    After trying the Lavender fabric softner (not the laundry soap which got so/so reviews) and the Baby Blossom stain remover, I enthusiastically purchased a case of this soap using Subscribe and Save. I recieved the shipment a few days later and tried it immediately.

    Gross.

    The dish soap is thick and has a strong floral scent – nothing like fresh basil. It leaves a film on your hands and plastic dishes and cutting boards, creating a film and sudsy effect I could not wash off no matter how hard I tried. The smell of the soap on my hands was unbearable – getting on food stuff even after I had rinsed several times. The soap is thick and truly should not be used near food or on anything you eat off of unless you want to lick off soap.

    I will go back to Shaklee liquid dish soap. It is way more expensive and you have to pay for shipping – but is is the cleanest, purest, non-scented and most effective soap I have ever used. In this case, you do get what you pay for.

    Ok, well, not the pain but at least add some pleasure. The soap smells nice, in a friendly not very chemical manner. Sort of like Grandma’s kitchen if it’s anything like the commercials. Doesn’t kill your hands, and cleans dishes well.

    Is it worth the extra money? You’re buying a box on Amazon, making it about as cheap as dawn at your local grocery. Make sure you get super-saver shipping when you buy and give some to your friends, they might love you a little more as a result.

    I gotta tell you, I was very hesitant to try this product but I’m soooo glad I did. I used to subscribe to the Seventh Generation Free and Clear dish soap and I had to use a LOT to get the dishes done. This product I use for hand soap in the bathroom and dish soap and a little goes a long way. The BASIL scent is heavenly. It smells like a mix of basil and flowers, but not too overpowering. It has been over a week and the hand soap dispenser is still 3/4 way full (and it has not dried my hands AT ALL) and I still have a few days worth of dish soap left in the kitchen. So it is fair to say that one sixteen ounce bottle will last you two weeks if you are using it for dish soap only. If you subscribe and save you’ll be paying about $3.20 a bottle and it is well worth it. I will never go back to Seventh Generation dish soap again. I’m in love.

    Another pleasant smelling dishwasher liquid from Mrs. Meyer’s. The sweet basil and the lavender are my favorite scents from Mrs. Meyer’s cleaning products. It smells nice, not too overwhelming and it brings me in a slightly better mood, while doing chores. To top it of it claims to be friendly for the environment. Hard to resist a combination such as this.

    I like Mrs. Meyer’s products very much as generally they perform well and are safe to use. Thus far Lavender is my favorite since it smells like a moderate strength lavender;Geranium as it smells like a bushel of real roses (a bit overpowering); and then Basil for its very, very too light floral scent. I thought Snap Pea smelled like cut grass that had been sitting in a closed plastic bag and opened a week later. Although the suds/grease cutting power is not as strong as Dawn, Mts. Meyer’s product is much better than Seventh Generation’s or Ecover’s dish washing liquid soap. Of course it is also more expensive than the other 2 brands, as all 3 usually have an Amazon coupon offer at one time or another throughout the year.
