MANIPURA Reed Diffuser

Our exclusive MANIPURA Reed Diffuser offers a flame-free way to enjoy beautifully balanced home fragrance, gently diffused through the air without heat or combustion. Hand-crafted in our Lancashire home, our eco-friendly fragrance is blended with seven carefully selected essential oils and a vegan crystal Augeo base, we chose this for its gentle scent performance to ‘Lift. Clarify. Balance.’ from the first pour to the final drop.

Please Note:..The fragrance, inspired by the Solar Plexus Chakra, is bright yet grounding, designed to softly scent your space without overwhelming it.

Fresh notes of white grapefruit, lemon and lime bring an immediate feeling of clarity and freshness, softened by bergamot for a smooth, refined citrus lift. Spearmint introduces a cool, green brightness with a modern edge, while lemon myrtle adds a crisp herbal note that keeps the fragrance feeling vibrant and clean.

As the scent settles, patchouli forms a warm, earthy foundation, anchoring the citrus notes and allowing the fragrance to diffuse slowly and evenly, creating a calm, balanced ambience that lingers beautifully in the background.

Carefully balanced for reed diffusion, this signature fragrance is ideal for small rooms in the home, or open-plan living spaces were you waft by it!  Delivering a clean, uplifting atmosphere with even depth and freshness.

Each bottle is made from recycled and recyclable glass, available in amber or clear. If you love an apothecary-inspired aesthetic, this piece is designed for you.

PACKAGING & SUSTAINABILITY:

Each reed diffuser is thoughtfully packaged in a kraft cardboard tube, offering both protection and a refined, apothecary-inspired presentation. The diffuser is supplied with 10 high-quality fibre reeds, allowing you to adjust scent strength to suit your space.

We choose recyclable and compostable packaging wherever possible, keeping our environmental impact to a minimum. The kraft tubes and paper components can be recycled or composted according to local facilities, while the glass diffuser bottle is fully recyclable and designed to be reused or refilled.

Our packaging reflects our commitment to considered design — simple, functional and mindful — without unnecessary plastics or excess materials.

 


DIRECTIONS FOR USE:

Remove the stopper from the bottle top & carefully place the reeds inside. 
Leave the reeds for 24 hours to give the reeds time to absorb the oil. Flip the reeds for a fresh boost whenever you need to refresh the diffusion. 

WHERE DO REED DIFFUSERS WORK BEST?

Reed diffusers work best in open, gently ventilated spaces where air can move naturally around the reeds. Placement makes a huge difference to both scent throw and longevity.

Entrance halls & hallways

One of the best locations.

  • Natural air movement helps carry the fragrance
  • Creates a welcoming first impression
  • Scent disperses through adjoining rooms

✔ Ideal for both homes and salons

 

Living rooms & open-plan spaces

  • Works beautifully in shared, larger areas
  • Steady diffusion without overpowering
  • Especially effective in open-plan layouts

✔ Position away from windows or radiators

 

Reception areas (salons, studios, clinics)

  • Excellent for background fragrance
  • Creates a calm, professional atmosphere
  • Less intrusive than sprays or burners

✔ Place behind reception desks or on side furniture

 

Bathrooms & cloakrooms

  • Constant temperature helps diffusion
  • Keeps the space feeling fresh

✔ Use fewer reeds in smaller rooms

 

Bedrooms

  • Soft, continuous scent without heat or flame
  • Best for gentle background fragrance

✔ Use a smaller bottle or fewer reeds

 

WHERE WILL MY REED DIFFUSER NOT WORK?

🚫 Enclosed or stagnant spaces

  • Small cupboards
  • Windowless rooms with no airflow

🚫 Direct heat or sunlight

  • Radiators
  • Windowsills in full sun
  • Near appliances

These cause the oil to evaporate too quickly and reduce lifespan.

 

Placement Tips for Best Results:

  • Place at waist to chest height
  • Keep away from direct drafts, but allow gentle airflow
  • Start with fewer reeds and increase gradually
  • Flip reeds occasionally (weekly is ideal)

 

Room Size Guide:

  • Small rooms (bathrooms, bedrooms): 4–6 reeds
  • Medium rooms (living rooms): 6–8 reeds
  • Large or open-plan spaces: 8–10 reeds

 As this is a gentle, subtle fragrance we recommend using 10 reeds in a small room.
