What Does African Storm Smell Like?

African Storm opens with a bright, herbaceous note, then softens into exotic baobab and jasmine over the warmth of white sandalwood. The scent reads fresh and floral rather than sweet, so it suits a lounge, an entrance hall or a bedroom. The smoked grey glass and gold collar look at home on a console, a desk or a bedside table.

How to Use Your African Storm Diffuser

African Storm 500ml Diffuser works without a flame or electricity. Place the reeds in the bottle, let them soak for a few hours, then turn them once a week to refresh the scent. Use fewer reeds in a small room and all of them in a large one. Keep the bottle away from direct sun, heaters and draughts, wipe any drips straight away to protect wood, and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
