Odds are you've seen Vitruvi's gorgeous diffusers all over the Internet, used as everything from scent-styling solutions to functional home decor. The essential oil diffuser brand triumphs in creating an amazing-smelling product that scents your space instantly while looking beautiful. I tried Vitruvi's newest innovation, which is perfect for those who aren't ready to splurge on the brand's iconic Stone Diffuser but still want the same results.
The brand new Glow Diffuser launched on March 1 for a comparably affordable price of $65. The smaller diffuser comes in a cute, curved silhouette, reaching a little over seven inches tall. It won't take up too much space on a desk or bedside table but definitely packs a big punch with a 300-square-foot diffusing capacity.

As with all Vitruvi diffusers, the Glow version is extremely easy to use. Simply fill the well with water and add 20 to 30 drops of your favorite essential oil. The brand sells its own essential oils, so if you're new to the product, I recommend picking up the signature scent kit along with your diffuser. It comes with four essential oil blends perfect for different moods and vibes.
After adding in the scent of your choice (I opted for the grounding and comforting legacy blend), just put the top back on and start the diffuser. There are four- and eight-hour timer options as well as one button to turn the light on and off, making the controls extremely user-friendly. The oil diffuses immediately, filling your space with a gorgeous scent that permeates quickly and fully. It can feel a bit overwhelming at first, especially with my diffuser sitting on my desk right next to me, but soon enough the scent spread out evenly throughout my bedroom.
Where this diffuser really shines (literally) is its light option. Other Vitruvi diffusers have a thin band of light that adds to the product's appeal, but the Glow Diffuser takes things a step further. The entire cap of the diffuser shines with a warm, attractive light that feels comforting in my space, especially in a bedroom. Combine the eight-hour diffuser timer with the light option, and you have a functional and stylish night light suitable for anyone from kids to adults.
The lightweight feel, affordable price, and trendy design make this new diffuser a no-brainer for avid Vitruvi fans to those looking for their first diffuser for a new space. The durable BPA-free plastic composition weighs about one pound, making it easy to carry to and from the sink for filling and cleaning, which is the most inconvenient aspect of most diffusers, in my opinion. Because of the lower price tag and durable construction, this also acts as a more accessible option for kids' and teens' rooms. Along with the two timers, the diffuser automatically shuts off when the water runs out.
The one downside is the power cord, which can take away from the stylish, soothing ambiance. But, it's a small price to pay for a beautifully scented and lit room. I can't wait to add a calming lavender essential oil, set my eight-hour timer, turn on the night light, and get some sleep surrounded by a comforting scent and light with just one product.
