"you simply spray the product and the mist then penetrates the whole interior of your car completely eliminating any unwanted odours"

"who could complain about that?"

"i finally got rid of the old mouldy smell from my air con with was irritating my asthma"

"this makes your car smell horrible and getting rid of the smell is a very long process"

"of course being in lockdown i wasn’t going to be driving the car for the next couple of days so then went to the shops and all i could smell from the air vents was this very potent smell it was like very strong boot leather"

"i feel that the overall effect of the product worked well but as the door was opened between it doing what it needed to the job wasn't done correctly"

"i normally use a very discreet air freshener in the car that clips to the air vent"

"garbage scent crept inside your nostrils insidiously making every journey a real chore"

"the product is implausibly simple to use and works just a described"

"didn't meet my expectations"

"didn’t take odours away"

"my car does not actually smell too bad so this may have been a little bit of overkill"

"it was slightly more frustrating to use than i`d hoped and also less effective"

"you have to release the complete contents in your car but when i went back to the car in 15 minutes i realised the button had not stayed down so the full contents had not been released and not sure exactly how much was released"

"however what i really didn’t like was that it was picked up on my clothes"

"having used a few meguair products i thought this would great"

"i couldn't drive for the next 4 days afterwards without the windows down after a day of not even using the car and could smell it on my clothes after being in the car"
