I use blue Dawn, nothing else. I don't like certain smells and I am irritated by lots of perfumes. I recently had the orange Dawn (they were out of the blue) and I didn't like the smell. It does such a great job. Dawn is also great for getting stains out of your laundry. Nothing gets out a grease or tomato sauce stains like it. It is also a great flea soap to use on your pets.
