Reed Diffuser Base

Create professional-quality home fragrance products with our Reed Diffuser Base, a high-performance fragrance carrier and diffuser medium designed for making reed diffusers and home fragrance products.

Derived from soy-based glycerin, this diffuser base provides excellent fragrance solubilizing performance combined with a low evaporation rate and subtle odour, allowing the character of your fragrance to take centre stage. Simply blend with a compatible fragrance oil to create your own customized reed diffuser formulation.

The base is made with isopropylidene glycerol derived from renewable glycerin sources, primarily soy, making it an excellent choice for formulators looking for a naturally derived alternative for their home fragrance creations.
