Hi everyone. Would really appreciate any useful tips to solve this issue.

My car is 16 years old and had the 'old car smell'. So i had the bright idea of getting an air vent cleaning spray from a local shop. The product is Wurth Quick Fresh and it's a spray that u circulate through the vents.
I followed the instructions on the bottle exactly.

Now the car has a very strong soapy perfume-like smell. It's so strong that it makes me sneeze and gives me headaches. My passengers complain as well.
I contacted the manufacturer and they were absolutlely no help. They gave me some useless suggestions and said that i should try febreze or one of their other products that seem very hard to find.

Anyway, it's been several weeks and I've tired quite a few things. Does anyone have any 'tried and tested' tips on how to remove this sort of odor?

Thanks in advance.
