Essential Oil Car Freshener Recipe [DIY home recipes]

November 13, 20243 min read

Eliminate the "mom car" smell and actually enjoy taking a deep breath with the car windows shut? YES! With these DIY essential oil car freshener recipes, you can have both.

As moms, we spend WAY more time in our cars than we would like to. Why not make your chariot to chauffeur kids around to every corner of the city a place that at least smells nice?

Skip the toxic chemical laden artificial fragrance air fresheners you can get at the gas station. These recipes are free of harmful toxins, easy to make and easy to use!

DIY Essential Oil Car Freshener Recipe #1: Car Spray

Essential Oil Car Spray

This is without a doubt the most effective and incredibly easy to make and use. Point and spray!

What you need:

2oz spray bottle (get it here)

1/4 C distilled water (get it here)

1/4 C rubbing alcohol (get it here)

25 drops essential oils (get some here)

Instructions:

Combine everything together in the spray bottle and shake well before using.

DIY Essential Oil Car Freshener Recipe #2: Car Oil Diffuser

What you need:

7–8 wool felt balls (get it here)
Thread
Ribbon or twine (get it here)
Essential oils of choice (get some here)

Instructions:

  1. Thread a large sewing needle with enough thread for seven to eight felt balls. Pierce through the center of each wool felt ball until you have enough to make a complete circle.

  2. Knot the thread between the connecting wool felt balls to form a circle.

  3. Cut a length of ribbon or twine long enough to fit over your rearview mirror. Thread it through the circle and tie it off at the top. Cut off any excess twine or ribbon.

  4. Hang your new DIY car oil diffuser in your car.

  5. When you want to change the environment in your car to uplift, energize, or calm you, add a drop of your essential oil of choice to each ball. Get creative and use a few different oils at one time for a unique scent.

Tip: If you don’t want to hang the homemade oil diffuser on your rearview mirror, you can also keep it in your cup holder, or hang it using one of the hanger hooks in back where passengers can enjoy it.

Which essential oils to use?

I prefer to use this combination:

This equals 25 drops to use in the car spray, if using the felt balls, add 1-2 drops of each oil to a different felt ball or mix the combination of oils together and then add 1-2 drops to each felt ball. 

These are other favorites essential oils to use in the car:

So fresh and so clean

Go ride in your fresh smelling car now and smile as you inhale freely. No more smelly socks, stale cheerios, or week old wet swimsuit smells. I mean, those things might still be in your car, but you won't smell them anymore!

Happy freshening,

What it's like to work with Leah

Kim Morrow

I am so much more conscious of what I am putting into my body and I actually feel really empowered and good about myself by saying no to the foods that are not good for me. At Dinner the other night, my husband and kids kept asking me to try one french fry or one bite of their dessert, and I just smiled and said 'no thank you'.

Marisa Lonic

With 20+ post partum pounds, I was looking for a program to help me. I was blown away working with Leah. I lost 9 pounds, felt less tired and formed healthy habits that are now j7st part of my new normal.

Jonelle Fernandes

My whole adult life I have struggled with eating healthy, never really feeling satisfied and giving in to very unhealthy choices. Leah is a phenomenal wealth of knowledge and support when it comes to nutrition. It is because of her programs that I am FINALLY eating healthy on a regular basis! I feel the best I’ve ever felt, I have more energy, better sleep, less inflammation, better skin, and a better mood! Not to mention, I lost 11 pounds and the weight is continuing to come off!

Meet Kathy

She conquered 20+ years of debilitating joint pain after completing the 4-Week Total Body Reset Challenge!
