    Best air freshener ever ?

    What would be the best car air freshener of all time ? for me it has to be "feu orange" - original - the traffic light one, with the gold chain & the pin to pierce the bubble - haven't seen one for years though

      every car have specific smell of interior , that mean the one air freshener will not have the same smell in 2 different cars.. you must find some smell which will mix with smell of your car interior and smell good...

      WUNDERBAUM "new car" was perfect for my audi 100 , but not for my audi 200 (leather interior) ... smell was different ..

              When I saw the headline, I instantly thought of the traffic light thing my dad used to keep in our FinnDatsun.

              Does this feu orange reproduction have the same scent as the original one?

                Got to agree with that. I distinctively remember the smell of the interior when i first went for a drive in what is now my s2.

                It doesn't matter what chemicals i use on the interior either, it still smells of RS2 leather recaro's

                  Yes but Audi leather combined with a vanilla magic tree is a glorious aroma

                    Yeah my Coupe had the same smell, as did my Avant, and does the RS2... some good leather cleaner that just cleans and has no scent brings out the Eau du S2

                    In the same way that hot Audi smell after a good run fills the garage - perhaps it' the mixture of coolant and V-power fumes? But again, they've all smelt the same.

                          Does anyone else always think it smells a little too hot, or is that just my performance car paranoia kicking in?
