My Philips Humidifier diffuses little or no aroma

Published on 04 June 2025

The essential oils in the aroma box, of your Philips Humidifier, naturally diffuse the aroma at room temperature and may take some time to fully disperse. If you find it is not noticeable, please see the possible reasons below.

Different essential oils have different ingredients, so the intensity of the scent and the duration of time it takes to disperse may differ. Some essential oils may require more time to fully spread their aroma.

While used in a large room, the aroma may take longer to diffuse throughout the space, and it may be more noticeable while you are near the appliance.

When the room is very drafty, the aroma may be less noticeable. To reduce drafts, close the windows or doors.

The aroma may gradually fade away in the aroma box after using it for a while. Replace with a new pad and add two to three drops of essential oils for the best possible aroma diffuse result.
