That's right! I don't smoke either and I keep my interior clean and smellin' fresh. I never let anyone eat inside my car. Sometimes when I buy pizza and put it in my trunk the smell comes inside but I just open all my doors and my trunk for 5 minutes and let the fresh air go through.

Once in a while I spray some of my cologne in my car.

i got one from the dealership that's titled 'New Car Smell'. surprisingly, IT SMELLS GOOD! not like some of the fruit ones that stink up your car when left in the sun! lol. but with this, my car's smell seems to stay neutral, or smelling like a newer car!

Velro tape, on the center dash. You can remove it easily, replace cartridge and place it back. Your heater might melt it if you have your heater on for a long time.

i got a little air freshener from "the body shop". it plugs into your 12v outlet and you use a little scented oil on a piece of paper/cloth thingy (comes with it). It works pretty well, and smells nice.
it was a gift, but i think it was fairly expensive

hmm i need to get me one of those.

What i have right now can't really be called an air freshner but it works.

I brought my honda in to check the cabin filter because it was smelling wierd and it turns out out there was mould on it from the AC being on alot. Well they offered to spray some scented antibacterial stuff on it for free and i said ok.

When the air is on outside circulate, no smell at all. If i ever need freshening up of the car, i just hit the interior circulation toggle for a few seconds and that antibacterial stuff scent starts flowing through and it smells pretty nice.

That stuff must be strong because its been almost a year and the smell is still there when i turn on the interior circulation.

No, but it smells str8 to me regardless. I keep two hanging from my mirror everytime. I remember one time I went to Best Buy and I was waiting in line, and this female standing behind me said "hmm...you smell good. what kind of cologne you have on". Am like "I dont wear cologne (which I dont), its my car scent". I know when they had first came out, they were sold out around here for awhile, every store you went to, sold out.

I use Jasmin blocks that i get from my local cleaning supplies store, just buy the block and open one end of the package and put it under your seat and the smell lasts for a long time.
