Use Own Cologne

I’ve used various fragrances over 2 years. I just unscrew and spray away. I have noticed that the MB fragrances are a bit thicker. IMO they last longer than personal colognes

My experience exactly.....personal colognes do not last nearly as long as the MB fragrances. Oh well, I love the personal scent I have in my car, so I'll just continue to refill when needed.

They may last longer, but a much larger bottle of a high end fragrance is about 8-10X cheaper and more choice.

Well
I have a 2017 C63 with Air Balance. The the factory supplied sent container ran out a couple of weeks ago.
I called the dealer for a replacement. $ 130, no refills available, I was stunned !!!!
They should put the in every car just to sell the replacements. Of course checked, Amazon, $99.
Still could not believe it. So for 25 cents I went to CVS bought a hypodermic nettle, drilled a hole though the top down to the glass reservoir in the now worthless MB contained and injected Faberge air freshener about 1/2 way full as a test. . Put a small piece of electrical tape over the hole and reinstalled it.
Works perfect.
The good news is, I can suck the Faberge out an inject what ever sent I like.
Keep you posted as to next fragrance.
Any Suggestions ?

You do realize that you can just unscrew the top.

^^^^^Exactly, no need for needles. Cut through the clear plastic seal, and give it a good twist (lefty loosy, righty tighty). May be difficult the first time, but after that, just twist open to refill, and twist shut. I usually line up the plastic seal when I twist it shut so I don't over tighten the cap.

Why are we using this public board as a message board to the fragrance seller? He's offering a useful product but his original post said to send a PM, so just send a PM and we don't need to hear about it here...

And what is your opinion?

I went ahead and ordered the remaining fragrances (Nightlife, Downtown, and Sports) so I'll let you guys know how those are.

When My canister ran out and I found out that no refills were available without buying a new canister, I started looking for options. I learned through this forum that you can break the seal on your canister and put in whatever fragrance you like. So I did, filled it up with Fabreze air freshener.
Works great, plus this product is designed to remove odors , not mask them.

For those that want that “new car smell” go on Amazon and type in “new car smell.” There are numerous products. Do they work? Do not know....

When you buy the new S560; does it come with free fragrance to start with or do I need to buy it.
