What scent is best for a car?
In car dealerships there is a very wide choose fragrances for cars. You can choose any to your taste, as well as for the price.
Don't buy cheap aromatics. They usually have strong odors and can cause nausea and headaches.
It is better to choose a good quality flavor. I like fresh smells. For example, mint, lemon, eucalyptus, coniferous.
According to surveys, most men chose the scent of musky cologne, in second and third places - by a wide margin - the smell of a new car and the smell of vanilla.
Women prefer floral and fruity scents and / or a light scent that mimics the sea breeze.
However, when buying an air freshener, it is much more important to pay attention to whether it is toxic or hazardous to health. To do this, be sure to study the composition, it is advisable to completely avoid synthesized odors.
It is also known that some pungent smells can cause anxiety, even aggression, so light, unobtrusive scents should be preferred.
It's probably all a matter of taste, men are also different. Some people don't like the pungent smell and prefer a more neutral, let's say, calm smell. Well, someone likes a sharp one, so to speak, `` knocked down ''.
Well, based on personal experience of driving a car, I still prefer a floral smell, well, that's understandable, I'm a woman!)
I like new car fragrances, sea breeze fragrances that contain pine tree scent. Unfortunately, in today's variety it is difficult to find a long-lasting fragrance. The only thing I look up to is choosing my smell this is at the price - cheap ones usually do not last long, or the smell, mixing with other smells present in the car, becomes not what it was.
Today there is a large variety of car air fresheners. Which is better, it is very difficult to say, because everyone has their own taste and preferences. But, before choosing a flavoring agent, you need to consider the following, the flavoring agent should not be very strong, so that your head hurts later, the smell should not be pungent and pungent.
There are different flavors, they are in the form of trinkets or bags, helium flavors, liquid, cardboard. Each company has its own flavor.
Before choosing a fragrance and enjoying its scent in the car, it is worth considering that each scent affects the driver in its own way. Some scents affect speed, some affect contraception and attention. Choosing a scent for a car is a very important and responsible task, because the scent spreads in the car interior very quickly, and it is very difficult to remove the scent later.
The most useful air fresheners for a car are with a scent mint, vanilla, pine and cinnamon, it is these aromas that have a beneficial effect on the driver, do not let him fall asleep on the road, relieve fatigue and irritability, the driver becomes attentive on the road.
Scent lemon and coffee also have a beneficial effect on the driver, help to improve attentiveness.
If the driver likes the smell of sea air, then you can safely choose this aroma, because the aroma of fresh sea air has a relaxing effect on the driver, relieves irritability, improves mood and breathing.
But the flavors lavender, jasmine, chamomile, not worth buying, because these aromas have a detrimental effect on the driver's condition.
These scents can cause depression, different memories of a loved one, dull reactions.
The scent of forest and wildflowers makes the driver feel sad, so these aromas should also be avoided.
You should not pay attention to the aromas of exotic fruits, although the aromas are pleasant, but are not intended for the car interior, the driver becomes irritable, inattentive after inhaling this aroma.
So not only should you pay attention to the flavor of the flavoring agent, but also to its structure. For example, inexpensive fragrances are often made from cardboard, which fill the car interior with a delicate and pleasant aroma.
Helium fragrances have many advantages, one of which is that the aroma in the car lasts much longer than that of nylon fragrances, has a better appearance, but compared to nylon fragrances, the price of helium fragrances is too high.
Liquid car fragrances have a liquid structure, the fragrance lasts a long time, but the fragrance bottle ends very quickly.
There are also natural fragrances, which are made from natural herbs and spices, these fragrances do not cause allergic reactions, they have a persistent, pleasant aroma that spreads throughout the car interior.
The fragrance is made in the form of a beautiful figurine that is attached to the salon.
So there are a lot of shock absorbers, but it is best to buy a fragrance with a scent vanilla, cinnamon, mint, sea wave, lemon and coffee.
But you need to choose a company yourself, but I like Paloma, Aroma, and essential oils.
The aromatization of the car interior, performed by professionals, allows you to solve two problems at once. First, the air inside the car takes on a pleasant aroma for a long time. Secondly, the smell is not just masked, but completely removed.
Features of car interior automation
All sorts of odors stay in the car for a long time due to the fact that inside the car there are many porous and fluffy materials that can retain pleasant and not very pleasant aromas.
To eliminate stench and make the air fresh, it is necessary to remove sources of odor from the most difficult to reach places.
