Car manufacturer Dacia creates a collection of “new car smells”
If you don’t like the budget brand Dacia, here’s the fragrant antidote.
Working with award-winning perfumer 4160 Tuesdays, the company has created a collection of “new car scents” inspired by Britain’s favorite road trips, according to a survey of 2,000 motorists.

The top spots went to Scotland’s North Coast 500 (68 percent); The Coastal Way, Wales (50 percent), Dorset’s Jurassic Coast (40 percent); Cheddar Gorge, Somerset (38 percent) and Causeway Coastal Route, Northern Ireland (37 percent).
Referencing the North Coast 500, Scent-sational Highlands perfume combines earth and sea with pine and wild raspberries.

The Welsh “Coastal Whiff” combines the aroma of the coast with daffodils, brine and so on.
