Know before you buy
The 15oz bottle of diffuser oil is designed to provide a consistent scent for up to one year, depending on the airflow and temperature of the room.
Yes, the handblown artisanal glass vessel is designed to be refilled. You can purchase refill oils to continue using the vessel indefinitely.
Nylon reeds are used to ensure a more consistent and steady diffusion of the fragrance. Unlike natural rattan, they do not clog over time, which helps maintain the scent's intensity throughout the life of the oil.
The formula is vegan, cruelty-free, and free from phthalates, parabens, and dyes. While it uses high-quality essential oil-based fragrances, we recommend placing it in a well-ventilated area away from direct contact with pets.
It is a sophisticated, woody fragrance that balances the sweet, resinous notes of fir balsam with the sharp, spicy kick of black pepper and a grounded, earthy finish of patchouli.
Because the nylon reeds provide consistent diffusion, they require very little maintenance. If you feel the scent intensity has faded, you can simply flip the reeds to refresh the fragrance throw.
