New Formula - Doesn't Smell The Same
I have been a long time user of this product since the 90's, so much so I buy 2-3 at a time. My recent purchase I instantly recognized the label was different and the ingredient list had changed, mainly because the ingredient list was significantly longer. The papaya extract and oat protein were gone, and the ingredient label now lists artificial colorant along with multiple ingredients I know are chemicals added to add fragrance to a product like Citronellol and Linalool. The major disappointment is that it does not smell the same. I bought this product for it's performance and especially for the scent. It was clean, slightly fruity, spa-like scent that was really uplifting. The new fragrance smells like a poor attempt to recreate the original fragrance, but it falls way short. It's just not the same. This product has been around so long and seems to have a very loyal following, I don't understand reformulating it. In all honestly I can't speak to performance because I haven't and I won't be using it. The fragrance change is too big of a deal for me. It no longer smells like something unique like it use to smell. Old ingredients: Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Deionized Water (Aqua), Ginseng (Panax Ginseng Root) Extract, Grapefruit (Citrus Grandis Fruit) Extract, Papaya (Carica Papaya) Extract, Glycerin, Sodium Chloride, Oat (Avena Sativa Kernel) Protein. New ingredients on the current label I received 7/27/16 Aqua (Water,Eau),Sodium Laureth Sulfate,Glycerin,Propylene Glycol,Sodium Chloride,Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Fruit Extract,Tilia Cordata Flower Extract,Panax Ginseng Root Extract,Panthenyl Hydroxypropyl Steardimonium Chloride,Parfum (Fragrance),Benzyl Alcohol,Citronellol,Geraniol,Hexyl Cinnamaldehyde,Linalool,CI 19140 (Yellow 5),CI 15985 (Yellow 6),CI 16035 (Red 40)
