Yeah, there's a definite difference in the colour and texture. I recently got a replacement bottle of Dark Soul made this year and the glitter isn't as obvious as in my previous bottle which was made in 2003 IIRC. And the new batch doesn't seem as chunky and doesn't fall all over the place though you still have to be careful when using it.

I think they did it so it could be classified as eyesafe, but I kind of preferred the more sparkly texture of the earlier batches.
