Hi Alan, i have been binging on your videos. Love everything about them and i value your opinions. Can you do a room/linen spray video/tutorial? Thanks!
Hi Allen. so I am new to these diffusers and very confused. I am doing car diffusers and a jar measures at .25oz. I want 75/25 can you help me figure out this formula.. many thanks
@joniperiu8308 Okay, because you’re dealing with such a small measurement, I’d work in grams. 0.25oz = about 7g. Remember, 75/25 is equivalent to 3:1 3:1 ratio means there are 3+1 or 4 parts total. 7g/4 parts = 1.75g/part 1.75g x 3 = 5.25g 1.75g x 1 = 1.75g Those are your amounts. Make sense?
Hi Alan any recommendation about using TFC in reed diffusers? I checked their website and documents but theres no category 10A also unlike CS its easy to identify if its reed diffuser compatible...If so any recommendation on how to work on FOs in reed diffusers if this is not indicated on their website or any advise.
Hi there! With Flaming Candle, I reach out to them by email or phone and specifically tell them the fragrances I need the IFRA certificates for and they provide them. Hope this helps!
Hi !! can you please tell can we use iso-propyl alcohol in place of diffuser base and also tell the percentage composition of blend for reed diffuser (if i use IPA, Carrier Oil nd Essential oil) ??
No, I wouldn't use this in place of a proper base. I'd recommend Nature's Garden's base as it is the most affordable I have found and does the job excellently.
Hi Brandyn!! Absolutely-glad you enjoyed 💗🌱 It depends on the oil, but my general rule is 1:1 because essential oils will lose their scent potency generally much quicker than fragrance oils.
If you added two more ounces of the fill and wanted to keep the same proportions as this video, then here’s your formula: -4.5oz Reed diffuser base (75%) -1.5 oz Fragrance (25%)
Hello Allen , can you link or tell me where you get your glass beaker and glass stirrer ? The beaker link in description isn’t working the others are ! Thank you 😊 enjoying your videos still! 😂 🥰
Hi there! Not that I am aware of but you always want to check the IFRA certificate and make sure your fragrance percentage is compliant with the Reed diffuser category.
Hi there! You can do this as long as they are both Reed diffuser compatible and you’re not exceeding the maximum usage rate to be IFRA compliant for Reed diffusers. If you’re blending scents, the scent with the lower usage rate is the one you’ll need to use for the entire blend.
Aqui no Brasil 🇧🇷 @peterpaiva nos ensina a usar mais varetas para que tampe a boca do frasco para que o líquido nao se evapore rapidamente vale a pena voce conhecer ele é incrível . Outra coisa em gramas quanto seria aqui no Brasil 🇧🇷 usamos gramas
Hi there! The bottle is much larger than 4 oz but the fill is considered 4 oz for a Reed diffuser with this bottle as they are not intended to be filled up to the brim. Love and light 💛
came across your video as a beginner and it really helped. Also, I really love your personality❤

Hi Joni! Is 0.25 oz the total fill of the container?
yes they are very small @@earthglow
car diffusers
@joniperiu8308 Okay, because you’re dealing with such a small measurement, I’d work in grams. 0.25oz = about 7g.
Remember, 75/25 is equivalent to 3:1
3:1 ratio means there are 3+1 or 4 parts total.
7g/4 parts = 1.75g/part
1.75g x 3 = 5.25g
1.75g x 1 = 1.75g
Those are your amounts. Make sense?
The “aha” moment. Thanks you Allen for explaining it so well.

thank you will do that but why is it that most companies have it on there website while tfc does not. i mean so we can just easily see it.
@user-ih8dy3op6b I wish I had an answer to that! Please ask them! I’d love to know.

This is SO easy!! Thanks for sharing! 🧡 If you want to use essential oils instead of scent oils, what ratio would you recommend?
Hi Brandyn!! Absolutely-glad you enjoyed 💗🌱
It depends on the oil, but my general rule is 1:1 because essential oils will lose their scent potency generally much quicker than fragrance oils.
? Is it ratio of carrier oil and essential oil? Don't think so.
What if you wanted to add 2 more ounces to fill the container more ? Then how many ounces would you use of fragrance oil? and reed diffuser base?
If you added two more ounces of the fill and wanted to keep the same proportions as this video, then here’s your formula:
-4.5oz Reed diffuser base (75%)
-1.5 oz Fragrance (25%)
Hello Allen , can you link or tell me where you get your glass beaker and glass stirrer ? The beaker link in description isn’t working the others are ! Thank you 😊 enjoying your videos still! 😂 🥰
Oh no!!! I get them on amazon--I'll try to fix it.
Thank you Alan! Making mine tomorrow, can’t wait to enjoy my office with an amazing fragrance for encouraging calmness 🙏🏻 Namaste
nice one bro. can i ask why there is no alcohol like vodka 1 tbsp to bind everything?
Hi there! Great question! The Nature’s Garden Reed diffuser base is specifically designed to bind the ingredients.
I know candle science base is compatible with certain oils. Is NatureGardens only compatible with certain oils?
Hi there! Not that I am aware of but you always want to check the IFRA certificate and make sure your fragrance percentage is compliant with the Reed diffuser category.
Great video! Thanks
Glad you enjoyed this one! Thanks for your kind words 😊
love your videos thank you
Glad you enjoyed!

Absolutely!!! Glad you enjoyed 💛
Thank you 😊😊😊😊😊
You’re most welcome! Glad you enjoyed!
Hello where can I get diffuser base
Candlescience or Nature's Garden are my recommendations.
Please can I mix two different fragrance oil to get a different scent
Hi there! You can do this as long as they are both Reed diffuser compatible and you’re not exceeding the maximum usage rate to be IFRA compliant for Reed diffusers. If you’re blending scents, the scent with the lower usage rate is the one you’ll need to use for the entire blend.

How come it wasn’t enough to fill the bottle using 75-25% for a 4oz bottle?
Hi there! The bottle is much larger than 4 oz but the fill is considered 4 oz for a Reed diffuser with this bottle as they are not intended to be filled up to the brim. Love and light 💛
