Where Should I Keep Fragrance Oil to Protect Wood, Marble and Fabrics?
SOSA · Care
Fragrance oil and your finishes
Concentrated fragrance oil can mark polished wood, natural stone and fabric if it is spilled. A few habits avoid that.

The short answer
Refill machines over a tray or towel, never directly above marble, wood or upholstery. Wipe any drip at once. Store bottles capped and upright in a cool cupboard, out of sun and heat. Place each machine where its mist is not aimed at fabric or a polished surface close by.
Habits
Every refill
- Refill over a tray. Or a folded towel, on a counter you can wipe.
- Wipe drips at once. With a dry cloth; then clean as you would for that surface.
- Cap and store upright. In a cool cupboard, away from sun and heat.
Placement
Around the machine
- Not facing fabric. Keep curtains and upholstery out of the mist’s direct path.
- Not on natural stone. Use a coaster or mat under a freestanding Vaayu on marble or wood.
- Away from heat. Not beside lamps, heaters or hobs.

Questions
Before you choose
Will the mist mark my walls?
Both machines are waterless and leave no water residue, but keep them away from surfaces right in front of the nozzle.
I spilled oil on marble. What do I do?
Blot it immediately with a dry cloth, then follow your stone’s cleaning advice. Natural stone is porous, so speed matters.
Where should I keep spare bottles?
Capped, upright, in a cool cupboard away from children, sun and heat.
What should I send you for a recommendation?
Your floor plan or a rough sketch, the size of each room, ceiling height, which doors stay closed, where the sockets are and the scents you like. Photos help too.
