The Ultimate Care Guide: How to Use, Clean and Close Your Sense Aroma Diffuser

A well-looked-after diffuser is essential for creating an inviting and welcoming atmosphere in your home.

Whether it’s your first time using a high-quality aroma diffuser or you’re a seasoned pro, knowing how to use, clean and store your Senses diffuser will make sure you get the most out of it.

So, in this guide, we’ll walk you through how to use Sense aroma diffusers, as well as how to clean them and store them.

How to Use Your Sense Aroma Diffuser

A Senses aroma diffuser will transform your space with calming scents that create a better-smelling home.

Here’s how to make the most of your Sense diffuser:

Setup:

Your Senses aroma diffuser should be put on a stable surface away from excess sunlight, heat and draughts. You should make sure there is enough air circulation around the diffuser (so don’t tuck it away into a tight nook).

Make sure you don’t put the diffuser somewhere where it’s likely to be knocked over, you don’t want oil spillages! Also, make sure you choose the right size for your space. An extra-large diffuser will be perfect in big rooms but it can overpower smaller ones, so pick carefully.

Adding the Reeds:

Insert the reeds into the bottle. The reeds will absorb the fragrance oil and release it gradually into the air. For a stronger scent, use more reeds or flip them regularly to get a fresh burst of scent.

Filling the Bottle:

If your diffuser needs a refill, make sure you use a high-quality fragrance oil suitable for your sense aroma diffuser. Pour the oil into the diffuser bottle, being careful not to overfill. Leave some space at the top to avoid the oil spilling over as you add the reeds back in.

Adjusting Fragrance Intensity:

To change the intensity of the fragrance, add or remove reeds. More reeds mean a stronger smell, and fewer reeds mean a more subtle scent. Flipping the reeds regularly will also give you a little boost.

How to Clean Your Sense Aroma Diffuser

Senses diffusers are relatively low maintenance, but some light cleaning will ensure they stay looking and smell their best.

Emptying the Bottle:

If you’re adding in more fragrance, carefully remove the reeds and pour out any leftover fragrance oil from the bottle. If you’re switching scents, properly clean the bottle to avoid mixing fragrances.

Cleaning the Bottle:

To make sure you’ve got all the oil out, wash the bottle with warm, soapy water to remove any residue of the old fragrance oil. You can use a mild dish soap for this.

For stubborn residue or to clean your diffuser more thoroughly, mix equal parts of water and white vinegar. Pour this solution into the bottle, leave it to soak for a while, and then rinse thoroughly with clean water. White vinegar can break down oil residues.

Drying the Bottle:

Allow the bottle to air dry completely before refilling it with a new fragrance oil. Make sure it is completely dry to avoid any water mixing with the oil, as this might weaken the scent.

Cleaning the Reeds:

Generally, the reeds don’t need cleaning. But if they have become over-saturated, or if you’re changing scents, you should think about replacing them with new ones. The reeds can become clogged with dust, which is hard to remove and can also weaken the scent.

How to Store Your Sense Aroma Diffuser

If you’re packing your Senses diffuser away for a while, here’s how to store them.

Make Sure the Bottle is Dry:

Before storing, make sure the diffuser bottle is completely dry. Any dampness could cause mould, which is not pleasant!

Store Properly:

Place your sense aroma diffuser in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Storing it in its original box or covering it with a soft cloth can protect it from dust and damage.

Avoid Long-Term Storage with Oil:

If you are not using the diffuser for an extended period, empty the bottle and clean it properly before storing it. Any oil left in the diffuser will deteriorate over time, so it won’t smell as great the next time you go to use it.

Reassembling the Diffuser:

When it comes to using your Senses diffuser again, give it a quick wipe to remove any dust that’s built up. You can then add your fragrance oil and reeds, and your diffuser is ready to go.

Additional Tips for Using and Caring for Your Diffuser

Use Quality Fragrance Oils:

High-quality oils will give you the best results. Not only will they smell better, but they’ll also last longer too. The Senses brand offers high-end oils with smells like alang alang, oud and amber.

Monitor Fragrance Intensity:

If you notice a drop in fragrance, it could be that you need to refresh the oil, change the reeds, or try a new scent. As you get used to smells, you might experience ‘nose blindness’, this is when your nose adapts to the smell and no longer notices it. If you think you’re experiencing nose blindness, try using a new scent; this will wake up your sense of smell again.

Follow the Manufacturer’s Instructions:

Always refer to the user manual specific to your model for detailed instructions and safety information. Each sense aroma diffuser may have unique features or requirements that are important for proper use and maintenance.
