What customers say
Reviewers consistently highlight the MAD et LEN Lava Crystal Mini for its exceptional design and artisanal quality, viewing it as a sculptural home object rather than just a diffuser.

The overall sentiment centers on superior aesthetic appeal and enduring performance.
Know before you buy
You can adjust the intensity by varying the number of drops you apply to the stones. Start with three drops for a subtle aroma and increase up to ten drops if you prefer a more potent fragrance.
No, this is a passive diffuser. It relies on the natural porosity of the volcanic basalt and quartz crystals to absorb and slowly release the fragrance oil into your space.
While you can use various fragrance oils, we recommend using high-quality essential or perfume oils to ensure the best scent throw and to avoid damaging the integrity of the stones.
The frequency depends on your environment and personal preference. Generally, you should add more drops once the scent begins to fade, which typically occurs every few days.
The container is hand-forged iron, which is durable and designed for longevity. To keep it in pristine condition, ensure you wipe away any oil spills from the exterior of the metal immediately.
Because the stones are porous, they will retain the previous fragrance for some time. If you wish to switch scents, it is best to let the current fragrance evaporate completely or replace the stones if you want a clean slate.
