The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 23 August 2024 2 Comments

From Vörda, a wood diffuser (as low tech as you can get: it has a small cavity on the top where you drop the oil) in Japanese Cypress: "A simple yet elegant design inspired by "vās", the Latin word for a vessel that is often used for carrying flowers. Handcrafted from the wood of the Japanese hinoki cypress tree. Native to Japan in East Asia, the hinoki cypress has been long cherished for its subtle and crisp scent of fresh lemon, and ornamental qualities. The delicate pale yellow of the wood adds a touch of light to your décor." In two sizes, Small for $39 and Large for $48; oils sold separately, the Hinoki cypress oil is $24 for 100 ml but  you can mix and match woods and oils. At Vörda.

    This is cute and certainly reasonably priced. I have never used oils before, but saw a diffuser in a chiropractor’s office that smelled really nice. That one was electric. I am wondering how this would work penetrating into the wood. Would it hold that scent or would you be able to use others?

      If it was electric it also probably had much better diffusion than this is likely to…I like this idea as a “gentle” bedside diffuser.
