Exceeded My Expectations!
I love essential oils, and I have experienced first-hand the physical, mental, and spiritual benefits of it. Before I started using a diffuser, I would use a spray bottle with water and essential oils but the aroma would dissipate fast, so this led me to start using diffusers. This diffuser exceeded my expectations. It is far better than the aura cacia diffuser I previously used. The deneve diffuser comes with a measuring cup and the tank holds about 100 ml which is about 3.4 oz. You can add about 3 to 5 drops of essential oils to a full tank and the aroma can last about 5 hours.
It is really easy to clean. I have used different fragrances in this diffuser and each time the aroma smells clean and exactly how it's suppose to smell. It also sterilizes, purifies, and ionizes the water and oils which was a big plus for me. The diffuser looks a lot better than I thought it would. The pictures doesn't give this diffuser enough justice. The band changes colors every few seconds from blue, green, yellow, red, pink, and light blue, which is really nice and adds a classy essence to any area you put it in.
Most of the time I keep it in the living room, and it takes just mere minutes for the aroma to fill the living room, dining room, and kitchen which is about 600 sq. feet all together. The smell never gets too strong if you use no more than 5 drops of essential oil in a full tank.
I can also hear the quiet whisper of a water stream dripping onto rocks when standing near the diffuser. It is a quiet sound and it is not distracting nor will it divert you from sleeping as it is very relaxing.
I've found that to make great mixtures of fragrances, you can use a technique similar to a musical scale. You can use oil(s) for a high note, then one or more oils for the middle note, and one or more oils for a base note. This helps so that the fragrance doesn't become too strong or unpleasant. You can also just use one oil in your diffuser if you choose. Lavender oil is very popular because it helps with anxiety, stress, respiratory problems, insomnia, and it provides many more benefits.
For example, this is a fragrance mixture I use for relaxation and to reduce depression. It is made on a high, middle, and base note scale.
2 drops of lavender (high note)
1 drop of sandalwood (middle)
2 drops of rose (rosa damascena) (base note)
I use two drops of rose for my base note because it is a much lighter scent than the stronger scents sandalwood and lavender. Any oil or fragrance that I use in this diffuser always makes me feel like I'm in a spa. My family also loves this diffuser. I even diffuse lavender at night for my two year old and it helps her to sleep. There aren't any cons that I can think of. I have used it for several months without any problems.
