Both candles and reed diffusers are incredibly popular ways to make your home smell nice. But which is the right one for you? Here are the differences to help you choose.
Candle vs. Reed Diffuser
Candles are wax materials, small in size. They contain a wick in the center that you light with a match or lighter. One of the reasons is, when the candle burns the scent fills the room. Reed diffusers are small glass bottles containing scented oil. They come with reeds that absorb the oil and gradually release the fragrance into the space.
