Yankee Candle Car Jar Vanilla Lime By Jeanette Dusci on Sep 02, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I recently noticed that my minivan had a bit of a funky smell. With three kids and a dog, I guess it's bound to happen. I've tried various car air fresheners in the past, but my daughter has always found the smell too overpowing. Since she suffers from allergies and asthma, I always end up tossing them in the trash, rather than chance setting her allergies off. I saw that Yankee Candle had these available in one of my favorite scents-vanilla lime. I decided to give it a try. The freshener looks just like a jar candle and you simply hang it on your rear view mirror with the attached elastic band. I loved the scent. It was fresh smelling without being cloying. The real test would be my daughter. I picked her up from school and she got in the van and said "Mmmm, what's that smell?" There you have it... a winner!
