My brother’s first reaction on seeing the Ambi Pur Mini Vent Clip in the car was : ‘Papa would take it off right away.’
It got me squirming a bit, for he was right. Father has an aversion for unnecessary accessories and add-ons around the car console and dashboard, and is not particularly fond of any contraption blocking the AC vent.
‘But this one looks good bhai. Small and easy to install. I got it as a review sample from IndiBlogger.’ I insisted, trying to keep the creeping disappointment at bay. ‘Let’s see how it smells, and if it’s not good enough, we will take it off! Simple!’ I insisted.
An indifferent shrug from Brother followed and we were off, heading out of the city to receive Father from the airport. He was returning home after a hectic week-long business trip across the country and probably that was the reason Brother did not want to irk him with something as trivial as a car air freshener. Well since the airport was a good 30 kms away, we had ample time to take in the first feel of mini vent clip and decide for ourselves whether it had the potential to survive Father’s scrutinizing prowess. Given bhai’s earlier indifferent reaction towards the car freshener, I took the initiative of turning the AC on and adjusting the fragrance level of the vent clip.
Within minutes, the car was smelling all fruity and fresh! The Light Citrus fragrance I had opted for was working it’s magic. Brother looked all amused and I had a huge smile on my face! The Ambi Pur Mini Vent Clip had passed the MINI scrutiny of us brother-sister duo!
With the unfounded apprehension gone, brother gave the vent a closer look – ‘So the fragrance level can be adjusted eh?’ and with this question he tried the adjusting hook behind the clip. With a little increase in the level, the fruity fragrance became stronger. After having tested both the high and low level variations of the clip, he set it back to the normal level. ‘Yes, and the details on the pack say this will last up to 30 days,’ I added.
‘Neat, I must say. And takes very little room too. Good.’ His point blank review was all positive and to the point. Now we all waited to see what Father had to say about the fresh and fruity aroma that filled the car.
The airport , as always, was abuzz with all kind of activities. The excitement at Arrivals, the last minute luggage weight paranoia at Departures, the farewells and the welcomes, the coming and going of taxis…in the humid heat, the frenzy of activity looked so overwhelming that we were soon longing to get back into the haven that our car had become. It was good half an hour of waiting when Father finally walked out, looking all haggard and spent. The trip had indeed been hectic and almost non-stop travel had taken its toll.
In no time, Brother sorted the luggage in the boot and we were all settled into the car – a huge respite from the heat, humidity and chaos outside. Father’s tired expressions at the Arrivals had all but made us forget about the Ambi Pur car vent clip, and now as he eased into the back seat, he seemed for comfortable and relaxed. Normal chit-chat started flowing and soon we were on with our regular banter, in between shuffling the radio stations when suddenly Father asked, ‘Car’s smelling good. Did you get it serviced?’
How happy that question made me! Needless to say, that question was an answer in itself! ‘Papa, check this cute mini vent clip from Ambi Pur! It’s the eau-de-toilette for the car, and the ‘good smell’ is coming from here! ‘
‘Ah, that’s pretty compact. And I was wondering why the car’s smelling so different and nice. Also quite different from those over-powering car perfume we used to spray earlier. This must have come out new in the market?’ Now Father was curious too. And, of course, impressed.
With Ambi Pur passing the scrutiny test with flying colours, the conversation continued…about where the Ambi Pur vent clip came from, about how my blogging was going on, and all other happy topics under the sun. Like the drive from home to airport, the drive from airport to home was too turning out to be fresh and happy!
