What customers say
Customers consistently praise the Alabastre Retour d'Egypte for its exquisite design and the sophisticated, long lasting aroma it imparts to living spaces. Many appreciate the unique aesthetic appeal of the alabaster stone itself, viewing it as a beautiful decorative object that subtly diffuses a captivating fragrance.

Its ability to maintain a consistent, elegant scent over time is a frequently highlighted positive, contributing to a sense of refined ambiance.
Know before you buy
The Alabastre uses passive cold diffusion. You simply apply a few drops of the included perfume concentrate onto the porous alabaster stone, which then naturally absorbs and gradually releases the fragrance into the surrounding air.
To refresh the fragrance, add a few drops of the concentrate to the stone whenever you notice the scent fading. Because the stone is porous, it will hold the oil and continue to diffuse it effectively over time.
While the set comes with a specific perfume concentrate, you can use other high-quality essential oils or perfume concentrates. Ensure the oils are pure and not overly diluted to maintain the best diffusion results.
The Alabastre is designed for small to medium-sized spaces, such as bathrooms, bedrooms, or walk-in closets. It is not intended to scent large, open-concept living areas, as the passive diffusion process is subtle and localized.
The stone is designed to hold onto the fragrance profile it has absorbed. If you wish to switch scents, it is best to allow the current fragrance to dissipate completely or use a separate stone, as the porous material will retain traces of previous oils.
The porcelain box serves as both a beautiful display piece and a protective vessel. Keeping the lid closed when not in use helps preserve the fragrance concentrate on the stone and prevents dust from settling on the surface.
