how to remove stinky "perfume" a mechanic intoxicated my car with at the inspection
After the inspection of two days ago, a smart... mechanic sprayed some stinky "perfume" in my car what made my life a hell in driving from PA to NY. The smell doesn't dissipate with windows just open. Of course when I called them they denied that they did it. I told them that just denying does not help me but HOW TO GET RID OF THIS POISONOUS SMELL? I don't even know where it comes from: chairs, AC...? Do you have any idea how to get rid of it, please?
Buy a small spray bottle of Imozium spray. I think that’s the name. It deoderizes smelly cars and ac vents. Very clean and fresh smell. Just turn the heat or ac on and spray it into where the cars vents are that pull the air into the system.
Buy some Turtle Wax Odor-X and spray it everywhere on interior, under seats, in vents, headliner and on the pollen filter. It is a scientifically developed formula that encapsulates odors at the molecular level and destroys them. Really amazing stuff.

Thank you so much. For now I am really very sick in bed (I guess that the guy was sick himself with some kind of flu that I got from him touching the steering wheel and other car parts inside car) I hardly can breath, but when I get well I am going to go and buy these. Thank you so very much.
Other thing that works very well for removing odours is ozone. That's what professional detailers use if they need to clean a car that has been smoked in. Put an ozone generator in the car, close the doors and leave it for a few hours. I have used the ozone generator that a friend had for his hot tub and that seemed to work well, but took longer.
Odor-X is the newest molecular level cleaner/deodorizer ever developed. They also make an atomizer (bomb type) if it's needed but, the spray works in cars. I used it in mine because it was a smoker car and after treatment, never has had an odor even after sitting in 100° + summers here.
I've used it on other things and areas that nothing else worked on. Vomit, urine, excrement, rotted food = all after cleaning of course.
Utah, USA. We have about a month of 100° + heat here in the summer. It's a high desert here. Hard on leather interiors, that's why I clean and condition them every Spring and use window blinds.
