4 Places you never thought you’d use an oil diffuser
Diffuse oils in the bedroom? Sure, we love that too! But if you’re an aromatherapy fan, we’re about to blow your mind. There are other places in and around your home you might not have thought to use an oil diffuser – and it can give these spaces a serious glow-up.
Ready to unlock the next level? Here are our favourite ‘non traditional’ places to use aromatherapy.
1. Bathroom
You already use reed diffusers or candles… why not an oil diffuser? Oil diffusers have several advantages over other scent options for the bathroom, ensuite or toilet.
They can run for hours, which ensures a continuous scent (especially when guests are over). The aroma remains pungent rather than fading away after a few days. It’s natural, unlike many plug-in options. And you can change the scent as often as you like.
Our personal favourite for the bathroom is our Compact Stone Diffuser, which is small and (as the name suggests), compact: perfect for a small room. Not to mention it’s very pretty! Pair with our Air Care diffuser oil range from Coles, with naturally-derived aromas such as Sea Breeze, Outback, Rainforest, Purify or Harmony.
2. Kitchen
A place where beautiful smells are right at home, the kitchen is also the central gathering spot for most families. It's where we spend a huge chunk of our time, socialising, organising, connecting. So why not enjoy the wellness benefits of essential oils where you really need it?
Our Sweet Life range of diffuser oils is made for the kitchen: with mouth-watering scents like Strawberries & Cream, Decadent Tiramisu and Caramel Latte, they’re ideal to pop on when guests come around (or anytime, really!).
We recommend a larger capacity diffuser for this open area – our Ultrasonic Diffuser, with a water capacity of 300ml is perfect and can run for 9 hours.
Morning can be a good time to pop on your diffuser while you’re making coffee and breakfast. Our Australian Natives Energy or Focus blends are both perfect to help uplift and motivate for the day ahead. Or try our Purify blend after a big day of cooking or during a Spring clean, to freshen and remove stale odours.
3. Car
Now this one’s a bit left field, but we’ve been inspired by fans who’ve told us they use an oil diffuser in the car.
Hear us out: not only is a diffuser an incredible natural air freshener, the essential oil blend you pick can also help set your mood and intention for the day.
Why not transform a space which can sometimes be stressful or boring into a mini meditation sanctuary, by choosing a diffuser oil that inspires you?
Our True You range is just that. Whether you aspire to be Kind, Strong, Brave, Curious or Inspired, there’s a diffuser oil to help you.
It goes without saying that you’ll want a waterless diffuser if you’re using it in the car. Our Simply Oil Waterless Diffuser is the best pick. Not only is it cordless (rechargeable by USB, it lasts for up to 30 hours), there’s no water to spill and it’s easy to swap oils to suit your vibe for the day.
Oh, and did we mention it fits in most car cup holders?
4. Outside
A diffuser outside, what? Well, why not! If you’re entertaining outdoors in good weather, a beautiful aromatherapy scent can perfectly compliment the occasion.
Cordless and waterless, our Simply Oil Diffuser is easiest to move around for outdoor events and is surprisingly aromatic, even in the open air. Place near a doorway where people are coming in and out for the best effect.
Which oils will suit your occasion? The sky’s the limit, but for an upbeat gathering here’s some of our favourites: Lorne or Bondi, in our Destinations range for a beachy fun vibe.
Tropical Bliss or Passion Punch, in our Sweet Life range for a cocktail party. Or Harmony, a lovely citrus scent that’s a great all-rounder.
Hosting a teen party? You can’t go past the Aromachology Mood Boost blend!