The professional aromatization of the machine is carried out using special equipment that sprays the aroma. Such the technology is called "dry fog", its features include:
- fragrance particles are small, no more than 15 microns. This allows dry smoke to penetrate into areas inaccessible to liquid detergents... This "fog" penetrates the duct, heating and air conditioning system;
- substances used in cosmetology and food industry are used as flavoring agents. They are completely harmless to people and pets, non-toxic and fireproof;
- fragrance microparticles do not just mask the smell - they penetrate deep into the material and eliminate the cause of the stench;
- aromatization of car interiors is done very quickly. Depending on the size of the machine, processing will take from 30 to 45 minutes;
- the effect after aromatization is long-lasting. The pleasant smell will be felt in the salon for at least 2 months.
The fragrant "dry fog" will not leave marks on the upholstery of the seats and interior. After processing, there is no need to waste time drying.
The car can be used in the usual cutoff mode after the aromatization of the interior has been carried out.
How aromatization of the car interior is carried out
Special fluids are used to treat the car. They contain purified water and food flavoring. The car owner can choose the scent of cherries, meadow grasses or citrus fruits. To remove tobacco odor, special formulations are used that do not have a pronounced odor. After such treatment, the cabin smells fresh.
The aromatization of the car interior is carried out using a special apparatus capable of generating a "dry fog" from liquids. The processing process is quite simple.
For some car owners, the car is the second home where they spend most of their time. Drivers want to do everything to feel comfortable on the road. To provide a pleasant smell in the car, many people think: which fragrance is better for the car? Let's try to figure it out.
Now on the market for air fresheners and "scent" there are many different products that help in the fight against unpleasant odor in the cabin. The main sources are the air conditioning system or the stove.
Why do you need flavors
Air fresheners have numerous benefits:
- They give a pleasant aroma in the car interior.
- Drown out the smell of rubber, tobacco smoke or plastic.
- They cheer you up, allow you to relax or concentrate on the road.
Types of flavors
Flavors are different types: emulsion, liquid and powder. By application: fat and oil, confectionery, gastronomic and beverage. Among automotive products, the following are distinguished:
How to choose the right one
In order to understand which flavor is the best, we recommend you try it in practice. It often happens that beautiful packaging and a delicious aroma in practice emit a rather unpleasant smell in the cabin.
It is also worth deciding which air fresheners are suitable for your car. For example, some people prefer a long-lasting scent, while others need a cheaper freshener.
As mentioned above, the most persistent odors are microbeads, they allow you to keep the smell for about 20 days. If you choose by cost, then natural natural flavors are considered the most expensive.
Air fresheners and fragrances: what's the difference?
All car air fresheners are divided into two types:
- Odor absorbers. They are a special substance that can absorb any odors in the cabin.
- Conventional flavors. Capable of releasing and evaporating aromatics. But they only mask smells.
Also, when choosing an automator for a car, it is worth considering the effect of one or another smell. That is, some can relieve stress, help to relax, focus on the road. Others, on the contrary, can annoy, create discomfort or distract the driver. The choice in this case remains only with the car owner.
Fragrances
Statistically, the best car scents are spruce, citrus and pine. They help the driver when long journeys, improve response and invigorate. In addition, they smell very pleasant and unobtrusive.
Mandarin, mint and ocean breeze are better suited for those who need to be more careful on the road, to keep a good mood and good spirits.
Based on the recommendations of experts, you can use the following scheme: in the summer, choose fruit aromas, in the spring - fresh blooming smells, in the winter - citrus. If you need to cheer up, a coffee aroma will help, and a sea breeze will help you relax.
A little about the manufacturers
The widest assortment of fragrances from world manufacturers and Chinese production is presented in automobile stores. The sales leaders are Eikosha, Carmate, Areon, DIAX, MEDO, Car Fresh.
The most popular among motorists are the Christmas trees of the American manufacturer Car Fresh. They are inexpensive and capable of producing pleasant aromas in the car for about two weeks.
AQUA BLUE air fresheners are in great demand. They are made from natural ingredients that are placed in a glass jar. The fragrance perfectly saturates the car interior with marine aromas. Attaches with Velcro at any convenient place.
AUTODOC is no less interesting and popular. In the series of car air fresheners, there are several fragrances:
- Ocean breeze.
- Crystal flower.

Among men, these scents are the most common, but women in practice prefer more fruity notes. Interestingly, with the scent of a new car, some car owners pass off an old car as a new car.
One cannot but say a few words about the Bulgarian company Aeron. Of course, everyone has met the fragrances of this company in a car shop. Such models are better in terms of value for money. Flavors have a lot of fans. 
