    Not gonna lie, it's fascinating to learn about the backstory of the humble Little Tree air fresheners!
    I enjoyed this history video so much, Zack. Also, my fave scents would be Black Ice, New Car Scent and Royal Pine.

    New car smell, because spending a few bucks every once in a while is a lot cheaper than spending $30K+ just to get the new car smell.

    The New Car Scent makes me think of when I was 15 and drove a little sky blue Hyundai Excel. It brings back memories.

    @Shooting Cars you should do a history video of car airbags (for collisions not suspension.) and the history of car EVAP systems. You’re one of my favourite UA-camrs and I’m nearly 16 years old with 2 cars and I love watching you, subscribed!

    vanilla rama is part of the smell of a 75 dodge dart the other part is the vynal, the slight unburt gas and a tad of burning oil off the compromised valve guide seals.
    my favorite is new car smell

    Little trees were 1000 times stronger back in the 90s early 2000s. You could almost taste the strawberry scent it was so in your face.

    hehe. I personally don't care too much about air fresheners because I hate perfumes/colognes or scented products. I did, however, have a cinnamon heart hanging from the rearview for a while even after it stopped smelling of cinnamon. Don't think I want my car smelling like a wood chipper, though.

    Ahh 2011!! I knew there was a point it went from "Car Freshner" to "Little Trees" I always liked the marketing misspelling of "freshener" that I miss it on the new ones. I usually buy them only when it's a fund-raiser at the local car wash, though.
    My favorite is "vanilla" or "coconut"

  • @Rich_123
    @Rich_123 Рік тому +7

    The trees are shaped such that you open the plastic wrapper a little at a time so you don't get blasted with scent that quickly fades. Open the wrapper just enough to let the tip and hanging loop stick out. When the scent fades, pull the wrapper down to the next wider set of "branches" and the wrapper will stay in that spot. Repeat until the wrapper is completely off.
