Upper Fifth Diffuser

Navy box and a glass bottle with a spray of reeds, ready for the shelf.

This clear glass reed diffuser is by Ralph Lauren. Scented objects for the home have a long history, from burning resins and aromatic woods to modern oils designed to work quietly at room temperature. Cone-shaped glass bottle filled with pale amber liquid, closed by a black ring and carrying a spray of slim reeds. The navy box next to it has gold trim and small gold lettering on its face, naming the scent.

A tidy little gift that arrives with its own box and bouquet.
