    Thats what a friend of mine told me....I never checked to see if he was correct. That being said, My Wife gets these paper sacks filled with scents. I use the "Fresh Cotton" scent, and it seems to work well.

    Air Wick new car smell spray. Put A/C on high and turn off recirculate, then one spray at the toe of the passenger floorboard towards the fan so it goes through the vents. Worked great for getting rid of unwanted smells and smelled like a new car again.
