Know before you buy
Under normal conditions, this diffuser will provide a consistent scent for up to 12 weeks. Factors like room temperature, humidity, and the number of reeds used can slightly influence the evaporation rate.
It is a balanced blend. While it features dominant neroli and jasmine floral notes, the addition of bergamot, mandarin, and crushed lime leaves gives it a bright, zesty opening that feels very refreshing.
For a subtle fragrance, start with three or four reeds. If you prefer a stronger scent throw or are placing the diffuser in a larger room, you can use all the provided reeds.
Yes, flipping the reeds once a week is a great way to boost the fragrance intensity. Just be careful to do this over a protected surface to avoid any oil drips on your furniture.
The glossy black glass vase is designed to be a decorative piece and can certainly be repurposed as a small bud vase or a pen holder once thoroughly cleaned.
Place the diffuser in a high-traffic area with good air circulation, such as a hallway or living room, to allow the fragrance to travel naturally through the space. Avoid placing it directly in front of an open window or heat source, as this will cause the oil to evaporate much faster than intended.
