. So, of course someone decided it needed changing and now it smells yuk. Thought maybe it was just a fluke the first time, but now I see that it's a "new" thing. I will not spend the money for something that isn't outstanding from other similar products in some way. That heavenly scent was Tide's outstanding feature. So disappointing.

Why So Many Suds?

Quality1/5

I have used Tide Free and Clear HE for years and recently tried this product for the first time. I was intrigued by the plant-based claim. For a large load of towels, I followed the dose guidelines and filled the cup only to the 1st line. I had to run 2 additional wash cycles (no additional detergent) with extra rinses to get the suds rinsed out of the load. It took a total of 3 hours and 6 rinse cycles to get rid of the suds. Not very eco-friendly, a waste of money, water, and now I have detergent I don't know how best to throw away. Overall very disappointing. I see comments elsewhere that this product suds more than your other products, but how little are you supposed to use?

01/05/2021
The Tide Team
We're sorry to hear that a loyal fan like you is disappointed, since we always want you to be able to easily use Tide for a great clean. Compared to our traditional formulas, you can expect to see more suds when using our Tide purclean™ detergent. However, none of our detergents are expected to create excessive suds when using them according to the instructions. We'd be happy to share some tips so that you can prevent this from happening in the future! We suggest making sure not to overload the washer, since suds can become trapped in fabric if there's not enough room for them to circulate freely. Using too much product can also cause too many suds, and it may be helpful to know that you can use less detergent if you have soft water or if your items aren't very dirty. We hope this helps! Your satisfaction means everything to us, so please give us a call at (800) 879-8433. We'd like to learn more about your experience.

You can expect to see more suds with Tide purclean compared to our traditional formulas. To avoid this, we recommend paying close attention to the dosing guidelines listed on the back of the bottle and not exceeding the dose required for your load size.
