    I don’t know why I was so scared to try this. I’ve had it for like a week and been afraid to use it. I’m glad I did.It discharges in less than a minute. It seems to have a low capacity, not much inside, but it’s really powerful and does a great job. It has a really pleasant smell. Not necessarily “new car-ish,” but it’s really nice. I think it works great.I accidentally forgot to put the air on recirculate, so only ran it about half the recommended time on that mode but it still smells really good. I definitely would buy this again, good value and I think it’s one of my favorite things I’ve bought for the car in a little while.As cars age, they just accumulate smells that you can’t get rid of by cleaning. This is a really great idea and product. I’m definitely a fan.

    This is a little embarrassing to admit, but I was dealing with some mold in my car from leaving the window open and despite cleaning the car extensively and letting it air out for days in the summer heat, it still had that distinct mildew smell, also mixed with the smell of the vinegar used to clean the whole car and carpets. I bought this in hopes that it would freshen up the smell. It was simple to use, except mine did end up stopping midway through and I had to go back into my car to restart it. I got the “new car smell” and even though I wouldn’t describe the scent as what a new car actually smells like, it does smell good. The scent is a little strong still even after a few days have passed since using it. But fortunately, there is no trace of the mold or vinegar smell which I am happy about.

    Used on a midsize truck w/ cloth seats. No spills or major dirtiness within the truck, but after about 30k miles, a noticeable smell began to arise with the summer heat.Using Meguiar’s refreshener, I followed the instructions fully, and the car initially had an incredibly strong smell. It isn’t really accurate to “New Car Scent,” but it’s close enough.The scent masked the mildew-y smell that was previously in the truck for about 8 days, then rapidly lost effectiveness.(Side note — I performed a full deep-clean and heat extraction on the cloth and fabric parts of the truck prior to using the Meguiar’s. If your vehicle is presently dirty, eliminate the source of the smell before using something like this!)

    It was simple fast and got the job done. Brand new truck had defective back window where it was getting wet for months when it rained. Dealer finally found issue fixed it but did nothing about the mildew wet smell. This stuff got rid of it with no scrubbing or vacumming! Highly recommended

    I occasionally smoke in my car and hate the “stale” cigarette smell that lingers. Thought I’d try this. Simple and easy to use, and smoke smell has disappeared. The product smell is ok and much better than cigarette smoke! I don’t understand how anyone can complain about the smell…I’d much rather smell the “chlorine-like” smell than old smoke. I’d def purchase again!

    I recently gave the Whole Car Air Re-Fresher Odor Eliminator a shot, and I’ve got to say, it works wonders. This thing really gets rid of all the nasty smells in the car. Whether it’s food, pets, or anything else, it completely eliminated all the lingering smells. My car now smells like it’s brand new. The process is a breeze. You just activate it, leave it in the car with the AC on, and let it do its thing. No hassle at all. The fresh scent sticks around for a long time. It’s been weeks, and my car still smells fantastic. The canister is small and convenient, so you can store it easily and use it whenever you need it. Honestly, the Whole Car Air Re-Fresher Odor Eliminator is a game-changer for keeping my car smelling fresh

    I recently bought a new (to me) car. It had a “cologne” smell which seemed to get stronger the more I drove it. Additionally, the vents emitted a “dead flower” smell when air conditioner or “fresh air” was on. I tried everything I could think of and the smell persisted. Until I ordered this product! I used it yesterday per the instructions and the cologne and dead flower smell is gone! The bad smells were replaced by a very pleasant, not overpowering, clean smell. Now I look forward to driving my “new” car – it smells great!

    I went on a road-trip with my kids and 45 minutes into an 11 hour drive my 11 year old son through up in the car. We pulled into a gas station quickly and were able to clean up most of the mess with water and copious amounts of paper towels, but could only do so much. After arriving home we did a thorough job and cleaned it all up. Regardless, the car still had a slight stink to it, which I can only assume was because of driving with that smell recirculating for so long. I bought this product and it completely removed that smell and has a wonderful scent to it that my boys and I absolutely love. It’s been 1.5 weeks since using it and the pleasant smell is still there. Absolutely love this. I have a model Y and in the Florida summer with all the rains, it gets that stinky stock smell when you first turn on the A/C. I’m very interested to see how this does if it keeps that smell away.

    I don’t normally write reviews but for this I must.First of all, I never expected this to work as well as it did. I bought a used car that had a smoke smell and something else not great. I used this stuff thinking, well, it can’t be worse than Tobacco smell. At first the smell of this stuff was crazy strong and I was worried. It has since dissipated almost entirely but it took ALL of the other odors with it. I finally feel like the car I bought is my own and I love it so much. Thank you for this!!!!

  11. High quality!

    I tried a refresh car fogger and I followed the same steps exactly as instructed on the bottle. I could still smell the smell when I opened the door and after airing the car out. The next day the car smelled like exactly it did prior to the fogger. I believe my husband spilled milk or something maybe coffee it was a really awful smell. I shampooed all the seats and the carpet and could not get rid of the smell. I came across this product and it worked! The smell is gone and it still smells fresh!!!!

    High quality!

