New persil colour smell is awful

I’m really disappointed. I liked persil because it wasn’t too highly perfumed. The new perfume is so strong. Any recommendations for a replacement brand? I prefer a bio washing liquid that goes in the machine in s persil like ball.

I use Almat or Formil, but I use the powder.

We use Persil. Also noticed the awful smell of the new one. Also myself and son are getting nasal congestion/hay fever symptoms continuously, wondering is it the new Persil? I have heard to people using Ariel so might try that and see if the cold symptoms go away.

I stopped using it recently,I found both the colour & biological we're leaving an awful smell behind when the washing had dried .
OH also started suffering with skin irritation again from it.

So annoying when something used for years is changed !

I’m glad I’m not the only one. DH just has no idea! At least we don’t have reactivate skin. Just waiting for this enormous bottle to be got through before I can switch to a different brand. Any suggestions? Is the Ariel better?

I only use powder now as liquid seems to cause issues in my washing machine. However Ariel is very good, I think it consistently comes out on top for stain removal. I also use Tesco and Sainsbury’s bio and would rate both.

Same here Dark,only powder now as I read it's better for the machine.

Op ,I bought Bold -the one in the blue & white box ,it is lovely & the fragrance seems to last ages .

I’ve also noticed this. I’m going back to Waitrose biological. The purple cap is the one for colours.
