Augeo is by far the best reed diffuser base oil we have found. Unlike DPM and other diffuser bases, Augeo evaporates fully and does not have the metallic odour associated with other base materials.

In addition, if you plan to export your diffusers to the US, base materials can often be problematic; but not this material.
Augeo is fully compliant with CARB Regulation in the USA, meaning it is not classed as VOC (vapor pressure below 0.1 mg Hg). This means that Augeo does not contribute to the VOC content of the final product, which wax 18% at the time of writing.

This allows for high levels of fragrance loading (15-25%) without breaching CARB regulations.
