Your new car scent is ready in about ten seconds. Here's exactly how to do it right.
Step by step
- Take out the inner plug. It keeps the oil sealed during shipping. Pull it out and throw it away.
- Screw the wood cap on tight. A loose cap is the number one cause of drips.
- Tilt for 3 seconds. Turn the bottle upside down so the oil soaks into the wood. That's where the scent comes from.
- Hang it from your mirror. Make sure it swings freely and doesn't touch anything.
Want it stronger?
Tilt it again. Every tilt soaks the wood and gives you a fresh burst. Want it lighter? Tilt less often. You're in control.
Mistakes to avoid
- Don't over-tilt. Once every day or two is plenty for most people. Too much and it runs out faster.
- Don't let it rest on the dash. Fragrance oil can damage dashboard and plastic surfaces.
- Don't hang it where it blocks your view. Keep the cord short if you need to.
- Wipe spills right away with a dry cloth.
How long will it last?
It depends on heat and how often you tilt. Read our guide: How long does a hanging car diffuser last?
