Works perfectly; but use it SPARINGLY! UPDATED after 1 year.
I was hesitant to try this product due to the mixed reviews. I'm really glad I decided to give it a try! My car has seen family road trips, diaper changes in the back seat, spilled juice boxes, etc. After using this product, my car smells awesome. No, it's not an EXACT perfect match for "new car" -- but it is definitely the closest I have ever found and I will be using this product again and again to keep my car smelling new. Definitely listen to the other reviewers and DILUTE this stuff first, and use it SPARINGLY. Seriously, a little goes a long way. I suspect a lot of the negative reviews are a result of using way too much product. I diluted about 10 sprays into about a 1/2 cup of water in a separate spray bottle. Then I sprayed the floor mats and the backs of the seats, and left my car with the windows open to air out for a few hours. When I came back, it smelled like a car I was taking for a test drive. :) So far, it's been 3 days since I used it, and we have taken a few family trips to the pool. I was worried about the chlorine smell from wet bathing suits, etc eliminating the "new car" smell, but it hasn't and my car still smells great. I'll update when the smell finally needs refreshing. At around $10, the initial investment is higher than the cheap air fresheners that you might pick up at a big box store, but this bottle will last me a very long time. I diluted 10 sprays into a smaller bottle of water, and used probably a fifth of it for one application, so you can figure about 2 sprays per use. I will definitely recommend this product to others when they ask me how I keep my car smelling so good! UPDATE: So, I am terrible about using this regularly... I have a toddler and a newborn and the car almost never gets a good spray down. I've used this spray only a few times over the last year, and my car STILL smells good. I just thought to update this review because a friend got into my car the other day and said "wow... how does your car still have new car smell??" I actually laughed because it's been MONTHS since I've sprayed this stuff. Amazing...
