A Forest-Inspired Diffuser of Timeless Beauty

Product Description

Step into a moment of quiet with the Dog Hornbeam Diffuser Set, handcrafted in the serene mountain town of Odai, Mie Prefecture, Japan. Designed using only natural materials, this set features 5 carefully selected dog hornbeam branches (or occasionally akasidae, a similar hornbeam species) that bring a touch of sculptural elegance to any room—each one unique, just like the forest it came from.

The diffuser is available in two scent profiles, both inspired by the healing practice of Japanese forest bathing (shinrin-yoku):

Fragrance of the Forest offers a bolder, more immersive aroma. This natural blend combines essential oils of cedar and cypress with aromatic distilled waters from kuromoji, tamushiba, kanakuginoki, sugi, and hinoki. The result is a refreshing, grounding scent that mimics the cool, invigorating air of a forest just after rainfall. The slightly yellow hue of the fragrance water is a natural result of its raw plant-based ingredients.

Forest Scent (Faint Fragrance) is a softer, subtler version, ideal for quieter moments and sensitive noses. It features the same essential oils but in a gentler concentration. The cloudy appearance of the fragrance water is a testament to its purity and absence of synthetic additives.

Each set includes:

  • 300ml of fragrance water (choose strong or faint)
  • 5 natural hornbeam branches (inushidae or akasidae, based on seasonal availability)
  • 2 diffuser sticks
  • 1 elegant, minimalist glass bottle
  • Carefully packaged in a gift-ready box

This diffuser doesn’t just freshen a room—it transforms it into a retreat. From its natural materials to its grounding aroma, it brings the forest closer, one breath at a time.

・The natural pigment from the branches may tint the fragrance water yellow or brown over time. This is a normal occurrence and does not affect the quality or performance of the product.

FAQs

All you need to know about Odai Home Diffusers.

What makes Odai essential oil diffusers unique?

Odai diffusers are handcrafted using natural materials sourced directly from the forests of Odai Town, Mie Prefecture—a UNESCO Eco Park. Paired with 100% natural essential oils extracted from local trees, each diffuser reflects the purity, craftsmanship, and environmental harmony of the region.

Are natural diffusers safe to use around children or pets?

Yes, as long as you use 100% natural essential oils and follow safety guidelines. Always keep diffusers out of reach of children and pets. Avoid direct skin contact or ingestion.

How should I care for my diffuser?

Keep your diffuser in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. If it’s made of wood, let it dry fully between uses and avoid washing it with water. You can switch scents, but it's best to dedicate each diffuser to one type of oil to preserve the aroma’s purity.

How are the essential oils and aromatic waters produced?

All essential oils and aromatic distilled waters are produced using a traditional steam distillation method, which gently extracts fragrance compounds without the use of chemicals or solvents. The raw materials—branches, leaves, and wood—are carefully selected and harvested by hand by the Miyagawa Forestry Association, based in Odai Town. This method preserves the purity and complexity of the natural forest aromas, resulting in high-quality, 100% natural scents sourced directly from one of Japan’s most pristine environments.

How long does the scent last when using the essential oil with a natural diffuser?

On average, the scent from the essential oil will gently diffuse for about 1.5 months when used with a natural, passive diffuser such as wood or unglazed ceramic. Longevity may vary depending on room temperature, ventilation, and the amount of oil applied, but regular use with a few drops at a time ensures a continuous, subtle aroma throughout the space.
