What trick to perfume your car naturally and at a lower cost?

The smell of tobacco, food or even pets… The interior of your car can emit odors that are anything but pleasant. Here’s a trick that could perfume your car for a long time.

  • The clothespin trick to perfume your car

In the autumn-winter season, it is common   to drive with the windows closed and   turn on the heating to be able to withstand the low temperatures that penetrate the interior of the vehicle. However, by solving the problem of cold, we expose ourselves to an unbearable problem:   bad smells  .

In fact, there are many reasons why your car smells bad. And if that’s the case for you, you’ve probably tried everything to hide them, but it seems the smell only gets worse.

Luckily, there’s an essential, simple, and most importantly, inexpensive trick that will stop you from holding your nose every time you get into your car.

All you need is  a wooden clothespin or two   and a   bottle of essential oil of your choice  . It’s best to opt for aromas that are both strong and calming, like   cinnamon, citrus   , or   lavender  . You can also use any other essential oil, just be sure to choose a scent that appeals to you (your favorite scent will work even if you don’t have an essential oil).

Add a few drops of essential oil to the wooden clothespins or spray them with your favorite perfume and then securely clip them into your car’s air vents. When the heater is turned on, the   ventilation system responsible for heat distribution spreads a pleasant scent into the passenger compartment of the car thanks to the clothespin.