We've disassembled the flavors, now let's move on to practical tips for use. I think they will be useful to you in choosing.
- Avoid direct contact of the air freshener with plastic surfacesbecause the paint from the air freshener can corrode them.
- After installing the fragrance, be sure to wash your hands so as not to harm your health. It is also strictly forbidden to taste them.
- The package must contain the batch number, manufacturer's phone numbers and legal address.
- The main difference between high-quality car fragrances is their smell. The original ones have more pleasant and natural ones. Counterfeits have strong odors that cause irritation.
- Choose products from only trusted manufacturers for the salon of your car, because only in this case they will give you real comfort during the trip.
- Sometimes after a purchase, it turns out that on-site the fragrance smells completely different than in the store. To do this, we advise you to print the purchase in the store and, if there is no smell, refuse the product.
Finally
Choosing the right scent for a car is a serious and difficult business. This is an important process for every car owner, because it is he who spends time in the car, which means that what good aroma will reign in the cabin is completely his task.
Don't just rely on the cost of the flavor. So we figured out which fragrances for your car will be the best. If you are still at a loss with the choice, then at first try citrus and mint fresheners, they help to concentrate and invigorate.
Various marine scents are quite unobtrusive, pleasant and not annoying. Let the choice be positive for you, give comfort and positiveness during the trip.
Car owners spend a significant portion of their time driving. To keep the emotional state in order, the car must be very comfortable. All interior details are important: the softness of the seat, the harmonious arrangement of the controls, the comfort of the steering wheel, quality materials and a presentable appearance. And plays a significant role in creating comfort. If the cabin smells only of cigarettes and exhaust fumes from the street, it will be difficult to maintain a clear mind. Therefore, many car enthusiasts use special devices - car fragrances. What they are for and how to choose the right air freshener for your car, we will tell you in this article.
Types of car air fresheners
Flavors are presented in a wide variety and it can be difficult to choose the right one right away. They differ in price, type, odor duration and effect on the body. Let's consider the most common ones.
Impregnated air freshener in the car.
Impregnated flavor
This is the most widely known and readily available flavoring variant. Everyone has probably seen similar ones in cars of friends. They represent a cardboard base impregnated with a perfume composition. There are various forms, the Christmas trees of the Car Freshner company are widely known. In Russia, mainly cheap products of little-known manufacturers with a characteristic smell of men's perfume are widespread.
The impregnated air fresheners are attached by a rope to the handle or the front mirror in the car. They do not hold the aroma for long - one to two weeks, which makes it possible to frequently change the aroma in the car.
Liquid flavors.
Sold as a colored liquid in a bottle. The liquid gradually evaporates and gives off a pleasant aroma. Such air fresheners are often attached to the deflector grille: the air entering the cabin immediately takes on a pleasant smell. They keep the smell longer - up to two months. Also, liquid fragrances look more beautiful and do not distract the driver from the road, unlike suspended "stinkers". Because of this, they are more expensive.
Also, the advantages of liquid flavorings include resistance to low temperatures... Some solvents, such as dipropylene glycol, do not freeze in freezing temperatures. Therefore, for winter trips, it is better to make sure that this solvent is included in the composition. However, this can also be a disadvantage: most solvents corrode paint and cause plastic to swell, and colored fillers can leave stubborn marks. Therefore, the liquid fragrance must be securely held in an upright position.
Gel fresheners.
They are gels placed in a box with a hole. The substance is viscous inside, so it cannot quickly pour out of the bottle and harm the interior of the car. The fragrance is one of the longest, it can last up to four months. However, gel flavors harden at freezing temperatures and therefore do not smell in winter.
Granular flavors.
Dry Granular Lemon Flavor
The solid carrier absorbs a large amount of fragrances and does not evaporate in the machine. Therefore, its service life is higher than other options - up to ten months.
It is also not scary to spill granular air freshener - solid particles do not leave marks.
These advantages along with pleasant appearance make solid flavors some of the most expensive.
"Simple" option. Some car enthusiasts prefer to save on a pleasant scent and simply spray cologne onto the deflector grille. It is worth refraining from this method for a number of reasons. The smell from this method is quite harsh, but does not last very long. A large portion of cologne, in addition to the pungent odor, evaporates very quickly from the grill, which forces people in the car to breathe with solvent vapors.
The most famous fragrances and how they affect the body
The aromas also differ: they are invigorating or hypnotic, sharp and subtle. What smell should you focus on?
