Product Care
Diffuser Care
Our diffusers offer a gentle, continual scent without a flame. There are a few things you can do to keep them working at their best, like where to place them and how often to flip your reeds. Discover how to enjoy long-lasting scent and a wellbeing boost naturally.
1 / Handle with care
Our diffusers contain flamable liquid and natural essential oils - so please never light the reeds or flower boquets.
2 / Location, location, location
Diffusers work by drawing the oil up through the reed, where it gently evaporates and releases the scent, which is then dispersed as the air circulates. To get the best out of your diffuser, we recommend positioning it in high-traffic areas where there is good airflow, such as a hallway or near a window, as this will help distribute the scent. It is best to avoid placing your diffuser in direct sunlight, near open doors or windows, in corners or in cluttered or enclosed spaces, which can all hinder scent dispersal.
3 / Keep it away from heat
Place your diffuser away from open flames, heat sources and soft furnishings.
4 / Protect your surfaces
To avoid possible damage from any accidental spills, don't place your diffuser directly on polished, painted, plastic or leather surfaces, or near electrical items.
5 / A scent and wellbeing boost
Turn your reeds once a week to refresh the fragrance and give your space a scent and wellbeing boost. We recommend using gloves to avoid getting the oil on your skin.
6/ Freshen things up
Over time, natural reeds can become clogged by dust, debris or saturation. If this happens, you can find replacement reeds and flower bouquets on our website.
7 / Store with care
If you're not using your diffuser straight away, keep it in a cool, dry place. For best results, we recommend using it within 12 months of purchase. Depending on the scent and with a little TLC, our diffusers will last from 3 - 6 months.
8 / Time to say goodbye
Our vessels are designed to be repurposed. Once used, the vessel can be washed using gloves in warm, soapy water and repurposed or recycled.
9 / Pure, natural and made with care
We only use pure essential oils in our products - nothing artificial, just nature doing what it does best. Cheryl, our founder and aromatherapist, is deeply passionate about the powerful wellbeing benefits essential oils can offer. Used for thousands of years, essential oils are carefully distilled from plants, flowers, roots and leaves - and we thoughtfully blend them to create scents that not only smell beautiful but help support your mood and wellbeing too.

Wye Wicks began as a personal journey after our daughter experienced severe allergic reactions to the harsh chemicals found in some mass-produced candles. That experience led us to explore a gentler, more natural path - and it's one we've stayed true to ever since.
​
Unlike synthetic fragrance oils, which can contain unwanted additives like parabens and phthalates, essential oils are completely natural. We believe what you breathe matters - and just like paraffin wax fumes, synthetic nasties have no place in a healthy home. That's why we keep our ingredients simple, safe and kind - for you and your home.

Although the essential oils used in our products are highly diluted, some people and animals may be sensitive. Always check suitability before use, and if in doubt, seek appropriate medical or veterinary advice.
