CULTI Milano Home Fragrances and Candles

CULTI Milano room diffusers use a natural diffusion system involving sticks, also known as reed sticks, inserted into the bottle containing the fragrance. The sticks absorb the scented liquid and gradually release it into the air, allowing rooms to be scented continuously, without the use of electricity, flames or electronic devices. The intensity of the scent depends on several factors: the composition of the fragrance, the capacity of the bottle, the number and condition of the reeds, and the temperature and ventilation of the room. As well as their olfactory function, CULTI Milano diffusers are genuine pieces of interior décor.

The lifespan of a CULTI Milano diffuser depends mainly on the amount of fragrance contained in the bottle and the conditions of the room in which it is used.According to the guidelines published by CULTI Milano, the lifespan is as follows:100 ml: approximately 1½ months.250 ml: approximately 3 months.500 ml: approximately 4 months.1000 ml: approximately 6 months.2700 ml: approximately 9 months.4300 ml: approximately 12 months.These figures are approximate and may vary depending on temperature, exposure to sunlight, air circulation and how often the sticks are turned upside down.To ensure a consistent shelf life, it is advisable to avoid placing the product near radiators, very sunny windows or sources of heat.

To achieve even diffusion, it is important to choose a diffuser that is proportionate to the size of the room.CULTI Milano provides the following guidelines:100 ml: rooms of approximately 5 m².250 ml: rooms of approximately 10 m².500 ml: rooms of approximately 20 m².1000 ml: rooms of approximately 30 m².2700 ml: rooms of approximately 40 m².4300 ml: rooms of approximately 40 m².These are general guidelines, not strict limits: the product descriptions for individual CULTI Milano products may specify wider size ranges.For a small hallway, bathroom or study, a compact size may be sufficient, whilst a large living room or open-plan space may require a larger diffuser.In complex layouts, placing several diffusers in different locations can help create a more even scent distribution than using a single, very large bottle.

The positioning of the diffuser affects both the perceived intensity and the distribution of the fragrance.CULTI Milano recommends placing the diffuser in a thoroughfare or in an area with moderate air circulation, to help the scent spread.A piece of furniture in the hall, a console table in the living room, or a spot along a passageway between rooms can all be good options.It is best to avoid:Direct and prolonged exposure to sunlight.Placement near radiators and other sources of heat.Very strong draughts.Delicate surfaces not protected from any liquid drips.From an interior design perspective, the diffuser can be showcased as a small decorative item, placed alongside books, ceramics or other accessories, without hindering the diffusion of the fragrance.

The reeds in CULTI Milano diffusers can be turned upside down from time to time to revitalise the diffusion of the fragrance and adjust its perceived intensity.There is no single ideal frequency that applies to all rooms: the result depends on the fragrance, the temperature, the ventilation and personal preferences.If the scent becomes less noticeable, you can gently turn the sticks upside down, following the specific instructions for the product.It is important to remember that turning the sticks too frequently can cause the fragrance to run out more quickly.When doing so, it is advisable to protect surfaces, as the scented liquid may damage certain materials or finishes.

CULTI Milano fragrances are distinguished by their varied olfactory compositions, which evoke fresh, floral, aromatic or enveloping atmospheres.Among the main fragrance families featured in the brand’s collections are:Citrus: fresh, lively and energising. ARAMARA, with notes of bitter orange and bergamot, is a prime example.Aromatic: invigorating and refreshing. This includes fragrances such as THÉ and MAREMINERALE.Floral: elegant, delicate or intense. Representative fragrances include TESSUTO, LINFA and ODE ROSAE.Woody: warm, comforting and characterised by deep notes. This includes MOUNTAIN, AQQUA and MEDITERRANEA.Oriental: intense, enveloping and full of personality. Examples include FUOCO and SUPREME AMBER.Fruity: characterised by fruity accords, sometimes accompanied by floral or woody notes. The range includes FICUM BLU and ERA.The classification may vary depending on the collection and the new fragrances introduced by the brand.To choose the most suitable fragrance, as well as considering the olfactory family, it is helpful to be familiar with the individual notes in the composition.

