Has anybody added essential oils to the bottle? I'm thinking it'll be easy to use as a scented spray (almost like perfume), with a couple drops.

I suppose you could add what ever you want. I use it because it has no chemicals in it. It's pure.

What are you trying to add this to ? Most essential oils do not come with the traditional dropper. I simply hold and allow the desired number of drops to add to my carrier base.

I never used the fragrance bottle as it did not give off enough aroma. I just put 2-3 drops right into the water.

I would suggest an e-mail directly to the company. The woman who runs the company is very proud of her product and service. Consequently, I'm sure she will give you all of he help she can. I have used one bottle over about 2 months and it has been just fine--but I've also followed their instructions and have kept the oil in a cool spot in the house--Not hard in Mt!. I've been extremely satisfied with the product, both in terms of quality and price and in fact have recently ordered 2 more bottles.

When I used oil I only used a few drops. But I was using 100% lavender oil. So it got strong quick. So depending on the strength of the smell that you want and it also depends on what your making.

I don't see why not I have used lavender essential oil and am currently using oil of thieves in mine, just be sure to fill with water to the line and then how ever many drops of oil you wish without being overpowering

I have been. I use all of the essential oils in it and haven't had any problems.

ooh no! What kind (both brand and 'flavor') of essential oils are you using? Brands can be important :/ I use an all natural set of oils from a company called Young Living and have not experienced any issues with the plastic quality... Maybe that brand you're using is too industrial?

I have, and more than a few times. :-) I just add a few drops of whichever essential oil(s), such as eucalyptus to the water and voila. However, I have noticed over time the inside of my humidifier will have a gummy-like substance around the water line. I'm sure this is accumulated old-oils from previous uses that would probably happen with using any type of oil. My suggestion would be to use it and then clean the inside of it ever-so-often with a mild detergent. Hope this helps! :-)

It all depends on how many of the sections you but oil on. also how many drops you use and how long you run the diffuser. I've never tried the other kind but I really like mine. Another thing to consider is what essential oil you use. Some have a stronger scent

I made one bottle with 1/4 each of sweet almond oil, rosehip seed oil, sweet orange oil and water. So, being mostly of oil, it did spray a tad heavier than if it were just water-based liquids...but still satisfactory.

My intention was to blend it with other oils and I wasnt able to. They do not blend. I didn't try to mix it with water. In my opinion. This is just vanilla extract not an essential oil as it says on the bottle. I believe this is a misrepresentation of the product

I don't know how the oils are extracted. But I bought the set of oils & wish I had purchased oils with a single scent. The mixed scents are rather odd. I say you can use single scents to mix as you please.

I just read the other reviews. I disagree that is strong. You would probably have to pour the entire bottle out to get any kind of overpowering scent. I do agree that I like tea tree oil for cleaning but it leaves an oil like residue for a while. It is a very mild/light scent.

I'm not sure. I've never tried to use essential oils. You might be able to put a few drops in the water, but I would check with the manufacturer first.

I've been using the same one for a couple of months now. I just add doTerra essential oil drops every 3-4 days. I don't yet know how long I can use this one. :)

I use the essential oils in this bottle and I am filling it with good water and I use it frequently however I have a half dozen of them that I switch off. I believe you can store the essential oils in the bottle yes...for how long depends on the grade of the oil in my opinion a good grade oil may last longer .I imagine 6 months is a fair assumption but I am Just guessing
