Why do diffuser sticks stop working?

Over time, dust, and other particles can accumulate on the sticks, hindering the fragrance’s release. To revive your reed diffuser, simply flip the reeds or replace them with new ones if they appear saturated or dirty. Reed diffusers offer continuous, flameless fragrance that sets a subtle, steady backdrop in your space. Their scent strength is lighter and more gradual than candles, but they last for weeks to months with minimal maintenance: simply flip the reeds weekly to refresh.How long do reed diffuser sticks last? Reeds should optimally be replaced every 6 months to maintain their effectiveness in diffusing scent.A 50ml bottle using 3–4 reeds can fragrance a space for 1–2 months. Larger 100ml bottles, like those from Hotel Collection, usually employ 4–6 reeds and provide scent for 3–4 months. Larger diffusers, like those with a 500ml bottle, use 12 to 15 reeds and can last anywhere from 6 to 12 months.

Do I need to replace my diffuser stick?

Essentially you shouldn’t reuse diffuser reeds. Reeds in a diffuser need to be replaced for use with a new different scent, otherwise you will not experience a new fragrance through the reeds properly. Also, over time the reeds will have become saturated and most likely clogged with dust. How Often Should You Flip the Reeds? Flipping your reed sticks every so often provides a fresh burst of fragrance and helps prevent the reeds from getting clogged. We recommend doing this around once a week or every two weeks. To do this, take the reeds out and put the dry end into the vessel.
