1. A combination cell phone holder and vehicle air freshener device for use with vent louvers inside an automobile, the device comprising: a clamp for gripping a cell phone;a vent attachment mechanism adapted to affix to the vent louvers; the vent attachment mechanism affixed to the clamp;one or more air-freshener strips integral to the vent attachment mechanism, whereby air leaving the vent louvers passes over the one or more air freshener strips;the louver interface arms including air freshener slots; the air freshener strips snapping into the air freshener slots. 2. The device of claim 1, further comprising an adjustment mechanism; the adjustment mechanism located between the vent attachment mechanism and the clamp;the adjustment mechanism permitting the clamp to be moved with respect to the attachment mechanism, thereby permitting varying positions of the cell phone. 3. The device of claim 2, wherein the adjustment mechanism is formed from two or more gripping arms that surround a ball: a compression nut threaded onto the gripping arms;whereby the compression nut acts to tighten or loosen the pressure of the gripping arms against the ball. 4. The device of claim 1, wherein the vent attachment mechanism includes two or more louver interface arms. 5. The device of claim 4, wherein the two or more louver interface arms include serrations to help grip the vent louvers. 6. A device that permits use of both an air freshener and holder for a mobile phone in a single automotive air vent, the device comprising: a clamp that grips the mobile phone;a mounting mechanism that connects the clamp to the single automotive air vent;an air freshener that includes scented strips; the air freshener being part of the mounting mechanism;the mounting mechanism including four louver interface arms: a first two pairs of the four louver interface arms separated by a standard gap;a second two pairs of the four louver interface arms separated by an expanded gap; the expanded gap greater than the standard gap;whereby the standard gap is used to install the device on a first group of automotive air vents, and the expanded gap is used to install the device on a second group of automotive air vents;whereby the single automotive air vent supports the clamp, and thus the mobile phone, and when air is discharged from the single automotive air vent, the air passes over the air freshener. 7. The device of claim 6, wherein the mounting mechanism is formed from: a ball connected to a flange by a stem;each of the louver interface arms includes an air freshener slot with an upper width and a lower width; the upper width less than the lower width;the scented strips shaped to snap into the air freshener slots. 8. A device that creates space for an in-car air freshener by integrating the air freshener into a phone holder for a mobile phone, the device comprising: a mounting mechanism that includes: a flange;louver interface arms interfaced to the flange;each louver interface arm including an air freshener slot;a phone clamp; the phone clamp expanding and contracting to grip the mobile phone;the phone clamp linked to the mounting mechanism;one or more air freshener strips; each of the one or more air freshener strips snapping into the air fresher slot of each louver interface arm;whereby the resulting device integrates a phone holder and air freshener strips, allowing a single air vent within an automobile to both support a mobile phone and distribute scent within an automobile.
