what is diffuser

A diffuser is a device that disperses essential oils into a space using air pressure, mist, a fan, or a heat source. Diffusers are commonly used to fill the air in a room with tiny, breathable particles of beneficial essential oils, giving the room a pleasant scent. There are four types of diffusers: nebulizing diffuser, ultrasonic diffuser, evaporative diffuser, and heat diffuser. Each type of diffuser works differently, and the answer to how a diffuser works depends on the type of diffuser. For example, an evaporative diffuser uses a pad, filter, or reeds to diffuse the essential oils, while a heat diffuser contains a small candle under a bowl to vaporize a mixture of water and oil. A nebulizer is a device that does not use water or heat as other diffusers, and the bottle of essential oil is attached directly to the nebulizer. The benefit of using this device is a strong concentration of the essential oil.
