New (gross) scent, label doesn’t advertise
They changed the scent but didn’t mention it on the label. I recently bought it, did one load of laundry to learned it’s a new scent that is like a strong (gross) perfume. After reading the reviews here I see that I can find the old scent in a ‘booster’ form, it would have been nice to have the label reflect a change before buying a big jug of it.

Not Original Scent
Very disappointed in the new scent. My first baby is almost two so I had the original scent with him. I bought dreft for my newborn a few weeks ago only to be confused as to why his clothes did not smell the way I remembered. I thought I received a messed up bottle so I purchased another only to be disappointed again. Manufacturers did not make it clear that this is a ‘new scent.’ Please bring back the Original Dreft as an option.

Scent made me cry
I’ve been a long time Dreft user and when getting pregnant this time around I was so excited to pick up a bottle of the newborn phase. I didn’t even smell it first because I wanted to smell it on the freshly cleaned warm baby clothes....but when I was transferring laundry I nearly threw up from the harsh perfume like smell! I couldn’t believe it and actually cried from disappointment. I refuse to purchase anymore Dreft until the original scent is made available.
