What friggen car freshener actually WORKS?

My car's smelling funky sinceI had a few colleagues sit in my car

I've tried that Air-O-Fan crap, and it doesn't work.... (It's a little thing you stick to your vents, and a little fan turns when the air is on.... Inside is a piece of white 'soap')..

I also have another thing that just sits there, that's got a dry 'soap' pack inside it. Useless. No smell.

No, I'm not putting a pine tree pine scent tree thing and dangle on my mirror!

Anything that actually works?? I figure those liquid ones work good? Any ideas?

I've also got leather, so I'd rather stay away from spraying cologne all over my interior..... Besides, it'll leave a nasty stain...

My favorite is apple by... by... Ah! I don't remember... it looks like a fruit cup... you can purchase it at those chinese stores... many stores in Pacific carry them.. not stylish, but smells great! Eh, hope that helps. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

Personally, I've got to pick up some myself... no more new car smell... boo boo's got nice ones, but they run out pretty quickly. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG]

Stick one of those fabric softener sheets in a vent..... it'll smell mountain fresh for 7 days!!!! hahaha.

I tried febreeze and it was kinda flowery for a day but actually works great the next day cuz there's no smell at all.

A girl I know likes to have her car smell "unique" so she has a small sponge, about 1" square, that she velcroes just in front of the passenger side floor vent and to scent it she uses whatever (perfume, oil etc. ) Her car smells just like she does.... kind of distracting actually [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

nothing beats FEBREEZE.

just spray it on whenever you want, and it does wonders, just short of restoring the new car smell.[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

[edit] - hm, I dont know if febreeze works for leather interior... maybe they have a solid one..

Decamo has a little shameless behaviour in the past
My GF bought me that Body shop plug in air freshner. Works pretty good. Its like a plug it in for your car.

Is it liquid? There's some liquid ones that look like a ball, suspended by a bracket... sorta sways back and forth when it's stuck to you dash I suppose.... Then there's the "Pokemon" style thingies.... You feed it these little white *****...????

That thing about the sponge in the passenger floor vent sounds like a good idea.... PacMall it is next week! Maybe I'll see Pink!

No, I'm not spraying any Febreeze in my car, not on my <font color=white style="background-color: 3E3E3E;">leather</font ft>!!!!

i don't know how you gonna hide them... but give find a good way so they aren't that visable... try to have them near the vents by the front under the steering wheel.... there should be vents on both side..... another way is to stick them in a line along the dash... so the sun will help make your car smelling all nice [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
