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.

HQ Suggests Tips & Insights

  1. Wipe the cup holder clean and dry before placing the tin.
  2. Choose a snug cup holder so the tin stays upright.
  3. Lift the tin out before vacuuming under the seats.
  4. Use one scent per vehicle so fragrances do not clash.
  5. Keep a spare sealed can in the glovebox for when one fades.
  6. Vacuum mats and seats regularly so odours are not trapped in the cabin.
  7. Keep the lid on when carrying the tin between car and home.
  8. Order online with UK-wide delivery from The Drivers HQ.

California Scents Palms paper hangers

The Palms. California Scents calls its Palms paper hanger super cute and so California: a scented paper disc with a palm tree design and the scent name on a wavy band, with a hanging loop for the rear-view mirror. The maker says it gives a strong, intense scent in a car, truck or SUV, comes in a sealed package to keep the fragrance until you open it, and also suits an RV, a bathroom or a laundry room.

Single Palms by colour. Coronado Cherry is hot pink with the scent of tart cherries, and Shasta Strawberry the softer rose pink. Newport New Car is bright blue, Ocean Wave deep teal and Laguna Breeze the palest turquoise. Monterey Vanilla is purple with a pink sun, Capistrano Coconut tan with brown palms, Ice silver grey with black palms, and California Clean completes the set.

Four packs. One card holds four palms with a scratch and sniff spot on the front, in Coronado Cherry, Shasta Strawberry, Ice and the yellow Tropical Colada.

California Scents Car Scents cans

The can. The California Car Scents can sits in a cup holder or under a seat, so nothing hangs from the mirror. Inside a recyclable aluminium canister, a biodegradable fibre pad holds organic fragrance oil, and the vented lid twists to set how much fragrance comes out, which also stretches its life. The can is spillproof, and once opened it freshens for up to 60 days in a car, van or truck, or a room at home. It is made in the USA.

Fourteen scents. The can comes in Tropical Colada, Capistrano Coconut, Concord Cranberry, Coronado Cherry, Fresh Linen, Golden State Delight, Ice, Laguna Breeze, Malibu Melon, Monterey Vanilla, Newport New Car, Santa Barbara Berry, Shasta Strawberry and Verri Berry. The maker describes Ice as crisp notes of aftershave, smooth suede and rich leather.

Getting the best from it. Freshen a clean cabin: vacuum the carpets and seats and deal with the source of any smell first. Open the lid fully for a stronger scent in a bigger vehicle, and close it down for a lighter scent or a longer life.

A can or a few Palms in a favourite scent make a simple stocking filler for any driver. Shop more under-seat and can air fresheners and air fresheners and odour control.
