What's the nicest smelling odor for my car?

Hello, my Sunfire is half a year old and the new car smell has mostly faded away. It's being replaced by a sort of musty smell, which is very faint, but detectable when the car door hasn't been opened for more than a day. I saw a whole bunch of different sprays and those things you hang around the rearview mirror at Walmart but wasn't sure which one to buy.

How do I make it smell really nice? I want it to smell so amazing, that when someone sits in my car, he'll go "WOW!!! This is the most amazing smelling car I've ever been in! You are SO cool!". But I don't want the smell to be too strong so that it will bother me. Any recommendations?

Smell is all a matter of opinion. What smells like roses to me could smell like ass to you. Go smell them all for yourself.

I hate air fresheners because I think they smell cheap. I keep a bottle of cologne in the car and spray it every once in a while. Works wonders.

I spray cologne every so often if not go find those little cans called california scents and put one in the center console or glove box.

Re: What's the nicest smelling odor for my car?

try going back to walmart and try to find the wooded rossary, which is the only air freshner that I am using. Its not strong just enough to make your car to smell like brand new and it doesn't give headaches.

Re: What's the nicest smelling odor for my car?

I wish they'd make an air freshener that smelled like burning wood on a cold winter's night. I like driving down the road in the winter and having the scent of someone burning wood in their fireplace enter my car. It's what I'd call a "comfort odor" similar to "comfort food".
