Works but tastes terrible
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fair warning, don't select this 'flavor' of Listerine. Choose a mint one or something else, ANYTHING else. This tastes so awful, some kind of medicinal/menthol flavor.

Strong but works
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this when my throat feels sore or has a tickle. It clears my throat and gets rid of the tickle. Although it's very strong with a bit of a burn (adding some water helps with that), it works.

COOL BREATH
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just love Listerine have been using it for years. I have tried many of the different flavors however my number one choice is the original Listerine.
The original Listerine gives you that cool fresh Tangy sensation in your mouth without what would appear as artificial coloring and tastes just real fresh clean taste and no aftertaste. After using the original Listerine you can go out for the evening with confidence that you have the freshest breasts in town.

Love the product
I love the Listerine original. Is there any way the top could be made easier to
Open. I am elderly and gave great difficulty opening the bottle. I can’t squeeze tight enough to move past the ridges. I live alone and have to wait for somebody to come by to open it

Original listerine mouthwash
I have been useing original listerine for years an it's a good mouth wash.an bacteria fighter. Your mouth feels so refreshing after use. I tried the blu an the purple. Little to sweet fore me. I am not saying it not as good as the original listerine. Everyone has different opinions. I will stick to the original.

Love it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have not used a single mouthwash that was better than the original Listerine. Maybe it's because I grew up with it. Maybe it's because it seems to be the only one that doesn't taste like sugar. It makes my mouth actually feel clean, super clean, and anytime I buy a different flavor or brand, I end up going back to the store to pick this up.

Mouth stays fresh for hours.
My favorite mouthwash. I can tell a difference in my oral health if I fail to use the mouthwash for a period of time. I know everyone can't tolerate Listerine original, but I love it. My mouth feels fresh for hours.

Listerine Antiseptic Mouthwash
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a fan of the Original Listerine because of it's antiseptic qualities. It's useful if you bite your tongue and don't want it to get infected. It kills germs and does not have the sweet taste that some other mouthwashes do. Rinsing with Original Listerine is the finishing touch after brushing and flossing my teeth. I would recommend Listerine without getting points from Healthy Essentials.

This product is GREAT
I have been having problems with bad breath for some years off and on for a while. I had been trying everything, even got antibiotic mouthwash from a dental office. That did not help. I thought about that yellow listerine. I used to see the older generation with it and I said I’m going to try it. People, it was the best advice I’ve offered myself in months. It worked magic for me. I had a fresh breath all day. I wasn’t shame to hold a conversation. I will use this from now on. Thanks original antiseptic Listerine!!!!

Try Listerine. Buy Listerine.
He said that she said he has halitosis. She said that he said its true with some girls to. He said that she said the answer is simple. Here's what she said to do... Try Listerine. Buy Listerine. Keep breathe fresh and clean with Listerine. (From a old 1953 commercial).
I use Listerine Antiseptic twice a day and it works like a charm!

Flavor makes my skin crawl
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I know this is the original flavor but oooh wee does it make my skin crawl! It is just medicinal and nasty. So glad Cool Mint came along and my mom stopped buying this flavor in the 90's!

We use Listerine every day!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I prefer the original Listerine. I feel that my mouth is clean after using Listerine. I like the sharp taste because that means the mouthwash is working. Listerine does not contain any "fake" sugars, such as saccharin, like most other mouthwashes contain.
