From Diptyque, the Culbuto Oscillating diffuser in Baies: "One simple gesture activates the Culbuto, diffusing notes of Baies (Berries). The rocker arm amplifies these, its motion evoking memories of childhood. The Culbuto is an unusual, intriguing object comprising a sphere of solid wood and a ceramic stick that releases green notes of blackcurrant berries mingled with flowery rose accents. It is endlessly refillable." $285 at Diptyque. To refill, you replace the ceramic stick, $65.
