Choose the Best Car Freshener for Your Vehicle

Car fresheners may not end world hunger--much less make your car look cooler--but at the very least, they'll make your car's interior smell better. And with all the things you put inside and forget (such as that half-eaten burger you ate a month ago), we can understand how keeping it smelling like a fresh garden can be challenging to do.

Enter car fresheners. They come in all shapes and sizes, so choosing the one which fits you might be a daunting task, to say the least. Here are some car fresheners to choose from that should fit your lifestyle:

The Conservative / Traditionalist

Little Trees Air Freshener: P50+

This iconic air freshener has been in the market for 65 years already, and frankly, we don't think it's going to stop soon.

The Little Trees started with scents that reminded you of pine trees and nature. Over the years, it has expanded to more than 50 scents to satisfy (almost) everyone's olfactory senses today.

The Environmentalist

California Car Scents: 180+

Wouldn't you like to make your car smell good while helping the environment as well? Then you should try California Scents Freshener.

This brand has expanded it variety of organic fragrances from the traditional Monterey Vanilla and La Jolla Lemon to those with added features, like odor-eliminators.

The Practical Minimalist

Moshi Carbon Air Purifying Bags: P300+

If "simplicity" and "long-lasting" is your middle name, then Moshi Carbon Air Purifying Bags might be the one you're looking  for.

This low-maintenance freshener contains activated bamboo charcoal placed inside specially-designed breathable bags. It can last up to 2 years, and can be reused and reactivated by just placing the bags outside the sun once a month (for an hour).

The O.C. (Obsessive-Compulsive)

Glade Sport: P190+

Are you a perfectionist? And do you want things to be as accurate and precise as possible? Then you might want to try Glade Sport. Not only is its design modern and attractive, it also allows you to control the intensity level of your your fragrance down to a tee. That way, you get to make your O.C. personality happy even while you're inside your vehicle.

The Kid at Heart

Long Mouth Dog Deodorant Bamboo Charcoal Bag: P200+

Do you have kids inside the car? Or is your inner child driving your vehicle? If you said yes to either one or both of them, then you should buy the Dog Deodorant Air Purifier.

Don't be deceived by its cuddly cuteness, though: this bamboo charcoal 'stuffed toy' not only absorbs odors and purifies the air, but it  can also shield those inside the vehicle from electromagnetic radiation.

Then perhaps, after a stressful or heartbreaking day, you can secretly cuddle it while listening to Barry Manilow singing 'Mandy'. After all, rumors say Mandy was actually a song for his dog.

The Techie (or Tech-at-Heart)

Nanum Mini USB Auto Portable Car Humidifier Air Purifier: P500+

If you're a tech geek (at heart),  then Nanum Mini USB Auto Portable Car Humidifier Air Purifier might be your "digital dream" come true.

Nanum has two USB interfaces to charge your devices while charging and humidifying your vehicle simultaneously. Lightweight and cool-looking, it also automatically shuts off after 2 hours use to prevent overheating.
