Reed diffusers are a stylish and low-maintenance way to keep your home smelling fresh and inviting. But are you using yours to its full potential? Whether you're new to home fragrance or a seasoned scent lover, these tips will help you maximize your reed diffuser’s performance and longevity.

1. Choose the Right Location
   Place your reed diffuser in a high-traffic area like an entryway, bathroom, or living room. Air circulation helps distribute the scent more effectively.
2. Flip the Reeds Regularly
   To refresh the fragrance, flip the reeds every 5–7 days. Be careful not to spill the oil—use a paper towel and gloves if needed.
3. Use the Right Number of Reeds
   More reeds = stronger scent. Start with 5–7 reeds and adjust based on room size and scent strength preference.
4. Keep It Away from Direct Sunlight and Heat
   Heat can cause the oil to evaporate faster. Keep your diffuser in a cool, shaded spot to extend its life.
5. Refill or Replace When Needed
   When the oil runs low or the scent fades, refill with the same fragrance or try a new one. Replace reeds every 1–2 months for best results.

Bonus Tip: Clean the Bottle Between Refills

If you're switching scents, rinse the bottle with warm soapy water and let it dry completely before adding new oil. This prevents scent mixing and keeps your diffuser fresh.
