Natural Air... or Rotten Eggs?

I see quite a few people's photos of their cars and they have those BMW Natural Air clips on their vents and I was wondering.... are they any good? Or would I just be better off (my wallet will thank me) getting a regular Glade car freshener? Any fragrances that are really good (understanding this is very subjective and personal) and which one(s) to avoid? Without buying each pack, it's kind of hard to know what they even smell like. Do they last a long time?

This stems back decades for me....nothing smells like it...or better IMO. I get about a month out of a cartridge.

I like them and use them in my other vehicles too. Much better smelling than glade, etc. How much you get out of the cartridge depends on how often you remember to close/open the flap...I wish that was automatic
I do get 2-3 months, but mostly 2 months. Smell is subjective, but I don't like strong overpowering smells. My favorites are harmonizing flower and energizing tonic.

Because of allergies, I have to be really careful on scents/fragrances. If it's too strong/perfumy then I get breathing problems, sneezing, etc. It has to be very light, just barely noticeable. Any of the ones that they offer fit that description? Maybe I should just stick to the smell of the leather and be happy?

I used BMW Sparkling raindrops flavor, they have very light scent and you only smell them when blower is turned on.
