Make your own fragrant reed diffuser
I have bought these bottles several times and they loose their fragrance very quickly. I came across a reipe to make your own and found they last for months instead of weeks. 3 tablespoons of Jojoba oil, 50 drops of aromatic oil. Combine oils in bottle, shake and insert reeds. The Jojoba oil is expensive but you can make a lot of  bottles with it. I think the bought varieties probably use an inferial oil.

I've also never found a reed diffuser last long (fragrance wise)

Why dont you sell some? seems like you have found a formula that works :-)

I have never found them to last either, probably they use cheap ingredients in the bought ones. Marian

The one I sell via my FB page last for 3-6 months! (none advertised here so not really advertising). You need to be careful with the thickness of the carrier oil as it can clog up the reeds.

 They don't loose their fragrance (I use them all the time).  The tip is to invert the reeds once a week, this then keeps the fragrance constant.  They also shouldn't be placed where there are any drafts (this will dry out the reeds).
