Burns
If you need medicinal style mouthwash - Listerine can always be counted on. My fiancé uses it every day, he likes how it burns. It's too strong for me, but he loves it.

Great Mouthwash
I love the original mouthwash from listerine. It can get pretty hot but after using it regularly everyday, it’s not so hot. I have both small and big bottles for home and travel.

Not too strong
This is an OK mouthwash, I feel it does not last long when using this product for fresh breath. The cap is hard to twist open, even when pressing in the sides as directed. I do like that it is alcohol free, it does not sting my mouth at all, it is definitely a less intense feeling than the regular Listerine. My mouth and teeth feel very clean after using this product as directed .

Powerful
This works wonders!!! This is so powerful, it works better than any mouth wash I’ve ever used. It’s not for the weak though, it will have all the pores in your body open after using this.

Works great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our dentist recommended this years ago and we have been using it since. Sometimes the original just can't be improved upon.
