Choosing a Scent for Your Car Diffuser
Choose a fragrance by its scent profile and compatibility with your exact device. Explore the Vaucluse car diffuser collection.
Waterless Nebulizing vs Water-Based Diffusers
The upgraded VAUCLUSE Rose Gold and Silver electric diffusers use waterless nebulizing technology. Their product instructions specify oil-based essential oils, not water-soluble oils, with no added water. Follow the instructions supplied with your model for filling, operation and cleaning.
Ultrasonic and other water-based machines are a different device type. Follow their manufacturer's instructions for compatible oils, water and quantities. Do not apply water-based diffuser instructions to a VAUCLUSE waterless nebulizing model.
Compatibility depends on the formulation and the specific device, not simply whether an oil is described as pure, synthetic or blended. Check each oil's product information against your model's requirements. Our electric diffusers should not be treated as universally compatible with all oil types.
Essential Oils and Fragrance Blends
Choose by fragrance preference and confirmed device compatibility, rather than promised therapeutic effects. Synthetic fragrance blends are not the same as pure essential oils. For botanical scent profiles, explore Lavender Pure Oil. For a composed fragrance, explore Wood Sage & Sea Salt Essential Oil.

FAQs
Can I use any pure or synthetic oil?
Do not assume universal compatibility. The upgraded VAUCLUSE Rose Gold and Silver models specify oil-based essential oils, not water-soluble oils. Check the exact formulation against your model's instructions.
Should I add water?
Not to the upgraded VAUCLUSE Rose Gold and Silver waterless nebulizing models. For an ultrasonic or other water-based machine, follow that manufacturer's instructions instead.
Do synthetic oils always last longer?
Do not assume every synthetic blend lasts longer than every pure essential oil. Fragrance duration depends on the formulation and how the compatible device is operated.
