Diffuser Maintenance

How to Clean Your Diffuser
Keep your diffuser working at its best with a quick and simple cleaning routine.
Although our fragrances are 100% natural and crafted for purity, occasional maintenance ensures your diffuser continues to perform beautifully — and safely.

Safety First: Before You Start
Even though our formulas are natural, plant-based and non-toxic, they are highly concentrated. Please follow these precautions:
  • Avoid direct contact with eyes or mouth.
  • Do not ingest. Keep vials and diffuser parts away from children and pets.
  • Wear gloves if you have sensitive skin. Prolonged skin contact may cause mild irritation.
  • Always clean in a well-ventilated area.
  • Keep out of reach of children.


Step-by-Step Cleaning Instructions
What You’ll Need:
  • Clean hands (or gloves)
  • A soft cloth or paper towel
  • Clean, room temperature or warm water (no soap or alcohol)
  • Optional: cotton swab for tight spots


Step 1: Power Off and Remove the Vial
  1. Unplug or switch off the diffuser.
  2. Let it cool for a few minutes if it’s been running.
  3. Gently remove the fragrance vial from the diffuser and set it aside upright.


Step 2: Detach the Scent Pipe
  1. Carefully separate the scent pipe (also called the absorption tube) from the diffuser.
  2. Take note of which end goes into the vial — this is important for reassembly.
  3. The pipe contains a built-in filter, located at the end that absorbs fragrance.


Step 3: Check for Blockages
  1. Look closely at both ends of the pipe.
  2. If you see oil buildup or a blockage, it could be limiting fragrance flow.
  3. This is common and easy to fix.


Step 4: Rinse the Pipe
  1. Run room temperature or warm water through the pipe from both ends to clear any residue.
    (No need for soap — just water is enough.)
  2. Shake gently to remove excess water and let it air dry for a few minutes.


Step 5: Reattach the Pipe Correctly
  1. Reinsert the pipe with the filter positioned at the bottom — the end that goes into the vial.
  2. Push gently but firmly until it's securely connected to the diffuser.


Step 6: Test & Enjoy
  1. Reinsert the fragrance vial.
  2. Plug in or turn on your diffuser.
  3. Within minutes, you should notice the scent returning to normal.


Pro Tips:
  • Clean your diffuser every 8 weeks if used regularly.
  • If you switch between fragrances, give your pipe a quick rinse in between to prevent overlap.
  • Always use Nature Scents fragrances with your diffuser. Other products may damage internal parts or affect scent diffusion performance.
  • If you're still not getting any scent, visit our or Support page.
