HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR DIFFUSER

How does a reed diffuser work?

Reed diffusers are very simply to use. Remove the clear tape, and take off the lid. Immerse your rattan reeds into the liquid and allow them to soak up the oil. Once they have absorbed some of the oil, flip them to begin the release of the beautiful scented home fragrance.  

You’ll need to flip your reeds regularly, we suggest every 3 days, to keep the scent fresh and fragrant.

Diffusers don’t require a flame or heat source for them to work, making them a safe and practical way to fragrance your home.

We recommend using a coaster or matt under your reed diffuser as oil drips can cause damage to wooden, painted, varnished or plastic surfaces. It’s also a good idea to flip the reeds over a sink.

 

What do the reeds do?

The rattan reeds soak up the oil and diffuse the scent along its entire length, releasing the beautiful fragrance into the room. The reeds are porous which helps control the rate the fragrance is released.

If you want to make the fragrance more apparent in a room, increase the number of reeds you use. If you want to lessen the fragrance, remove a reed or two.

When you change the oil, make sure you change the reeds too. Not only can reeds get dusty and clogged over time but mixing old fragrance on the reeds with new diffuser oil can lead to a less than perfect scent!

 

How long do reed diffusers last?

On average, 100ml of diffuser oil should last about three months, however, it’s lifespan can be affected by things such as central heating, air conditioning, open and closed doors and dehumidifiers.

 

Where’s the best place for a reed diffuser?

Motion in the room and general movement in the air will help circulate the scent and throw the fragrance, so it’s best to place it in a high traffic area that will help move the scent around.

Avoid placing it near a door that leads outside where the fragrance will be lost. Heat from radiators can also cause the fragrance to evaporate faster, so avoid positioning it near one if you can.
