Diffusers are all the rage at the moment, with more and more people opting for this style of home fragrance. It’s easy to see why – diffusers not only create beautiful fragrances but watching their flow of steam is just so relaxing and they come in so many ornamental designs, creating a multi-sensory experience. At Home Store Living, we only stock brands of the highest
quality, which is why we’re a proud stockist of Sensum’s premium diffusers and fragrance oils. Keep on reading to find out why you need one in your life.

First, what actually is a diffuser?

Diffusers break down oils to disperse them into the air, adding fragrance at a comfortable, breathable concentration without being overbearing. Sensum’s fragrances also include essential
oils, so you can reap their benefits when breathing them in – their Indian Summer fragrance, for example, contains eucalyptus oil, which can soothe a stuffy nose and even provide pain relief.

There are many different types of diffusers, but Sensum offer ‘ultrasonic diffusers’, also known as humidifying diffusers. After you dilute the oils with water, the diffuser uses ultrasonic
vibrations to create a fine mist. They are great at adding moisture into the air, which is ideal in colder seasons when humidity levels are low and our airways become dried out.

So, why should you invest in one?

There are endless reasons why a Sensum diffuser is the perfect addition to any home. First of all, the scents are incredible. Sensum’s fragrances in particular are themed around locations all over the world, from Brazil to California, to Paris, to Africa. The brand’s creator began Sensum
as a way to bottle his memories from the many places he had travelled, so the scents have a truly ‘transportative’ quality.

As mentioned earlier, Sensum’s fragrances include a range of essential oils, so it’s not just the beautiful scents that contribute to your self-care routine. The oils have benefits such as being
anti-bacterial, helping to relieve pain, improving sleep and having stress-relieving properties – who knew that home fragrance could help you with all this?! This article from Byrdie suggests a great idea – diffusing certain oils at particular times of the day to associate the scents with good habits. You can also choose to diffuse the oils over a 1 hour, 3 hour or 6 hour period, so whether you’d like a quick burst of fragrance to energise your morning or need your room to smell amazing for an entire evening while guests are over, Sensum has you covered. The diffuser is also pretty much noiseless, so you don’t have to worry about any whirring sounds ruining the moment.

Sensum diffusers are also ultra stylish, with the steam travelling up an elegant, long stem as well as featuring colour-changing LED mood lighting that adds to the experience by creating a tranquil ambience. We have 5 different colours – metallic gold and champagne, as well as a glossy grey, white and charcoal – which means you can choose the perfect shade to suit your room. As
if smelling great and contributing to your wellness wasn’t enough, Sensum diffusers also act as pieces of statement decor, immediately elevating any room.

But how exactly do you use your diffuser?

Okay, so we’ve convinced you that diffusers are simply a must-have, but what puts many people off gadgets like this is when they’re difficult to assemble. Luckily, you won’t have this
problem with Sensum! It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3…

1.) Use the provided water jug to fill the tank to its maximum capacity
2.) Add 4-5 drops of whichever Sensum fragrance oil suits the moment
3.) Turn on the diffuser and adjust the settings to your preference.

To keep your diffuser in tip-top condition, make sure to empty out the water once you’re finished using it for the day, as this can harbour bacteria when left sitting, and you don’t want to be diffusing this into your surroundings. Diffusers don’t have to be cleaned after each use – in fact, when the residue of your last oil combines with your next, it can elevate the scent even more.
However, a regular clean can’t hurt; just make sure everything is unplugged and wipe the tank clean with a damp cloth and natural soap, or a mixture of water and vinegar for an occasional deep clean. You really want to avoid any harsh cleaning products, as you will be breathing this in next time you use your diffuser, and no one wants a room reeking of bleach! Once you have
rinsed and dried everything, you’re good to go!
