Reed Diffuser Information

The reeds used for oil diffusing are actually made of reed, not wood, but sometimes resemble bamboo and thus referred to as bamboo reeds. True reed is the only fiber that can wick up the diffuser oil, carry it to the top surface of the reed to disperse vibrant scent into the air.

The ingredients of diffuser oils aren't the same as standard fragrance oils. Reed diffuser oil is specifically formulated with an enhancing agent for maximum wicking and optimum scent dispersion. Each scent must be tested with this enhancing agent to make sure the correct formula is made. Standard fragrance oils are too thick to diffuse properly through the reed. There are those who will try to make diffuser oil out of standard fragrance oil by using a "cutting agent" (such as D.P.G. or alcohol), but the chance of this oil resulting in the proper consistency for reed diffusing is very slim. Also, if the result of this "doctored up" oil is too thin, the oil will evaporate too quickly as well as not disperse a true scent. Another negative factor of using D.P.G. or alcohol is that this type of "cutting agent" will make the oil adhere (stick) to the reeds rather than allowing it to wick up the reeds. Also, alcohol is flammable which defeats what reed diffusing is: flameless aromatherapy.

Don't let anyone tell you it doesn't matter. It does! Oils which are diluted will not wick up the reeds. Reed diffuser oil has to be formulated to be the correct consistency. Don't think a higher price will mean a better product. These are top quality reed diffusers!

How to Use your Reed Diffuser

Pour the oil into the diffuser bottle and insert the reed sticks and arrange to your satisfaction. The reeds should be spread as wide apart as possible to expose more reed area to the air. Fragrance will be more widely dispersed if there is more reed area exposed to the air. Allow up to 48 hours for the diffuser oil to be absorbed into the reeds and disperse scent. Flip the reeds (i.e., take the reeds out of the bottle and put the exposed end into the bottle) about once a week. As the diffuser oil gets lower in the bottle, more frequent "flipping" will improve performance.

Using your reeds in another fragrance is not recommended as the reeds will have the original scent saturated into them and it isn't possible to "clean" them thoroughly. You won't get a pure scent transfer.

How long will reed diffuser oil last?

There isn't an exact answer. There are lots of factors (air flow, quality of the diffuser, number and length of reeds, temperature, etc.)

What are the safety factors concerning the use of reed diffusers?

When using a reed diffuser, be careful to place it somewhere where children and pets can't knock it over. Diffuser oil (as well as any fragrance oil) can damage many surfaces so be careful when flipping the reeds.
