Ecoya scent guide: candle, diffuser or room spray?
- Soy candle: the strongest scent and a soft glow, for when you’re home and can keep an eye on it. Trim the wick before each burn.
- Reed diffuser: flame-free and working all day, ideal for bathrooms, hallways and homes with pets or children. Flip the reeds every week or so to refresh the scent.
- Room spray: an instant lift before guests arrive, or on linen and cushions.
How to refill an Ecoya diffuser
- Remove the old reeds and throw them away. Used reeds are clogged and won’t carry the new fragrance well.
- Pour any remaining oil out and rinse the jar with warm water, then let it dry completely.
- Pour in an Ecoya refill in the same scent, or try a new one.
- Add the fresh reeds that come with the refill and flip them once after an hour.
We stock refills in French Pear and Guava & Lychee Sorbet.
Ecoya gift ideas by budget
- Under $40: a mini candle, mini diffuser, room spray, or hand and body wash or lotion.
- $40 to $80: a full-size Madison candle or reed diffuser, or pair a lotion with a wash in the same scent.
- $80 and over: the Grand Celebration Candle, or a candle and diffuser set in one scent. Add fresh flowers for a gift that’s hard to beat.
