Advantages: Can be left unattended

Disadvantages: None

Yankee candles Baby Powder fragrance is one of my favourite smells so I was very interested to try out the fragrance in the new reed diffuser variety. I had never used reeds before and wasn't sure of what was involved but decided to order them from Scented Candle Shop.com where they were advertised at the cheapest price I could find of £13.59 for the small (50ml) and £16.99 for the large(200ml). I decided to opt for the small version and, on placing my order, I was delighted to find it was free delivery.

When the package arrived I couldn't wait to try them out. Inside was a slim glass bottle containing the fragranced oil with a lift off top and a screw off top. You remove the lift off top and then take off the screw top. Next put back the lift off top and this is where the reeds go into It was very simple to insert the reeds and it was then ready to go. I placed the diffuser in my bathroom and sure enough, after about a half an hour, the lovely baby powder fragrance began to gently waft about the room. It was by no means strong just a very subtle absolutely delightful smell exactly the same as the Baby Powder candle which I love so much. The oil also has the advantage of being alcohol free so is a more true to life smell.
The advantage of a reed diffuser over candles is you can leave it unattended which you obviously can't with a lighted candle. It is always gently releasing the fragrance into the air through the reeds so once you have set it up there is very little to do afterwards. You are advised to invert the reeds every now and then to refresh the fragrance but I only did that once as I found they soaked up the oil very slowly and it wasn't really necessary. The diffuser lasted for around 4 months which I think was pretty good. The bottle can be reused with other fragranced oils although I haven't been able to find any Yankee candles refills up to now. This is a shame as they are my favourite of all the candlemakers. Hopefully they will bring out refills in the future.

So in conclusion I would recommend reed diffusers as they are a safe way to fragrance your home without the risk of split wax or fire. They are an attractive addition to your decor and will go into any room without taking up too much valuable space.

Thank you for reading
