Expert Notes

The California Scents Car Scents tin is a can freshener rather than a hanging card. A biodegradable fibre pad holding 100% organic fragrance oil sits inside a recyclable aluminium canister, topped with an adjustable vented lid that sets how much fragrance is released. Once opened it freshens for up to 60 days, and it is made in the USA. It sits in a cup holder or under a seat, which suits drivers who want nothing hanging from the mirror, and it works in vans, trucks and rooms at home too. Choose from 14 scents, from Coronado Cherry to Newport New Car. Pair it with an interior cleaner and a vacuum so it freshens a clean cabin.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Cars
  • Vans
  • Trucks
  • Cup holders
  • Under seats
  • Tight spaces in the cabin
  • Rooms at home
  • Drawers and wardrobes

Caution: Keep the scent pads from touching fabric, plastic or painted surfaces, and keep the tin out of reach of children and pets.

How To Use

Using it

  1. Choose your scent and open the can when you are ready to use it.
  2. Stand it upright in a cup holder or place it under a seat.
  3. Make sure it cannot roll into the footwell or under the pedals.
  4. Set the vented lid to control how much fragrance is released.
  5. Wash your hands if you touch the scent pads.

Making it last

  1. Start with the vents partly open for a lighter scent.
  2. Open the vents wider as the fragrance begins to fade.
  3. Turn the pads over when the scent fades, as California Scents advises.
  4. Move a fading can to a smaller space such as a drawer or wardrobe.
  5. Recycle the aluminium can through your local collection when finished.

Top Tip: Set the vented lid while parked, never while driving, and check the can sits firmly before moving off.

It is one of the auto care brands of Energizer Holdings, alongside names such as Armor All. The official range covers sprays, scent blocs, cans, fibreboard and gel fresheners, foggers, novelty designs, paper hangers, pump sprays, vent fresheners and hanging vials, in fragrances with names such as Coronado Cherry, Monterey Vanilla and Newport New Car.

The Drivers HQ stocks the California Scents Palms paper hanger, sold as the California Scents 2D Palm, in scents including Newport New Car, Ocean Wave, Monterey Vanilla and Capistrano Coconut.

California Scents suits drivers who want an easy way to keep the cabin smelling fresh between washes, or who like a splash of California colour on the rear-view mirror.

California Car Scents Air Freshener - The Drivers HQ

The Fun Energy of California

California Scents describes its purpose simply: its powerful scents are meant to transform your car and your mood, and to deliver the fun energy that only comes from California. The brand's product pages sign off with the words Live fresh, and it describes its Palms hangers as super cute and so California, with a fun palm tree design in bright colours.

That California theme runs through the fragrances themselves. The brand describes its Newport New Car scent as combining a clean new car smell with the scent of vibrant ocean air and salty waves of Newport Beach, and scent names such as Coronado Cherry, Monterey Vanilla, Laguna Breeze and Shasta Strawberry carry the same Californian flavour.

California Scents is part of Energizer Holdings, which lists it among the well-known auto care brands it continues to expand internationally, alongside names such as Armor All and Bahama & Co. The brand's own website carries an Energizer Brands copyright notice.

CALIFORNIA SCENTS 2D PALM CAR AIR FRESHENER - CORONADO CHERRY (4 PACK) - The Drivers HQ

Palms Hangers

The Palms paper hanger is the California Scents format The Drivers HQ stocks. The brand describes Palms as delivering a strong, intense scent to freshen your car, truck or SUV, with a hanging loop for quick, convenient fitting from the rear-view mirror. Each one comes in sealed packaging to help it keep its scent until you are ready to use it, and the brand notes it can also freshen an RV, laundry room or bathroom.

The scents range from fruity to fresh. Coronado Cherry offers the scent of tart cherries, while the brand says Ice delivers notes of rich leather, soft suede and freshly-applied aftershave. The Drivers HQ stocks Palms as single hangers.
