Flameless Fragrance: Our Favorite Reed Diffusers and Fragrance Oils

Thanks to summer heat waves, the last thing you may be thinking about is cozying up and lighting a candle... Unless you are wishing for cooler times to come!

Summer is a great time to explore flameless fragrance options in your home. With a reed diffuser, you have the freedom to leave the room without losing fragrant scents unlike traditional scented candles that need to be monitored. 

Aromatic diffusers and other fragrance oil dispensers are great gift options for soon-to-be college students that aren't allowed to have open flames in their dorms or apartments. With slow releasing diffuser reeds, it's easy to set up the diffuser in your space and flip the reeds when you need a scent refresh. 

Explore Paddywax's selection of scent diffusers that not only provide your space with refreshing fragrances but also complement your home décor display. All our vessels are made with repurposing in mind. Once you run out of oil, simply wash out your cute diffuser and reuse it as a pencil holder, bulb planter, or as a shelf decoration. The possibilities are endless!

The Rosemary Sea Salt fragrance is perfect for communal spaces with its fresh citrus and sea salt top notes alongside the long-lasting cedar base notes. This Santorini-inspired scent is sure to brighten up your space for weeks to come - simply flip the reeds to refresh the scent when you need an extra boost.
