These 80ml Reed Diffusers offer a wonderfully subtle way to fragrance your home with delicate scents. Perfect for creating a relaxing atmosphere in living rooms, bedrooms, or even smaller spaces like studies and dressing areas. The compact size of these diffusers means you won’t have an overwhelming aroma filling the room – just a gentle, consistent diffusion of your chosen fragrance.
Each diffuser comes with four rattan reeds designed to draw the fragrant oil up and disperse it into the air. These reeds will gradually absorb the oil, so we recommend replacing them every 1-3 months for optimal performance. The small bottle size is ideal for trying out new scents or for those who prefer a low-intensity fragrance experience.
The reed diffusers are typically packaged in simple, attractive bottles – often with minimalist labelling. They're incredibly easy to use: simply unwrap the reeds and place them into the bottle of fragrant oil. Then, gently break off the top end of each reed at an angle - this increases the surface area exposed to the oil and enhances diffusion. These 80ml sizes offer a fantastic value for fragrance enthusiasts.

FAQ
How often should I replace the reeds?+
You’ll typically find that the rattan reeds absorb the fragrant oil over 1-3 months. Regularly replacing them ensures a consistent and strong scent diffusion. If you notice the fragrance fading quickly, it's likely time for new reeds.
What kind of oils are best to use?+
Most reed diffusers work well with light, floral, or citrus-based essential oils. Avoid using heavily scented oils as they may overwhelm the small space and cause the reeds to clog quickly. Experimenting with different blends is a great way to personalize your fragrance experience.
How do I clean the diffuser bottle?+
To keep your diffuser bottle clean, gently wipe it with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners which could damage the glass. Ensure the bottle is completely dry before refilling with oil.
Can I use these diffusers in humid environments?+
Reed diffusers work best in average humidity levels. In very humid environments, the oils may evaporate more quickly, reducing their lifespan and scent throw. Consider using a dehumidifier if necessary.
What size room are these suitable for?+
These 80ml diffusers are most effective in smaller rooms – roughly up to 20-25 square feet. Larger spaces will require significantly more oil or multiple diffusers to achieve a noticeable fragrance effect.
Do I need to shake the bottle before using it?+
It’s recommended to gently shake the bottle before each use to ensure the fragrant oil is properly mixed with the reeds. This helps to distribute the scent evenly throughout the room.
Are these diffusers safe for pets?+
Most essential oils used in reed diffusers are generally considered safe for pets when used in moderation. However, always monitor your pet’s reaction and discontinue use if they show any signs of distress or irritation. Avoid placing the diffuser directly within their reach.
How do I adjust the scent intensity?+
You can control the scent intensity by adjusting the number of reeds you use. Adding more reeds will increase the diffusion rate, while removing some will reduce it. Experiment to find your preferred level of fragrance strength.
What is the typical lifespan of an 80ml reed diffuser?+
With regular reed replacement (every 1-3 months), you can typically expect an 80ml reed diffuser to last for approximately 2-3 months, depending on usage and room size. Monitoring the scent strength will indicate when a refill is needed.
Are these diffusers suitable for gifting?+
Absolutely! These 80ml Reed Diffusers make a thoughtful and lovely gift, especially for housewarming presents or birthdays. They’re beautifully packaged and offer a subtle way to bring fragrance into someone's home.
