I use that too (outdoor breeze scent), but its really strong so I keep it in the center console. If I leave it loose in the car and leave my windows down, I can smell it in the hallway going to the garage when its brand new

Problem is, all of these things don't kill the odor. By themselves, they might smell good like fruity citrus. But in your car, it'll small like fruity citrus and wet dog.

I have yet to find something that WORKS as well as smells good. If even tried febreeze type of products. (BTW, febreeze stuff works better than those JDM car scent-yo thingies.

yea the squash scent is the most popular. i would recommend this one too. but the downside is that the refills cost 8-10$, youll have to find it at those asian places, and it doesnt last very long (1-4weeks). try keeping it out of the sun.

Any air freshener works in my cars heh but i on the other hand don't eat or smoke in my cars. My dog does rides in my car once in a while but she is so small she doesn't smell lol. The only thing you might find in my car is some gum wrappers in the door slot area heh. My cars are still very new and i don't drive them a whole lot. Love that they smell all clean and fresh and probably will for a long time. Least everyone who gets in my cars say it smells good

Honestly sounds like you need StupidDents Fog odor removal job. Seems other say it works really well. I would do it for sure if my car smelled like wet dog cus i hate that smell. The biggest reason i bought a 4lb dog lol didnt want the wet dog smell all the time.
