Pūrē Standard
- A non-alcohol base, which is unusual for a reed diffuser. Most reed diffusers carry their fragrance in alcohol or a petroleum solvent, which is where the sharp chemical hit on opening comes from. Barkly Basics use a non-alcohol base, so there is no solvent note to wait out.
- Flameless, which matters in a lot of rooms. Rentals, bedrooms, homes with small children or pets. A diffuser gives you continuous scent where a candle is simply a bad idea.
- The bottle genuinely refills. Glass, and the 1L refill is the same fragrance, so the bottle and reeds stay and only the oil is replaced. The refill itself comes in aluminium, which recycles indefinitely without losing quality.
- The refill base is water soluble and readily biodegradable. Non-hazardous and alcohol-free, both stated by Barkly Basics.
- Phthalate-free, and made in Melbourne. Both stated plainly by the brand.
- Where we would like more. Barkly Basics name the fragrance as phthalate-free but do not publish the carrier oil or a full ingredient breakdown.

Our Take
Scent without a flame, which is handy with small people or a forgetful streak. A non-alcohol base, so there is no solvent hit when you open it, and refillable glass.

Frequently asked
Does it contain alcohol?
No. Barkly Basics make it with a non-alcohol base, which is unusual for a reed diffuser. Most carry their fragrance in alcohol or a petroleum solvent, which is where the sharp chemical note on first opening comes from.
How does it work?
Black reed sticks sit in the fragrance oil and release a subtle, continuous citrus scent of lemongrass and kaffir lime, with no flame needed.
Can I refill it?
Yes. It is a refillable white glass bottle and Barkly Basics make a 1L diffuser oil refill, so the bottle and reeds are not disposable.
How do I keep the scent strong?
Flip the reeds every one to two weeks. Keep it out of reach of children and pets, and sit it somewhere it cannot be knocked over.
What size is it?
120ml. The bottle is 7cm high and 6.5cm wide, and it comes boxed at 9 x 9 x 21cm.
What is in it?
Phthalate-free fragrance oil on a non-alcohol base, made in Melbourne. Barkly Basics do not publish the carrier oil or a full ingredient breakdown.
