go to First Markham Place, theres a big bright auto part store owned by a Japanese guy (forgot name). Its across from the Rogers Store. There are TONS of air fresher there...

im using the type the clips on the air vent...it looks like a jetpack and it comes in different colours/flavors. It says "Air Spencer" on the surface. They all have samples there, very organised. i bought the "squash" which is very popular. It costed me 9.99 and it lasted me a good 4 months. Refill is only 4.99 @ Pacific mall.

I find that the ones that come in a bottle and have a vent release seem to been the strongest and longest lasting. I don't buy those so I couldn't tell you which fragrances smell nice. I'm sure there are plenty for you to choose from though.

I use the "new car smell" tree in my car. Only strong for the first week or so. Either the scent weakens or I've gotten use to it. Frankly my interior vinyl/rubber and leather treatments overwhelm everything else, and I like it

I got one from pacific mall. It comes in a can. It sorta looks like a mini paint can. The can is orange and it has the number 76 on it. The can also has a little handle just like a can of paint.

Its pricey for an air freshner though. I think it was like $15 dollars. I don't know how long it last since I got it back in september. I can't smell it now (I guess I got use to the smell). I still got complements on how good it smells in my car. Everyone that steps into my car tells me how good it smells inside.

The last complement I got was about 2 weeks ago, so I would say it last for at least 3 months.

i use to have those one the click on the vent with jet pack. didnt last that long. well the ones come with it lasted long the but the refills doesnt last that long at all.

The one i'm using now i got from the body shop. its something plug in your car adaptor. and you just put 2 or 3 drops of this scent you can choose from and they have lots of selections on this small little pad and you plug it in the car adaptor.

cost 12 bucks for it and refills is like 2..99 for the scent.... got it in may and still using it...

There is sticky tape thingy at the bottom of the can. It does not smell like oranges.

The scent is called "squash". It smell amazing though.

How about real air-freshners? Not that I use them but they'd work too right?

My car smells like soap and car wash now

Good smell, but I wouldn't want it smelling like that if I get pulled over.

LOL I did get pulled over, they made me take apart my custom trunk, searched my car, searched all occupants (including my friend who was visiting from HK, she'd never even seen a joint in her life). FOund nothin, threatened me on my HID's, then sent me off with "Consider this a wakeup call". Rookies with something to prove.

Oh ××××! You stole that scent from me! Hehehe...that's the one I like using...I go to Japantown, er, my local one in SF...anyways, they carry this "refillable" one where you buy the jar and you buy the liquid and sponge...later, when that wears out, you buy some more liquid...jar/can/whatever, costs about $5 and the liquid is about $4...not bad...I like it...and yes, it's Squash all the way! Not that other "marine squash" or some other weird "squash" scent...speaking of scents, it doesn't even smell like squash...wonder they they called it that?
