To ensure your reed diffuser remains a long-lasting source of pleasant fragrances, we've assembled some valuable tips for you:

1. Priming Your Reed Diffuser:

   - Upon opening your diffuser bottle, allow the reeds to soak inside for 5-10 minutes. This kickstarts the absorption of the fragrant liquid.

   - Afterward, flip the reeds so that the opposite ends are immersed.

2. Enhancing the Aroma:

   - When the exposed ends of the reeds dry out, repeat the flipping process to instantly rejuvenate the fragrance.

3. Extending the Lifespan:

   - Protect your diffuser from direct sunlight, heat, and drafts to maximise its longevity.

**4. Strategic Placement:**

   - Position your diffuser lower in the room; this encourages better circulation of the scent.

5. Safety First:

   - Ensure your diffuser is kept out of the reach of children and pets to prevent accidents.

6. Scent Control:

   - Adjust the strength of the fragrance by flipping the reeds more frequently for a more robust scent or less frequently for a subtler, longer-lasting aroma.

7. Personalise Your Experience:

   - If you find the fragrance too intense, simply use fewer reeds. This not only mutes the aroma but also extends the diffuser's life.

8. Sustainable Choices:

   - When your diffuser eventually depletes, consider repurposing the vessel. It can serve as a charming vase, container, or decorative piece, adding a touch of elegance to your space.

By following these straightforward guidelines, you'll ensure that your reed diffuser continues to enrich your living space with delightful scents while also making it an eco-conscious choice. Enjoy the journey of maintaining a fragrant and inviting home or workspace!
