Default Interior Scent

Alright, sooner or later spring WILL be here in Iowa and Time for a new year of hours of detailing and cleaning. I got my to-do-list out and I started checking it over. I never thought about it til now, but What interior Scent would u guys recommend, if any... Currently I just use Febreeze Auto Spray every so often. Any suggestions?

theres a local carwash that has cherry spray for 50 cents. it smells so good and lasts for 2-3 weeks. spray under your seats as well as carpet.
i also like the little things that go in the vents. not sure of the brand, they sell um at walmart.

new car smell gets old. most ppl just tell me that my car smells like leather. its the conditioner.

I never prayed it on leather, I always did it on the carpets. And that cherry stuff really works? I have seen it but never really trusted it.

I gotta have my Yankee Candle I use the car gels and they last 3-4 weeks. I just bought a new scent today; Vanilla Cupcake...I got a 3 pack for $10. I've had Sun & Sand, Clean Cotton, Christmas Cookie(Vanilla Cupcake is pretty close to this), Beach Vacation, and French Vanilla. I highly recommend any of these.

I used to get the banana tree scent thing I think, I used that for about 4 months. I was looking around the store today and I came across these California Scent things. There are three pads in a tin can and they are stronger than anything I have ever had before. they said they last up to sixty days so im going to try that out for a while. I got Coroando Cherry
