A room full of old books
Some old rooms have never been renovated. The shelves still hold books with cracked spines, and the wood has darkened over decades.
Iris opens, cool and powdery, like the inside of a wooden drawer. Sandalwood arrives next, warm and unhurried. Tobacco leaf comes last, the smell of old leather chairs and slow evenings, nothing like a cigarette.
It is a dry scent that stays in the background while you read or work.

Where it fits at home
The desk
A notebook, a pen and a cup going cold. Sandalwood keeps to itself.
A reading corner
One chair, one lamp, one shelf. Powdery iris and dry tobacco leaf suit the spot.
Late, when the house is quiet
Everyone else is asleep and this room is still lit. Sandalwood and tobacco leaf settle in.
How to set up the reeds
Open the bottle and put the reeds in. Within 30 minutes to an hour they soak up the oil and start to scent the room.
For a faster start, pull the reeds out, turn them upside down and put them back.
More reeds give a stronger scent, fewer reeds a softer one. Adjust the number to the size of the room and to your taste.
Keep the bottle somewhere airy, away from the air-conditioner vent and out of direct sun.
When the reeds darken and the scent fades, it is time for fresh reeds.
If you stop using it for a while, take the reeds out and close the bottle tightly.
Stop using it if you feel dizzy or unwell.
FAQ
Where should I put a reed diffuser?
Somewhere airy, such as the living room, a desk or a bookshelf. Keep it away from the air-conditioner vent and out of direct sun.
How do I make the scent stronger or softer?
Change the number of reeds. More reeds give a stronger scent, fewer reeds a softer one.
Reed diffuser or room spray?
A reed diffuser gives a steady, continuous scent. A room spray works at once but fades sooner, which suits a quick change of air.
Where does NOTE deliver?
