What is everyone using to keep their interiors smelling great? I often walk by cars at shows or just at the local 7-11 and can smell great scents just pouring out of the cars when opened and not the kind that gives an instant headache.

I'm looking for something good but can never find anything that lasts. I use the typical pine tree style cherry scent but was wondering if there is something better?

To be honest, I buy Snuggle/Bounty dryer sheets and stuff a few under my chair to conceal them. I put about 2 under each of the front seats, and the scent stays and lasts for roughly a month. A box of 20 sheets costs $1 or 2 at Walmart. It may be unorthodox here on this forum, but I personally love the smell and for the price you're laughing

Haha, when I first saw the picture I thought this was a good joke but I can agree this stuff does smell good. Thought about this a while back but never found one I liked for the car. May look into some again.

I prefer no scent, but there have been very positive reports on other forums of "Stripper Scent" from Chemical Guys. You may want to give your significant other a heads-up that you're trying it, however, lest you get unfairly accused ;-)

Oh, and if that's not your cup of tea, then Fabreeze works well. It was originally developed as an odorless odor eliminator, but scent was added because evidently people didn't want to pay money for odor elimination, but were willing to pay for odor replacement.

Wow the reviews on this stuff is off the chart lol. I want to buy one just to see how it actually smells. Could be good for pranks... Spray your buddy before he gets back home, ah the damage that could be done.

Personally, I can't stand air fresheners. "Clean," is my favorite smell. Use good products, keep the interior vacuumed and dusted on a regular basis, and I think you'll be pleased. Just my take.

+1.....not sure what happens with your interior but I've never used any fresheners in my car and all my friends marvel that my cars always smell like they just left the dealership. Keep the interior clean and you should have no problem. My '09 A4 still smells brand new after 103 KKms.

Nothing is wrong in my car. Interior is still clean and brand new. Less than 2k on the car. Just wondering really. I'll prob stick with keeping it clean like you guys and leave it at that. Will probably use an air fresher in my other car though. Can't get the smell of burnt oil out. Had a slight spill on the header and now everything comes inside.

Don't eat in it and don't smoke in it. Keep it very clean and it will always have a good smell. If you do buy a scent don't mix them. Stick to 1 all the time and the car will always have that scent.

I prefer a clean smelling car and not jacked up collage of flowers. However, I do like "SNUGGLE" but I hardly want my car to smell like that. I'm totally convinced that this is the best smell you'll find for your car and I'm sure you'll agree. Works great and has a smell like leather that I've not found anywhere. They have small bottles of the leather spray in case you want to try it out but you'll be buying the bigger size soon.

I've smelled Griot's Car Scent and although it does smell good, the Leather Car Spray smells better and lasts a while.

So its not essentially a car air freshener but the smell it perfect for autombiles. Give it a try and tell me what you think.

Ive always used and love the "squash" scent from cx-3

Ive gotten nothing but compliments from people who have been in all my cars. Fairly cheap and easy to hide

Yankee Candle jar scents on top of a always clean interior works for me..

No air fresheners....Ozium Air Sanitizer has always been my choice....

CS-X3 Squash. Such a heavenly smell that even if danny de'vito smelled like this all of the time, I'd marry him.
