Both are high-quality fragrances made with essential oils and premium aromatic compounds that transform your home into an authentic Polynesian sanctuary.

Each Anakena diffuser comes complete with everything you need:

• 1 elegant glass bottle containing 150 ml of premium fragrance
• 8 natural fiber rods in individual bags

You don't need to buy anything extra. You can start scenting your space right away: just open the bottle, insert the reeds, and adjust the amount according to the desired intensity.

A reed diffuser distributes the fragrance naturally and continuously: the fiber reeds absorb the scented liquid and gradually release it into the air, evenly perfuming your space.

Steps for use:

• Carefully remove the clear safety cap from the bottle.
• Screw the gold screw cap back on completely.
• Place the desired number of rods in the jar and arrange them freely.
• Place the diffuser on a stable, level surface.

Maintenance:

• Turn the sticks approximately twice a week to maintain the intensity of the aroma.
• The approximate duration is 6 to 8 weeks depending on the temperature and number of rods.

Tip: The more reeds you use, the stronger the fragrance will be. Adjust according to your preference.

At the end: Once the fragrance is finished, you can reuse the glass bottle as a vase for decorative dried flowers. Recycle the cardboard box and sticks according to local recycling regulations.

Each diffuser includes 8 sticks. You can adjust the intensity of the aroma according to your preferences:

• 4-6 reeds for small rooms or a mild scent
• 7-8 sticks for medium/large rooms or a more intense aroma

Under normal conditions, our diffusers last between 4 and 8 weeks. The duration may vary depending on the ambient temperature, ventilation, and the number of sticks used.

Yes. To renew the intensity of the aroma, we recommend turning all or some of the reeds once a week. This reactivates the diffusion of the perfume and keeps the fragrance fresh.

To safely enjoy your diffuser and extend its life:

Location:

• Place it on a stable surface protected from spills.
• Avoid contact with delicate, painted, or varnished surfaces.
• Keep away from direct sunlight and heat sources (flammable liquid).
• Use in well-ventilated areas

Safety:

• Keep out of reach of children and pets.
• Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and mucous membranes.
• Do not ingest. Product for environmental use only.

Ideally, place it in a location with good air circulation, but without strong drafts that will cause the fragrance to evaporate too quickly. Avoid placing it near fans, air conditioning, or open windows with direct drafts, as these will accelerate evaporation and reduce the diffuser's lifespan.

The best places are: hallways, living rooms, bathrooms, bedrooms, or entryways.

Our diffusers are made with fragrances that include essential oils, natural and synthetic fragrances, and alcohol. This composition guarantees an exceptional olfactory experience, safety, and long-lasting performance.

They are free from parabens, petrolatum, and artificial colors, are not tested on animals, are vegan, and comply with IFRA regulations. This formulation combines the best of high-quality natural and synthetic ingredients to create safe and stable fragrances.

Clean immediately with a dry or slightly damp cloth and ventilate the area. Avoid contact with painted, varnished, or delicate surfaces, as the liquid may stain or damage them.

Yes. Once clean and dry, you can reuse the jar as a vase for decorative dried flowers or to store other products. We will soon be offering more sustainable options to give them a second life.
