Candle or Diffuser?

By now, most of you have seen the new craze to hit the "scent" world, diffusers. The oil filled bottles or containers with sticks in them. So, why has this product taken off like crazy over the last few years? Well, there is no fire risk like candles, because they don't burn, the sticks simply absorb the scented oil and release it into the air. When you can no longer smell the oil or need a fast infusion of scent, flip the sticks. Unlike potpourri, there is no risk to children or animals (my dogs will eat anything) and they don't get dusty (remember, I hate to dust).

Now, imagine a romantic evening, fireplace crackling, music in the air, gourmet dinner slowly cooking on the stove and ......sticks in a bottle. Somehow, it's just not the same as a candle flickering on the table, not to mention that soft youthful glow a candle can give you.

I personally have diffusers, candles and potpourri in my home. But then, I have this fetish for scents. The choice is yours. Should you decide to buy a diffusers keep in mind that not all of them are the same. Some oils smell horrible, cheap and sickening sweet. Others, like my favorite, Anthousa, is a rich, true scent that never goes stale on you. You can spend as little or as much as you want. We carry Earth Elements starting at $24.00, Fruits and Passion starting at $28.00, Votivo (new to the line, including the famous Red Currant!) $50.00 and Anthousa starting at $65.00.

I don't think diffusers will replace candles, but I am enjoying the new addition to the market. Try one and see for yourself.
