Is Neom worth paying for

I’d love a nice reliable diffuser. Can anyone recommend one. I’ve seen the Neom ones but Amazon seem to do very similar ones for a lot less cost.
QVC are doing a TSV soon and I do t know whether to stump up know I can sent it back if I don’t like it. (Other shopping channels are available!)
Also the oils. Is it a case of buy the best you can or do cheaper oils give the same effect?

Many thanks x x

I tried Valentte recently and was impressed by the intensity and lovely scents. They do only last 8 weeks though. You can buy refills too. I was disappointed by the Aldi Lime and Mandarin one. Could barely smell it.

If you want to help a small business then Karen Timson Moon Palace diffuser still has faint scent after five months! Also Milano Cento is a good strength too. I bought one for my son's room.

I was given some nice ones from Marmalade. Not sure where you buy them as they were a gift.

Are you talking about electronic diffusers? I have a couple of Neom ones. One was a gift and I got the other in a charity shop. They are great but in all honesty do the same job as other cheaper ones. I think the oil is the important ingredient. The Neom oils certainly are lovely blends.

Hi there
Do you mean the electric diffusers that you charge up ? I was lucky to receive one a couple of years ago as a christmas present with some oils. Its a well made product and looks nice but i personally dont think they are worth the money. I did use it and the oil lasts a long time but i dont really feel i could smell it . I do have a big (ish) living room so not sure if thats the issue after i had used the oils i did try different oils from habitat which worked exactly the same. But overall i was abit meh about it... considering the price i personally feel you could get just as good for less price but just my personal thoughts. Off topic have you thought about plug in ones?? I recently bought the bath and body works plug for the uk ( i am a massive fan of the hand soaps and candles etc) and have been super impressed i can smell it all day anyone who visits always asks what that lovely smell is and so far in about 7 weeks of using it and i still have over half of the bottle left!

At a cost of $1.5 trillion, which will surely rise to $2.5 trillion, personally I think it could be a white elephant, though it does look a sustainable city.

I’ve got a Neon which was very much an impulse buy - cheaper does the same job

Thank you. I agree that the oils are maybe more important than the vessel!
Thank you x

I’ve just treated myself to a neom pod large one. They say only neom oils can be used, or the won’t cover the warranty if it breaks down, the oils are really expensive but smell lovely. I do have a zen diffuser- use any oil in that- just as good ( that was a present)
I do like the light on the neom, looks lovely on our hall table. Shop online, 20% off on some sites. Bought mine from a shop in Lancs- 20% off

I agree, the oils are the most important part. I have two Neom diffusers but use M&S oils as I actually find the Neom ones too strong!
