Using a reed diffuser the right way — for long-lasting room fragrance
A reed diffuser is the flame-free way to scent a room continuously. Here is how to get the most out of it.
How a reed diffuser works
The rattan reeds draw up the fragrance oil and release it continuously into the air — entirely without heat or flame.
Tips for more scent
- Turn the reeds every few days to refresh the intensity.
- More reeds = stronger scent, fewer reeds = more subtle.
- Keep away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
How long does a diffuser last?
A 100 ml AKSEL diffuser lasts about 8–10 weeks, depending on room size and the number of reeds.
