Crowded House Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Fragrance oil + Diffuser oil base. I've seen recommended (in parts) 1 to 3 all the way up to 2 to 1, depending on the grade and strength of the FO.Diffuser oil base can be DPG or isopropyl mystrate or a house blend of both, I suppose. The base has to be a low enough viscosity to allow it to be wicked up through the reeds, but heavy enough to keep the FO from simply evaporating. DPG has a reputation for being lesser as far as viscosity goes, but some FO's work just fine with it.Many FO companies offer a premade base+FO combination as well, which usually runs price-wise at slightly less than pure FO.
