I'd go with six different. With three machines, I have cherry in the two farthest apart and seven other fragrances in the rest.

I can tell you what doesn't work at all: Leather
I like the smell but I must be the only one on this planet apart from the manufacturer. I just emptied the first bottle after 6 years!

I also tried leather, and three months later the jug had dropped maybe 1/4". Musk was about as bad.
I was wrong about the Black Ice. I found my pad that I was tracking all the fragrances, and this is the list by most popular and how long each gallon lasts.
New Car 7 months
Cherry 8 months (Each, with it in two machines)
Strawberry 11 months
Jasmine 11 months
Cinnamon 12 months
Pina Colada 14 months
Vanilla 17 months
Black Ice 22 months
I had Febreze (labeled as deodorizer) in the spot where Black Ice is now - it did really well for a long time, but people quit using it. I think I went through more testing it to make sure it was working than people were using.
I ran out of jasmine and put baby powder in its place, and it's doing better than the jasmine.

I would start with 6 to see what is most popular in you area. (I think popularity varies with demographics.) Over time you may wish to have the most popular in both, eliminating the least popular. Initialy I tried to have them all different with as many as perhaps 9 different ones. Over time I have gone down to 5, eliminating the least popular and having multiples of the most popular. Less of an inventory headache.

Black Ice is my most popular in little trees, Wild Cherry the most in Fragrance, but that might be because I don't offer Black Ice there. Where can I find Black Ice in liquid form?

Any idea where I can find some Black Ice fragrance for a combo vac? Thanks.

Thanks. Whats the advantage/reason between using either the oil or water based fragrances?
KR sells equivalent under the name of Night Frost (it used to be blackened ice). We use oil base. It cost little more but it "suppose" to last longer and doesnt freeze with Texas cold tempurature.
personally i think it is regional preference. I use to have 6 different kinds (cherry, vanilla, new car, fresh scent,lemon, pina colada), but now we narrow it down to Cherry, pina colada and night frost(blackice). Night frost and cherry are top sellers so i keep those in both machines. pina colada in one machine and strawberry in the other.
Night frost (black ice) from KR smell better than our local distributor.
