Review on Chemical Guys AIR_224_16 Freshener Eliminator by Chris Santos

Revainrating 1 out of 5

it is sad but true. the best air fresheners

So let's move on to the pluses. Smells GREAT, nice clean scent. It's not piney or fruity but more of a nice clean scent, not too masculine but not too feminine either. Think of it like a CK1 for your car. To be honest it doesn't remind me at all of Little Tree's BLACK ICE, which I think is meant to emulate. In terms of odor elimination it seems to be a decent odor eliminator but to be honest I don't have anything in my car that would cause a lot of odors such as: B. spilled food from pets or children. although in this area it is quite sufficient. HOWEVER, when it comes to durability, it just does NOT last, and by that I mean it lasts a day or so at best. After reading reviews before buying, I sprayed a decent amount on my upholstery and even dipped a paper towel in the stuff and put it in the back of my SUV (thought it might work as a slow-release air freshener). Unfortunately, it seems like I have to recolor this CG variant every few days. Now I spray all the seat upholstery and headliner to keep the scent as concentrated as possible. I have an FJ Cruiser so there are no carpets in the car. I have to say I ordered it knowing that some were complaining that it didn't last long, but I was hoping that they had unrealistic expectations and that most other buyers who spoke about its durability were more specific . I was wrong, this CG Black Frost smells great and seems to eliminate odors quite well, but be aware that if you buy this expect to spray your interior every other day if you're expecting it to smell. I'm so mad at myself I'm willing to buy some Little Trees BLACK ICE air freshener or a small bottle of cheap Walmart body spray and just spray my car to see how long it lasts because every time I... spray my whole salon. A day is a time commitment I just don't want to make.

Pros
  • Lasts 5 times longer than traditional car air fresheners; the smell of frost lasts for weeks
Cons
  • There are problems
