Electric Aroma Burner – Cinnamon Oil

I bought an electric aroma burner a month ago, the salesperson stated that it has around 60 to 80 degree Celsius. However, I feel quite disappointed with it. The oil with water didn’t get boil and it took over 36 hours to evaporate. 36 hours is too long time to have an aromatherapy treatment, and in the deepest of my heart want to say “the oil with water disappear, because of low humidity ……”. I could smell the cinnamon scent hardly during the time I turned on the electric aroma burner. After 36 hours, when I clean up the burner, so much oil still remains on it, which is very different from the burning way of a candle burner.

I used to use a candle burner for my aromatherapy. And the effect of candle is quite good, the aroma can be diffused into the air nicely. The water mixed with water only get around 4 hours to evaporate. And the scent stays in the air in a good way. When I clean the candle burner, I won’t see some much oil remains on the plate.

I recommend people to use candle burner rather than the electric one, or u have to check the temperature of the electric burner clearly and make sure it have over 80 degree Celsius top let the oil burn in a good way.