  12. RC Gray

    Pros:(1) Extremely easy to use! Simply remove the cap and lock the auto-spray, blast the AC and it really cleans out the vents and odor.Cons:(1) Has a very STRONG chemical odor smell at first, which is to be expected as its trying to clean out the negative smell/odors.Be nice if it has a vanilla or coconut finish.How Did I use this product:I used this product in my Tesla Model 3. I replaced the interior cabin air filters with some nicer higher end ones due to a musty “wet dog” smell. Once I had pulled out the old air filters and before placing them in, I ran my AC on high with the circulation mode on for 15min while this released into my car.It INSTANTLY made a MASSIVE difference and improvement.Great product, great value.

    My son puked everywhere in my car. It’s been almost 2 months and the smell hasn’t dissipated. I can’t bear it anymore. I tried buying a bottle and spraying it . Today, the smell in the whole car has become much better. Thank you for the air freshener. The only disadvantage is that I feel the amount is a bit small

    The product was very easy to use. The smell in pleasant. I am not sure how long the smell will last as we are not only 14 days out at this point.

    Loaned my truck for a month to a smoker and it came back “odorific”. Cleaned it and cleaned it but in the winter smell got into the vents.Used this little gem and it worked great! Smells good and has smelled good for several weeks with no scent of the tobacco.

    It definitely does the job intended but the smell is very intense. I did it in my building open space garage and it stunk up the entire parking area and it’s not really a new car scent. I would recommend if you don’t mind strong scents because it works.

    Product worked better than expected. Bought used car and after 3 months had strong vinegar smell like they were trying to clear an odor but what they used to cover the vinegar wore off. This got rid of all offshoots and left the car with a clean new car scent. It has been a few weeks and vinegar odor has not returned yet!!

  22. Ivan Stark

    I would have gave this 5 stars but I didn’t like the scent. It smells like the inside of a new cowboy boot lol. Like a strong rubber smell. Definitely NOT a new car scent. But over all, it got the smell of mildew out. Real simple to use. Just follow the instructions on the can. Would recommend wiping down all windows and interior after the process is complete. Would probably use this product again if needed. I’m also a previous user of Maguire’s products.

    The car air freshener bomb I tried was fantastic! It did wonders in freshening up my car, leaving a pleasant and long-lasting fragrance that lingered throughout. The scent was delightful and effectively masked any unwanted odors, making every drive a more enjoyable experience. Overall, it’s a must-have for anyone looking to keep their car smelling great.

    Did not remove the smoke smell in the car. Don’t spend your money using this product waste of money.

    I found these after trying to get ride of a odor in the car from a garbage bag leak in the trunk. I had steamed/scrubbed and was still left with a “hint” of the odor. This thing took care of the odor and left the car smelling amazing! I know run them in the system every now and then just for a refresh. Great product!

    I took my truck to the dealer and the freakin auto techs smoked in my truck… actually found an ash on my dashboard. Needless to say I was desperate to get the smell out because it was giving me a headache. I first tried this https://amzn.to/3t36LbZ and it worked, the smoke smell was definitely lessened.I wasn’t a huge fan of the chemical smell it left behind though… I decided to try this Meguires brand on top and man I am very pleased with the results. My truck now has 0 hint of any smoke smell and legit has a new car smell. Very pleased and I will be recommending this to everyone. This would be good to run in your car every so often even if you didn’t smoke. Combine that with replacing your cabin filter immediately after using this odor eliminator and you’ll have your vehicle smelling brand new in 15 minutes.

    I drive a pickup truck that’s almost 20 years old. It’s seen some things lol. I gave my truck a good detailing and wanted to knock out any funky smells, saw this inexpensive fogger and figured it couldn’t hurt to try. It worked SO good. Even my dad commented on how nice it smelled inside a week after using it. It’s been 3 weeks and it still smells great in there. I got the “new car smell” one and it has an almond extract type of scent that I really enjoy. It almost makes my truck smell lightly of amaretto which I love. I’ll definitely buy and use this product again!

    I love this and it worked for a very long time but after a while the scent started to come back. I’m not sure if I’ll buy this again but it did work well for a while.

    Like the idea of this. Never used before and was curious how well this would work and since it was a low price I figured why not. Read the directions and park in the shade if possible.Set off the bomb and waited 20 minutes for it to do its thing. Opened up the doors and the scent was strong. Not crazy about the new car scent. If there was another option like vanilla or just a clean scent I would of went with that.It does get rid of bad smells like cigarettes, I smoke in my car and I noticed it’s not as bad.It’s been 4 days since I used this and the new car scent is not as strong but I can still smell it and it’s ok. I would buy this again in a different scent.

    riend vomited on the back seat, I could not get the odor to come off until I used this spray! It removed all odor

    love this but to be upfront do not waste your time with running the AC to get it into the system it won’t really have an impact just treat it like a normal bug bomb, set it, close the doors let it finish spraying wait a few minutes then take it out and toss it. It will give you a nice-smelling car for about 10 days or so.

    my friends!. Works great!!! Got rid of the cigarette smell in my husband’s truck. After cleaning the truck up using this spray, it’s like driving a new vehicle!!! You don’t just spray It, it’s like a spray bomb. The truck literally smells like a new vehicle! Recommending it to my friends and yes, I’ll use it again if the need arises!!! Great product!

    d car from the dealer with amazing miles, love the car. The only problem was the smell because the previous owner was a smoker. I was skeptical but bought this… my car has never smelled better! And the dealer supposedly did a “deep clean”. Worth it. Every dealer should buy it in bulk for every car before someone purchases.