The best and most unobtrusive option is the so-called smell " new car". He does not focus on himself and simply maintains a pleasant atmosphere in the car, removing unpleasant odors. The inscription "new car" is present on the fresheners of many manufacturers, regardless of the type of fragrance. If you don't have a particular preference, stop there.
Floral aromas are soothing, but these are best not overused. Chamomile and jasmine can dull brain function, and the smell of a rose makes you sleepy. Both are very dangerous on the road, so such scents should be used with caution.
The smell of conifers and citrus, on the other hand, is encouraging. This helps the driver concentrate and be more focused on the road. But constant exposure to stimulating aromas can overwork your head and backfire. Therefore, on an ongoing basis, it is better to use unobtrusive odors, and use soothing or tonic as appropriate.
It is amazing how the smell in the car affects the mood of the driver and his actions. The scent can increase or decrease concentration, irritation and even aggression, which can lead to life-threatening situations
Head of British RAC Foundation - Sue Nicholson
As we've seen, the sense of smell has the ability to conjure up memories from the past, changing our mood. The right smell in the car will allow the driver to concentrate on the road, recognize the danger in time and reduce irritation caused by other road users. The wrong aroma, on the contrary, will lead to aggressive behavior, speeding, drowsiness.
If you have a car, then you are probably familiar with the numerous car interior fragrances, popularly called "stinkers". They were given this name for a reason, to be convinced of this, it is enough to take a couple of breaths from a bottle with air freshener. Most of these air fresheners are made from cheap raw materials by people far from "high" perfumery, because truly talented perfumers do not undertake the development of fragrances for conventional car air fresheners. An exception can be considered only individual orders, for example, such as designer perfume for new Mercedes from perfumer Marc vom Ende or unique system perfume dispenser for Maybach.
But what if your car isn't a brand new S-Class? There is a solution. We, together with our European colleagues, corrected the situation by developing, perhaps, the first truly high-quality car perfume.
Some of our clients use it to eliminate the smell of tobacco smoke and animals, others - to treat the interior before selling (the car really turns out to sell more expensive), and someone uses this perfume just to cheer up making the trip a real pleasure. For example, taxi drivers in premium cars use perfume to improve passenger comfort, which has a positive effect on the tip.
So, we present our collection of selective car perfumes:
The scent of expensive leather and nothing more. The composition is as close as possible to the aroma of seats installed in premium cars. Previously, it was the natural smell of leather and seat filling, but now, in an effort to be environmentally friendly, manufacturers are increasingly using less-smelling materials, and the traditional scent is achieved through the perfume component (leather is treated with a special composition to recreate the classic scent of the first models that have become classics). Each manufacturer has its own aroma, the formula is kept secret and can consist of more than 800 different shades... We will be understood by those who at least once were lucky enough to ride an early model of Jaguar or Rolls Royce silver Cloud 65 years old.
You can argue for a long time about what notes the scent of a new car contains: this, of course, leather, and also wood, varnish, textiles, vinyl, plastic, glue. But all true connoisseurs will definitely agree that the smell expensive car - this is a kind of aphrodisiac and it plays an important role even when buying. At one time, the sale of new Rolls royce fell only due to the fact that the interior of new cars has lost its characteristic "classic flavor". Fortunately, the manufacturer realized what was the matter in time and solved the problem by contacting experienced perfumers, although he spent a pretty penny on the "upgrade". Now everything is much simpler: one "zip" and your car will become more luxurious!
Application: spray onto rugs or into the air
According to the British RAC Foundation, the following odors are dangerous while driving:
Jasmine, lavender, chamomile have a relaxing effect, dulling the reaction.
Fresh bread, the smell of food, baked goods, pastries increase the feeling of hunger, make the driver rush to eat something, causing irritability and aggressive behavior on the road.
Pine, freshly cut grass, flowers can cause nostalgia and divert attention from the road. For people with allergies, some natural flower fragrances can cause tearing and sneezing.
Perfumes, colognes, lotions are also able to evoke various fantasies and memories, distracting from the road.
Is it so safe complete absence smells? Scientists, studying the behavior of astronauts, have come to the conclusion that the complete absence of odors leads to irritability and olfactory hallucinations.
Recommendations for choosing fragrances:
Peppermint and Cinnamon Improve Concentration and Reduce Irritability
Lemon and coffee help you achieve clear thinking and improve concentration
The smell of a new car tends to make you feel more cautious about driving.
The scent of the salty sea breeze promotes deep breathing, relieves stress, and helps to calm down.
