Squash air freshener? - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Eugh, air fresheners gross me out. Any time I get into a car that has one I instinctively think "What smell are they trying to cover up" and it makes me assume it's a dirty interior.

My cars smell nice because I keep them clean and free of smokers, I don't leave gym clothes in them, and I don't fart a lot.

I'm the complete opposite ^^. When I get into a good smelling car i'm like wow this is what makes the car feel good even if its a crappy old civic. Then I always ask what kind of freshener is it. Haha

I use this in every car that I owed in the past. It's pretty good. Different places make in different forms (Glass Jar, Plastic container, aluminum can, etc)

One thing you need to know... Once you open the can/freshener in your car, you'll definitely smell it right away. Over time, you'll get used to this smell and it will be hard to notice until the next new one.

When friends get in my car, they notice the smell and ask what it is, but I don't smell anything now... if I sniff the container, then I can smell it. Normally, not really.

Do you know how strong this will be? Like is leaving it under my seat strong enough?

Squash is the best, I've been using it in my cars since my AE86 10 years ago. The squash scent is different than the usual car smells. After you've had it for a while, it's not overpowering at all, it just smells clean.

i cant click the link. Can you post the full name of it so i can look it up?

PERRIN_Chris · 07-10-2013, 07:12 PM

There's a ton of places that sell it, just look up Air spencer squash in google.

Strong refreshing smell. The smell seems to magically make your car feel cooler on warmer days(almost like dehumidifying your car). You'll get use to the smell after a couple of months and not smell it anymore; but when you have a new person in your car they'll notice it and compliment you on it.

BRZfan · 07-10-2013, 07:56 PM

One might also smell like the odor eliminator, i.e. air 'refresher', after one leaves the car.

lol we can share photos, videos, and sound over the internet, but we have yet to figure out how to share a smell. That would be cool if we could.

Jive Turkey · 07-10-2013, 11:51 PM

LOL, if someone would invent that technology...

Compliment?? Only if they like it and if they are truthful.

It is in the process of being invented and still years away.. Source: A recent TV report I had observed.
