Disadvantages Smell, not long lasting,

Review summary
Great looking air freshner, great idea with the window suction cups, but it doesn't last long and smells terrible like chemical and plastics with apple.

When I purchased this car air freshener I had a green car and did not like the fresheners that hang from mirrors because they can obstruct your view when driving, and also the price was cheap at around £2.
You will need to cut the packaging open as its sealed around the edges. The Gecko is around 6cm long and as 2 window suckers on the base which with a quick lick will stick to any window in your car or if you like you home.

The plus side of having window suckers is that you no longer need to have air fresheners of the rear view mirror, which can cause obstructions, which believe it or not can get you an MOT minor, which I have had in the past with my dangly mirror fresheners.

It is made from a hard plastic material and is supposed to smell like apple but in my opinion its more like a plastic and chemical smell with a hint of apple. Also it the smell lasted around 5 days which is very poor.

So overall I think its great idea it looks very good but the smell needs improving before I would be again so overall I would not recommend this to my friends unless you like the smell of apple and chemicals.
