>In the many years I’ve worked as an aromatherapist, I have seen many a diffuser.
Why?
Because, for the most part they were ugly!
Many manufacturers still make a ‘diffuser’ that’s simply a tacky blue and black aquarium pump with an attachment = aaaah! I can’t stand those.
It used to be that the only alternative to the hideous aquarium pumps was a candle diffuser and we all know how safe those are. With animals or kids in the home, the candle diffuser is a nice but impractical idea.
The year of 2011
The range of designer, beautiful, sleek, all around gorgeous diffusers is staggering.

I could easily have one of these in every room of the house!
By far the most beautiful and powerful is the Ultrasonic Aroma Diffuser. To quote the product description: “Cutting edge technology never looked or smelled so good.”
