Hi Sandy S, On your Gain box there is an 800 number for Proctor&Gamble. If you call them they will tell you if they have re-formulated the Gain recently or changed any of the materials in it. I am suspecting that it is probably the perfume that they add to the soap. Gain is being re-configured with stronger scent in it as the company wants it to appeal more to the Hispanic population (no offense intended to anyone). My dad retired from P&G from the plant that makes Gain (liquid) but the company is real good about keeping the people that retired in the loop. Also two of my cousins work at the same plant.

Even some of the so called scent free detergents have some scent in them, just in smaller amounts because without it, the soap really stinks. Hope that helps a little, Lisa

Sorry for all the mis-spells tonight, I am having a stupid finger day.
