Posted by arun on July 8th, 2014

When your car interior smells nice and fresh, you feel energized, refreshed and ready to take on any journey. The scent not just makes the ambience pleasant, but also masks the odors of the vehicle. In order to choose the best car air freshener, you should first take a look at the various types of fresheners available in the market.

The market holds thousands of types of air fresheners, designed for car interiors, homes and other places. From gel based to cardboard to paper, there are so many different types of fresheners you can choose from. Paper-based fresheners are economical and eco-friendly. They are made from high grade paper. One advantage of perfumed paper is that you can place it anywhere, under the seat, inside the seat cover, on the dashboard. Your passengers will be able to feel its pleasant smell, and wonder from where it is coming. Cardboard fresheners are similar to the ones made of paper, but don’t have its flexibility. Both these types of fresheners are very light on your pocket. But, they are light on scent as well, and the perfume could wear out in a few days. So, if you don’t mind buying them in packs and replacing them often, these scented sheets are perfect for your car.

On the other hand, if you are looking for an air freshener that will last for quite some time, then opt for gel-based perfumes. They generally come in stylish bottles and can be stuck to the car’s dashboard. The scent may not be very strong, but the smell may mask other unpleasant odors in the vehicle’s interiors.

Oil wick fresheners are also a good choice for cars. Liquid fragrance is filled in a plastic bottle, and a membrane is dipped into it. This air freshener can be attached to the car vents, allowing the perfume to circulate inside the car. So, even if you get the best car air freshener in the market, it will not be useful if your cars’ vents are not in working condition.

You can also go for canned fresheners. All you have to do is just place the cans in some convenient place in the car. Some of these canned air fresheners have plug-ins that can be inserted into the cigarette lighter. For a quick solution to your car’s bad odor, use a perfumed aerosol spray to spray the scent inside the vehicle.