CULTI Milano has published a guide to the intensity of its fragrances, which helps customers identify the scent best suited to their personal preferences.Among the most intense compositions are:FUOCO: ranked first in the official list.'OFICUS: characterised by high intensity.ERA: a fragrance with a distinct olfactory presence.TERRA and SUPREME AMBER: other compositions ranked towards the top of the scale.Among the most delicate fragrances are:TESSUTO: the most delicate on the official scale consulted.MAREMINERALE: a fresh and subtle fragrance.LINFA: a composition with a lighter presence.ARAMARA and THÉ, on the other hand, occupy intermediate positions on the scale published by CULTI Milano.The perception of intensity remains subjective: the size of the diffuser, ventilation, temperature and individual sensitivity can all affect the result.

When choosing a home fragrance, you should take into account the room’s purpose, its size and the atmosphere you wish to create.Hallway: a fresh, distinctive fragrance, such as ARAMARA or MAREMINERALE, can help create a welcoming first impression.Living room: THÉ, with its aromatic notes, complements contemporary interiors and spaces designed for socialising. Those who prefer a warmer atmosphere might consider a woody fragrance.Kitchen: fresh, citrusy or aromatic compositions, such as ARAMARA and THÉ, can be pleasant, though it is best to avoid an overly intense scent in areas used for preparing and eating food.Bedroom: more subtle fragrances, such as TESSUTO or LINFA, can be an interesting choice for those seeking a delicate atmosphere.Study and home office: a fresh, aromatic scent such as THÉ can complement a space dedicated to concentration and work.Bathroom: MAREMINERALE or other fresh scents can contribute to a feeling of cleanliness and lightness.These pairings are style suggestions, not hard and fast rules. The ideal fragrance is one that reflects the taste of those who use the space on a daily basis.

Yes. CULTI Milano offers refills for numerous fragrances in its collections.Refills allow you to reuse the original bottle, preserving its aesthetic appeal and extending its useful life.For correct use, we recommend:Choose a CULTI Milano refill that is compatible with your chosen fragrance.Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for refilling.Avoid mixing different fragrances without having cleaned the container properly.Use new reeds when necessary, as those that are already saturated may not ensure optimal diffusion.The availability of refills varies depending on the fragrances and collections.

The burn time of a CULTI Milano scented candle depends on the weight of the wax, the size and how it is used.According to the manufacturer’s guidelines:270 g: approximately 60 hours.2500 g: approximately 200 hours.4,000 g: approximately 400 hours.5,700 g: approximately 600 hours.The actual burning time may vary depending on burning conditions, the length of the wick and the presence of draughts.Proper care ensures even burning and helps to bring out the fragrance to its fullest during use.

To use a CULTI Milano candle correctly, it is important to follow a few simple guidelines.Each time you light the candle, it is advisable to allow the wax to melt evenly right to the edges of the container, thus preventing a hollow from forming in the centre.The candle should not be left burning for more than four consecutive hours.It is also important to:Place it on a stable, heat-resistant surface.Keep it away from curtains, fabrics and flammable materials.Avoid draughts, which could cause the flame to flicker.Do not move it whilst the wax is liquid or the container is hot.Never leave it burning unattended.Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.It is best to use a candle snuffer to extinguish the flame, avoiding blowing directly on the flame where possible.

Yes. CULTI Milano recommends keeping the wick to a length of around 4–5 millimetres.An excessively long wick can cause an uneven flame, increase smoke production and compromise the quality of combustion.Before lighting the candle each time, whilst it is completely cold, it is advisable to check the wick, trim it if necessary and remove any charred residue.This simple step helps to maintain a more even flame and ensures the wax burns evenly.
