CarPlan Refresh Upholstery Freshener

Overall Auto Express rating

2.0

Price: £2.99 | Type: Spray

Big 250ml pack makes this air and upholstery freshener appealing. It can be used on seats and carpets, but our test panel found the lotus flower and water melon aroma relatively faint with a chemical edge that’s a bit too sweet. There’s also no way of testing before buying as the trigger is sealed. May work on fabrics, but as an air freshener this simply can’t compete.
