About Gain
Gain is a laundry detergent Procter & Gamble launched in 1969 and repositioned in the 1980s around scent rather than cleaning power, a distinction that separates it from the company's own Tide. It has since extended into fabric softeners, dish soap and scent beads, all built on the same fragrance identity.
