Believe it or not the reeds for your reed diffuser are one of the most important parts of the product. The reeds are the workhorse of the reed diffuser and as such like anything you need to maintain/replace them on a regular basis. The reeds absorb the scent which gives off the subtle scent and diffuses into your room. If you can no longer smell the scent in the bottle it will be because the reeds have started to fail and this can be for a number of reasons. If you find you can no longer smell the scent, it is common for customers to turn the reeds over which will give you another few weeks of scent.

It is for these reasons why we recommend our customers buy a new set of reeds when it is time for a refill.Reeds can get clogged up with scent, dust and other particles in the air and just like the filters in your hoover will not soak up any more scent. Unfortunately you can’t clean the reeds which means every few months you need to replace them. Another reason why it is important to replace the reeds is you may want to change the scent and have a different one. We would recommend you replace your reeds. The reason for this is because your reeds are already soaked in the previous scent and because you can’t wash them you need to replace them. Imagine spraying a piece of material for months with the same perfume, now you want to change the scent but you don’t wash the material, it is very likely you will not smell your new scent as the piece of material has already been soaked for months with the old scent.
