Cheap Option for Air Balance (Fragrance)

https://www.etsy.com/listing/7171638...f=yr_purchases

No relation to the seller. I bought 3 of the small sizes ($8 each) last week. Each $8 bottle is enough to fill the canister twice. So for $24 you essential get 6 jars of fragrance. Each Benz one is around $80-100.

They are much stronger than the authentic MB oils. With the MB oils I often couldn't tell if they were working and wondered if the fragrance tube was disconnected (that was on setting "3"). With the new oil set on setting "1" it is VERY strong - you can smell it when it is pushed through the dash every 8-9 minutes.

At $8, you don't have much to lose. I only wish I'd bought more scents.

I did this with some stuff I got on Amazon, way better scent and much more prominent smell.
I did clean my fragrance container with alcohol to get any old fragrance out.
The MB stuff is super expensive and I am not into the scents they offer much.

If you want to sample some fragrance options, stop by a bath and body works. Check out their "wall flowers" section of the plug in things. To open them grab a pair of pliers and yank the top plastic plug. Pour some of it into your cleaned out fragrance container and you are good to go.

Can you share what you purchased and recommend the scent you tried and seemed to be the best?
