To ensure the best experience from your room diffuser, Acqua di Parma recommends: Unscrew the cap and remove the inner plate. Replace the cap and insert the reeds in the bottle. At first use, it is necessary to soak the reeds for 24 hours before turning them over. The frequency of which some or all of the reeds are flipped over determines the intensity of the fragrance (the more often they are turned around, the greater the intensity). If the diffusion is too intense, adjust by removing a few reeds until the desired level is achieved. In order to prolong the duration of the fragrance, it is advisable to avoid high temperatures, direct sunlight and rigorous air circulation that can speed up evaporation. Place the home fragrance diffuser on a flat surface where it will not be exposed to humidity. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. The fragrance concentrate contains natural raw materials, therefore its colour may slightly change over time without compromising its olfactory performance. After handling the rattan reeds, it is advisable to rinse your hands with clean water and soap. Highly flammable liquid and vapour.
