Notes
To use the reed diffusers:
Uncork and add the sticks to the bottle. After 10 minute, flip the sticks and you’ll begin to smell the Christmas scent in the air.
Use more sticks for a more concentrated fragrance and fewer to a lighter scent.
Experiment with different essential oil blends to create a custom scent.
