Mixing Reed Diffuser with Reed Diffuser Base (Type 1) and Essential Oil

Hello, regarding making a Reed Diffuser using Reed Diffuser Base (Type 1) with Essential Oil, you can follow these recommendations:

• Mixing Ratio: It is recommended to use approximately 70-75% Reed Diffuser Base (Type 1) and 25-30% Essential Oil or fragrance oil.
• Mixing: Mix the Essential Oil with the Reed Diffuser Base (Type 1) in the desired container. If you find that the Essential Oil separates or doesn't mix well with the base, try mixing the Essential Oil with a small amount of Ethyl Alcohol first, and then add it to the Reed Diffuser Base.
• Evaporation: The evaporation rate of a Reed Diffuser depends on several factors. The main ones are:
  • Type of Essential Oil: Each type of Essential Oil has a different evaporation rate (e.g., Top Notes evaporate quickly, Middle Notes moderately, and Base Notes slowly). Mixing various types of Essential Oils can help the scent last longer.
  • Type of Base: Reed Diffuser Base (Type 1) is designed to help with scent diffusion and control evaporation.
  • Environmental Factors: Temperature, humidity, and air circulation in the room also affect the evaporation rate.
• Other Factors Affecting Scent Diffusion:
  • Number and Type of Reed Sticks: More reed sticks lead to better scent diffusion but will also cause the Essential Oil to be used up faster. The type of reed stick also affects absorption and diffusion.
  • Room Size: Larger rooms require more fragrance and reed sticks.
  • Flipping the Reeds: Flipping the reed sticks occasionally will help improve scent diffusion.

Reed Diffuser Base (Type 1) does not contain alcohol, DPG, or PG, and is free from harmful chemicals. It can be touched on the skin (but is not a cosmetic ingredient). It is clear (colorless) and has no shelf life if evaporation is prevented.

Hope this information is helpful.
