Wondering how to effectively clean your aroma diffuser? Good news — it’s much easier than you might think. In just a few minutes, with a couple of simple steps, you can clean your diffuser and keep your scents smelling fresh while making sure your device runs like new.
The cleaning method you’ll use depends on the type of aroma diffuser you have.
If you’re using a water-based aroma diffuser, the main task is to rinse out the water reservoir after each use. However, over time, residue can build up — and in some cases, these diffusers may even develop mold or algae. So every now and then, it’s important to give your diffuser a deeper clean with a little dish soap and warm water. Trust us, your lungs and your scent will thank you.
If you’re using one of Aroma Retail’s waterless aroma diffusers, the cleaning process is even easier. Just pour a small amount of rubbing alcohol into the fragrance oil canister, run the diffuser for a few minutes, and then wipe away any leftover residue. That’s it. No standing water, no risk of mold, and no funky odors that can mess with your favorite fragrance.
At Aroma Retail, all our diffusers are designed with easy maintenance in mind:

So yes, you can clean your aroma diffuser — and you definitely should, especially if you're switching fragrance oils or the scent needs a refresh.
