REED DIFFUSER FAQ’s
When should you throw out a reed diffuser?
You should throw away your reed diffuser once the scent has significantly diminished and no longer encases your space—even after you’ve flipped the reeds. This usually happens between 3-6months after you’ve first opened it, however this will depend on the size of the diffuser and how often you’ve been flipping the reeds. If the oil inside has become clouded, evaporated or is emitting a stale smell, this is also a sign to replenish your diffuser.
Where not to put a reed diffuser?
There are a few places we wouldn’t recommend perching your reed diffuser on. Firstly, don’t have it in direct contact with a heat source or sunlight as it’ll evaporate the scent quicker. Bathrooms and kitchens with excessive moisture will also shorten your diffuser’s lifespan, as well as having them near a fan, air vent or air conditioner. We also suggest not placing them on surfaces that are painted or wooden as they may get damaged if the oil drips onto them when you’re flipping the reeds. And lastly, keep your reed diffusers away from children and animals!
How long do Jo Malone reed diffusers last?
Depending on the size of the diffuser and number of reeds, Jo Malone’s reed diffusers can last anywhere from three to four months. In a cooler, less humid area of your home, the diffuser may last longer – especially if you don’t flip your reeds as often.
And there you have it, a complete list of the top 10 best reed diffusers to elevate your space and indulge your senses. Now, why not create a little fragrance museum in your home and sprinkle a different scent in every room – your nose and guests will thank you for it.
