1. Charabanc

Charabanc is a British company which prides itself on invoking the halcyon days of driving with its luxury car fragrances.

These scents are created to mimic the scents of some of the world’s most famous driving routes, don’t expect an artificial apples or lemon scent. 

The plains of Castellucio in Italy, for instance, are depicted with notes of lavender, sage, Calabrian bergamot, and leather, while Colorado’s Plateau’s Monument Valley is referenced via amber, cypress oil, and jasmine.

2. Diptyque

Made in France, Diptyque has released a line of car diffusers which feature some of their most famous scents — including Figuier and Ambre — so you’ll never have to assault your nose with pine trees and cheap alternatives.

As with any Diptyque product, these accessories get the signature Art Nouveau treatment, with an adjustable window to set the intensity of the scent.

3. Smul

Smul is a Canadian company making a lot of noise in North America. We specialize in luxury car air fresheners, with lasting scents that will impress both you and your passengers. 

Our Black Diffuser vent clip is made with airplane grade aluminum and designed to complement any luxury car interior. We're a big level up from the cheap plastic car vent units found at your local gas station and drug store.

Our scents are formulated with a variety of essential oil blends that will put you at ease. We don't use chemical fragrances that will leave you with a migraine. 

Our Cologne scent is by far the most popular, made with a blend of sicilian citrus, amber wood, sandalwood and bergamot. We'll bring back that nostalgic feeling of when you first went behind the wheel and had the open road in front of you.

4. Car Cologne

UK's leading brand Car Cologne is making a lot of noise all over Europe. They sell a wide range of luxury car fresheners inspired by high-end fragrances. Whether you’re looking for a hanging card freshener, car mist spray or oil diffuser, they have it all.

Anik Zubair their founder has a strong passion for both the automotive and fragrance industries, this passion led him to quit his job and start Car Cologne in 2018.

We really like their Car Mist Diffuser, they have 20+ different fragrance oils to choose from that are based on designer colognes and perfumes. Nothing beats long-lasting and luxurious.

5. Clemt

With its sleek silver metal facade, Clemt’s Diffuser Pebble looks not a single bit out of place within any luxury sports car, all while subtly keeping it fresh.

Each diffuser is carefully precision milled, and then hand-finished to create a unique surface treatment. The reusable accessory can then be filled with your choice of fragrance, making it a sustainable option that goes hand in hand with your luxury EV.

A bit on the pricier side but makes a great gift idea for car lovers, professional drivers and automotive enthusiasts.
