Though I had been eyeing up the reed diffuser from Cochine, the price point put me off and I did have the fear that it would be just like the many other reed diffusers out there.
Zuneta had and still have an offer on that if you spend £40 or more on Cochine you get a free White Jasmine and Gardenia Votive Candle worth £20, I took this as my impetus to make the order, vowing this would be my last attempt at reed diffusers.

I bought the Agarwood & Amber scent (£49). It contains Agarwood, White Amber, Tuberose and Patchouli and is warming with a bit of spice to it.
The Diffuser comes in an elegant box with tassel, making it a nice looking present.

The candle by contrast is much milder. White Jasmine and Gardenia is a pretty light fresh floral feminine scent. I'm very picky with candles but I like this as it doesn't give off black smoke and the smell, whilst subtle, is very pleasant.
Its also made from botanical palm oil wax from a renewable resource and the cotton wick is lead-free.

I've been impressed with Cochine thus far, its a stylish looking range, luxurious and elegant but most importantly the products live up to their price tag.
I bought the diffuser from zuneta.com the candle was the gift with purchase.
Oh, you are naughty! I keep looking and looking again at the reed diffusers. I'd love something that really scented our room. A house full of children doesn't always make for the most elegant ambiance if you know what I'm saying ;) x
ReplyDeleteThat sound lovely and what a fantastic present it would be.
ReplyDeleteThe Reed Diffuser sounds great! I've used theL'Occitane Candied Fruits Diffuser and the scent was far too subtle, I could only smell it if I got very close to it, but this one sounds much better.
ReplyDeleteHi Jane,
ReplyDeleteI hear you, it is very good at covering those little people "smells". The thing is I want more of them now, one of each scent, I wonder if I can try to convince husband that these should come under a household expense ;) x
Hi ihavemostlybeen,
It would make a great present, they have paid attention to detail.
Hi Klara,
I have tried two of the L'Occitane ones and found them a bit meh, this one is the strongest I have ever tried, good thing I like the scent! :)
If you can make that idea fly, you'll have to fill me in on how to pull it off too ;)
ReplyDeleteLOL Jane, I'll take that as a challenge ;) x
