Understanding Your Travel Diffuser ✨
Our travel diffusers diffuse in two different ways. Choose your model; the advice is not the same for both.
🌿 The suspended car diffuser
Here, the wooden cap does all the work: soaked in fragrance, it gradually releases it into the car.
Click on the golden dots to discover how to get started, the right weekly gesture and mistakes to avoid.
🧭 Getting started
🔄 Activate and adjust diffusion
- Tilt the bottle 1 to 2 times a week
- The more you tilt it, the more present the fragrance will be
- The less you tilt it, the longer the duration will be
⏳ Duration and performance
Average diffusion up to 4 to 6 weeks, variable depending on temperature, sun exposure, and frequency of use. Heat accelerates fragrance evaporation ☀️
⚠️ Best practices
- Always check that the cap is tightly screwed on
- Do not leave the bottle upside down for too long
- Avoid contact with plastic, fabric, or leather surfaces
🧴 Is your bottle empty?
Do not throw it away. Give it a second life with our Fragrance Elixirs, our refills specially designed for car diffusers. You keep your bottle, you change your story ✨
🌬️ The ventilation car diffuser
Here, the sticks absorb the fragrance and diffuse it by capillarity, aided by the airflow from your ventilation.
Click on the golden dots to discover how to get started, the correct positioning and the mistake to absolutely avoid.
🧭 Getting started
⚠️ The essential point
Never invert this bottle. Unlike the suspended model, diffusion occurs only through the sticks. Inverting it will not enhance anything, but risks spilling the fragrance on your dashboard.
🔄 How it works
- Continuous and automatic diffusion, no manipulation required
- Intensity influenced by ventilation, temperature, and number of sticks
- With two sticks, diffusion is more intense; with one, it lasts longer
⏳ Duration and performance
Average diffusion up to 4 to 6 weeks, variable depending on airflow, heat, and exposure.
💡 Optimize diffusion
- Use one or two sticks depending on desired intensity
- Place the diffuser in a ventilated area
- Avoid prolonged direct sun exposure

🧪 Common tips for both models
📍 Ideal placement
- In the car: on the ventilation or rearview mirror, depending on the chosen model
- Indoors: a small ventilated space such as an entryway, office, or dressing room
- To avoid: direct heat, humidity, fragile surfaces, sensitive textiles and plastics
⏳ Extend duration
- Limit unnecessary handling
- Avoid prolonged exposure to sun and intense heat
- Adjust intensity to the space, as more air circulation means faster diffusion
- Close the bottle properly when refilling or changing fragrance
⚠️ Safety
- Keep out of reach of children and pets
- Do not ingest
- Do not apply to skin and never use as a body fragrance
- Avoid all contact with eyes, mucous membranes, and fragile surfaces
- Clean immediately in case of contact with a surface
- Keep away from any flame, heat source, or spark
- Use only to refill a suitable diffuser
🧴 Refill your car diffuser
- Only use a refill suitable for fragrance diffusers
- Fill the bottle carefully, without overflowing
- Close the bottle tightly after refilling
- Immediately wipe off any drops that fall on or around the bottle
- Do not mix several fragrances in the same bottle without prior cleaning
🧼 Cleaning before changing fragrance
- Empty the bottle completely
- Rinse gently with warm soapy water or a little household alcohol
- Do not use abrasive products
- Allow to air dry completely, ideally for 24 hours
- Refill only when the bottle is perfectly dry
📖 Les Fondeurs d'Histoires advice
Each fragrance has been designed to be diffused as is, in a suitable bottle or diffuser. To maintain the same fragrance, refill directly without cleaning. To change fragrance, clean the bottle thoroughly beforehand.
Our Fragrance Elixirs are not body perfumes: they should never be sprayed, applied to the skin, or used on clothing. This ensures controlled diffusion, an olfactive balance faithful to the creation, and safer daily use.
