How To Refill Your Pura Fragrances At Home

Pura offers a range of fragrances for its smart home diffusers, with refills available for purchase. The refills are designed for the Pura Smart Diffuser and allow users to refresh their space with their favourite scent. Each refill is 10ml and can be used to replenish the current fragrance or switch to a new one. While some users have attempted to refill their Pura bottles with non-Pura fragrances, this is not recommended due to safety concerns, as the flashpoint of the Pura oils is higher than traditional perfumes, and the heater in the diffuser is strong enough to ignite flammable materials if misused.

Refilling Pura bottles with perfume

Refilling a Pura bottle with perfume is possible but requires caution. Pura fragrances are designed with a higher flash point than traditional perfumes, particularly those with alcohol as an evaporative agent, which can be flammable. Therefore, it is important to be careful of fires, as the heater in the Pura device is strong enough to ignite materials if misused.

If you decide to refill your Pura bottle with perfume, it is recommended to use a new cotton wick to avoid mixed scents. The Pura app allows you to control and customise your scent schedule, swap between fragrances, and adjust the fragrance intensity from your smartphone.

To replace a low fragrance or refill your Pura bottle, follow these steps:

• Select the fragrance in your Pura app that you want to replace.
• Select the "Swap Fragrance" icon.
• Scan the QR code on the back of your new fragrance vial, or enter the three-digit code if scanning is unsuccessful.
• Select "Save and Continue" if the fragrance details are correct.
• Click "Continue" to finalise the process.

It is important to note that you should not unplug the diffuser during this process, as it must remain powered to stay connected.

Pura fragrances are designed to be safe and ethically sourced, avoiding harsh chemicals and ingredients that may be harmful to health or the environment. The Driftwood & Chamomile Refill Duo, for example, features calming notes of chamomile, driftwood, sandalwood, and vanilla bean, providing a peaceful atmosphere for your home.

Refilling with scented oils

A Pura user on Reddit has confirmed that they have successfully refilled their Pura bottle with scented oils, including a diffuser refill, without any problems. They reused floral scents with something sweet and only reused the bottle 2-3 times before tossing it.

Pura fragrances are designed to exclude harsh chemicals and ingredients that could be harmful to health or the environment. The company sources its fragrances ethically and sustainably.

To replace a low fragrance, follow these steps:

• Select the fragrance in your Pura app that you want to replace.
• Select the Swap Fragrance icon.
• Scan in your new fragrance by scanning the QR code on the back of the fragrance vial. If scanning is not working, you can manually enter the three-digit code on the back of the vial.
• Select Save and Continue if the details of the fragrance are correct.
• Click Continue, and you're done!

Using a new cotton wick

While it is possible to refill a Pura bottle with perfume, it is important to exercise caution due to the risk of fire. The flashpoint of the oils developed by Pura is higher than that of traditional perfumes, especially those containing alcohol as an evaporative agent. Therefore, using a new cotton wick is recommended when refilling with a different scent to avoid mixed fragrances.

When refilling your Pura fragrance, follow these steps:

• Purchase a new cotton wick specifically designed for use with fragrance diffusers. Ensure it is compatible with the Pura smart diffuser.
• Remove the old wick from your Pura bottle carefully. This may involve unscrewing or pulling out the wick, depending on the model.
• Clean the bottle thoroughly to eliminate any residual scent from the previous fragrance. This step is crucial to ensuring that your new fragrance is not contaminated.
• Insert the new cotton wick into the Pura bottle. Ensure it is secure and fits snugly in the bottle.
• Choose your desired fragrance. You can select from a variety of options, such as the Driftwood & Chamomile Refill Duo or the Canvas Refill Single. These fragrances are designed for the Pura Smart Home Fragrance Diffuser and offer a range of soothing and invigorating scents.
• Refill your Pura bottle with your chosen fragrance. Follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer for a safe and proper refill.
• Allow the wick to absorb the new fragrance for a few minutes before use.
• Control and customise your scent experience using the Pura app. You can adjust the scent intensity and create schedules to personalise your fragrance journey.

Remember to always exercise caution when handling fragrances, and avoid mixing highly flammable substances. The Pura diffuser's heater is strong enough to ignite certain materials if misused, so it is important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines and take the necessary precautions.

Safety concerns about flammability

Pura's fragrances are created with clean, high-quality ingredients and are safe to be used around children and pets. However, when it comes to refilling Pura fragrances, there are some safety concerns regarding flammability that users should be aware of.

The flashpoint of the oils developed by Pura is higher than that of traditional perfumes, particularly those containing alcohol as the evaporative agent. This means that the risk of ignition is lower with Pura's oils than with other perfumes. Nevertheless, it is important to exercise caution, as the heater in the Pura device is strong enough to ignite certain materials if misused.

When refilling a Pura bottle, it is crucial to avoid using highly flammable substances. Some users have reported successfully refilling their Pura bottles with scented oils without any issues. However, it is important to note that perfumes may have a lower flashpoint, increasing the risk of fire. Therefore, it is recommended to be cautious when experimenting with different substances for refilling.

To ensure safety, users should carefully consider the properties of the liquid they intend to use for refilling. Substances with a low flashpoint or those containing alcohol should be avoided. Additionally, it is recommended to use a new cotton wick when refilling with a different scent to prevent the mixing of fragrances. By taking these precautions, users can minimise the risk of fire and ensure a safe experience when refilling and using their Pura fragrances.
