Collection: Oil Burners

A home fragrance oil burner is a device that uses heat to vaporise scented oils, releasing fragrance into the air. Here’s how it typically works:

• Heat Source: Usually, a tea light candle is placed underneath, or an electric burner is used.
• Fragrance Oil: A few drops of fragrance oil are placed in the dish or bowl on top.
• Diffusion: As the heat warms the oil, the fragrance disperses.

You can use fragrance oils or essential oils. Be sure they’re specifically for burners, as some oils are unsuitable for heating.

• Fragrance Oils: Often synthetic and come in many scents.
• Essential Oils: Natural extracts that provide a more subtle scent.

Start with 3-5 drops of oil and adjust based on your preference and the burner size. Avoid overfilling to prevent spills or overly strong scents.

For regular upkeep:

1. Cool the burner completely before cleaning.
2. Wipe out residual oil with a paper towel.
3. Wash the dish with warm, soapy water if there’s any residue.

Avoid harsh chemicals as they can damage the burner or leave residues.

No, never leave an oil burner unattended, especially if using a tea light candle burner. This is a fire risk, and the burner can overheat if left too long.

The scent typically lasts 2-4 hours with a single tea light or until the oil evaporates. Electric burners may allow for longer diffusion.

• Tea Light - Uses a candle as a heat source, more traditional
• Electric - Plugs in, heat is adjustable, no open flame

Electric burners are often safer and provide more control over the intensity of the scent.

Yes, you can blend different oils to create unique scents. Experiment with a few drops of each and adjust based on your preference.

If the oil smells burnt, it might be:

• Overheated: Reduce the heat or switch to a lower-wattage bulb in electric burners.
• Low on oil: Refill the oil dish, as burning dry residue can cause a burnt smell.

With proper care, both tea light and electric burners can last for years. Avoid using harsh cleaners or letting oils burn dry to maintain longevity.
