Seventh Generation Concentrated Laundry Detergent, Fresh Lavender Scent, 40 Ounce, 2 Pack, 106 Loads

I have used this detergent for quite some time and been happy with it. However, the new green cap is absolutely terrible...bad enough for me to switch to a different product. The instructions say to fill to "Line 3" or "Line 5" and there is not a "Line 3" or "Line 5" on the cap. There aren't any measuring lines on the cap...so no clue how much to add to the laundry. It's also very messy, with the detergent dripping out when you put the cap back on. It's a terrible step back in packaging. I pay extra to have a better product. I definitely did not get my money's worth this time! If you see the green cap move on and buy something else.

I used Tide for years before until about a year developing Eczema.... So i needed to find a new detergent... decided to use a natural one so I picked Seventh Generation Fresh Lavender we love it! Our laundry smells fresh and looks so nice now and plus no itchy.....

For the record, this review is for the new Fresh Lavender scent, and not about the quality or effectiveness of the detergent. I have to join the chorus of those complaining about the new "fresh lavender" scent. I love the smell of actual fresh lavender, and usually like products with natural lavender scents (no synthetics). However, this scent does not smell like lavender, and it is very overpowering. I am among those who suffer from scent sensitivities, and the previous Blue Eucalyptus and Lavender scent was never a problem for me. If the Blue Eucalyptus and Lavender scent is no longer available at my store, I will be purchasing the fragrance free version instead.

The new “fresh lavender” scent is sooo strong and sooo awful and sooo NOT lavender. Like a previous reviewer, I've been a longtime, happy user of the Seventh Generation “blue eucalyptus & lavender” scented laundry detergent. I recently purchased what I thought was the usual scent only to be highly disappointed to find out how awfully wrong I was. First off, the label for the new “fresh lavender” scent looks practically identical to the old “blue eucalyptus & lavender” label (seriously, Seventh Generation? Come on...help a mama out!) So I didn't even notice the difference until I pulled my laundry out of the washer and couldn't get over how bad it smelled. At first I thought maybe my washer hadn't washed out all of the detergent, or that perhaps I used too much. So I ran the load through the rinse cycle again. Nope. That horrendously strong odor was still there. Then I looked at the bottle and noticed the tiny little “new” label above the scent name and realized that despite the incredibly similar label, it wasn't the usual scent. Now, I love lavender. But this smell is not lavender. It smells like a combo of ammonia and bug spray to me. And I cannot get over how strong it is. Even after an extra rinse cycle and dry, everything washed in that load of laundry reeks. I'm super disappointed. Please tell me that this new extremely strong and unpleasant not-actually-lavender scent isn't replacing the blue eucalyptus & lavender scent.

The new 100oz bottles of Lavender laundry soap have patchouli, everyone. It is not stated on the front of the bottle. The bottle says 'new fresh lavender scent' which is not true and misleading- as the only scent is patchouli It has permeated my clothes, as well, as a previous reviewer stated, even after washing 3 times to rid the odor. The scent of patchouli is very bothersome and my family is sensitive to it. I've hassled all day with my stinky patchouli laundry issue and feel it is fair to leave this review and hope it helps anyone else.
