doTERRA; The Company
doTERRA was founded in May of 2008 and they have risen to be a leader in the industry. The people behind this company come for all types of backgrounds including business and healthcare. Fans love their oils, so branching out to one of their aromatherapy devices in the next logical step.
What Is A Diffuser?
Seasoned aromatherapy practitioners are familiar with these machines yet those out there who are just starting to dabble in this beneficial addition of a daily regimen may not be. So let’s do a quick overview before we talk about the actual doTERRA projects.
In short, a diffuser is a device that breaks up your favorite essential oils into particles that float through the air. You, as the user, breath them in, and reap the many benefits that particular scent has to offer. Some use water, some use the natural force of evaporation. They fall into these categories.
- Evaporation
- Heat
- Ultrasonic
- Nebulizer
Benefits of a Diffuser
When it comes to the practice of diffusing essential oils, well, those benefits are hard to beat.
Helps Boost Immunity
When we take time to breathe in a bit of peppermint and/or eucalyptus, you are giving your immune system a much needed upgrade. This is a great tool during cold and flu season or whenever your allergies start acting up.
Fights Congestion
On that same note, when you start coughing, diffusing some of those same oils we’ve mentioned could clear it up.
Pulls It Into Focus
Other scents, like Frankincense, have long been used to pull our attention to the task at hand.
Strengthens Memory
Some scents, specifically lavender and rosemary, have been shown to produce a significant increase in the memory of the subjects they were introduced to.
Promotes Emotional Health
When we are feeling depressed, certain oils like lemon can add an uplifting scent in the air and have an impact on our mood. There are also fragrances that can also calm you down when the anxiety monster comes calling.
Repels Insects
There are several scents that we can diffuse to keep pests away without adding any chemicals or toxins to the air we breathe.
Safer Than Candles
Diffusers fill your rooms with your favorite scents without the risk, which leads us to the next benefit.
Induces Sleep
A few drops of lavender oil into your diffuser should be able to lull you to sleep.
Purifies The Air
On top of all the benefits we’ve already listed, while you diffuse your scents you will be cleaning the air of any toxins or bacteria that might be invisible to the eye but not to our airways or to those of our loved ones.
How To Choose A Diffuser
The type of diffuser you might choose will solely depend on your personal preferences and needs. For example, if you work in an office that falls in between big and small then you need a diffuser that will fill the room with your scents but doesn’t overwhelm it.
Do you want to use heat? Are you going to have easy access to water? Will it come with instructions on how to use it? Is it organic? These are all questions you should be asking yourself while shopping for a diffuser.
What To Look For
Some of the most common things you should be looking for when it comes to the right diffuser for you are as follows:
Timers
Differs vary in their timing. Some come with options while others have a continuous run. They come with interval settings and can run for long periods of time or go through interruptions. It’s worth noting that the more options are the better.
Coverage Area
This goes back to the issue of room size I mentioned earlier. If you are in a large room you want to make sure your diffuser can fill it corner to corner.
Size
How big the actual diffuser is matters too, depending on where you plan to keep it. If you have shelves that are short then a tall diffuser wouldn’t be a good choice.
Options
There are diffusers that have lighting options, others that have an automatic shutoff feature, and more. So pay attention to the extras because they can be the thing that helps you decide.
Sound
Some diffusers emit a slow sound with their mist, but that wouldn’t be great if you are trying to sleep. Noiseless is the most popular choice.
Aesthetics
Even though we put this one last, it will be the first thing you will look for, just as it is the first thing I notice when shopping for diffusers. Does its appearance appeal to me? Will it fit with my decor? If you don’t want to look at it then you won’t use it.
Cautions
It isn’t recommended that you diffuse around certain pets and you should always check with a medical professional before diffusing around babies, children, women that are pregnant or nursing, and anyone suffering from illnesses or in a medication.

Now that we’ve covered what it is and what it does, let’s take a look at the type of diffusers this aromatherapy giant has to offer.
Petal

- Multifunctional: Humidifier
- Design: Small orb, white/pink
- Power Source: Average outlet
- Waterless Shut Off: No

This first diffuser has a deceiving name because it doesn’t look like a petal to me, but, it is small enough to fit discreetly and can project mist that reaches up to three hundred and thirty square feet. It comes with three-time settings, is user-friendly, and comes with only one light, which is soft and perfect for the bedroom. It is also multifunctional working as a cool mist humidifier.
Who Should Purchase This?
This diffuser is a good choice for anyone who is just starting out with aromatherapy. It’s simple to use and small, which makes it a good choice for someone who isn’t looking for anything big and flashy. Thirdly, this device is small enough to travel with.
What Are People Saying?
For the most part, consumers are happy with this diffuser. Some claim it helped them sleep and wasn’t overbearing with its scents. The light was considered nice and dim, which is a good thing when you are trying to sleep. There were a few reports of the product not working upon receipt.
Lotus
- Mode Settings: 1, 2, and 3-hour settings
- Light Options: Optional LED
- Multifunctional: Humidifier
- Design: White and slender
- Power Source: Average outlet

Next, we have a diffuser that couldn’t look much different from the one we just covered. Tall and svelte, this diffuser was created to take up little room on your desk at work or shelf at home yet powerful enough to emit a strong mist of your favorite aromas. It is quiet, easy to use and has a design with wide appeal.
Who Should Purchase This?
This diffuser is a great choice for beginners as well since it is easy to use. It’s also a good option for those that are fans of lotus flowers and the sleek design. The Lotus is perfect for someone who is using it in their bedroom since it is quiet.
What Are People Saying?
Purchasers of the Lotus are pretty happy with it, but they didn’t see that it stood out from any of the other diffusers too distinctly other than it’s design
Aroma Lite
- Mode Settings: Mist settings 1-3 microns
- Light Options: Optional LED
- Multifunctional: Humidifier
- Design: Small, compact, white/purpler
- Power Source: Average outlet
- Waterless Shut Off: Yes
- Travels Well: Yes
- Room Coverage: Not Available
Our third diffuser might seem like we are going in the opposite direction, but it is smaller than the other two we have covered thus far. It was designed that way so that fans of their oils had a diffuser for traveling. It is silent and works as a humidifier as well. Even though it is small in size the reservoir is rather large.
It works with real-time atomization technology, which creates a mist that is powerful and fine.
Who Should Purchase This?
Aroma Lite was created with the traveler in mind so it makes sense that the frequent traveler would be best to purchase this product. It’s also a good choice for a small office or yoga studio/area due to its compactness. This diffuser is also a good choice for someone searching for a device for their bedroom.
What Are People Saying?
Just like the Petal, the Aroma Lite has made a lot of people happy with their purchase. They are pleased with the mist output. They were also delighted with how compact it is
Lumo
- Mode Settings: Customizable output: 2 or 5 hrs continuous preset/10 hrs intermittent preset (5 min. on/5 min. off)

- Multifunctional: No
- Design: Square, maple wood base with white/light top

Our final diffuser by doTERRA is also small but is different in that it has a wood grain bottom with a white top that lights. It can run for up to five continuous hours and has a ten hour intermittent preset so you can let it run and stop throughout your day. It has more lighting color options than any of the other diffusers on our list, and it has the largest coverage area of them all.
Who Should Purchase This?
Anyone who is looking for a device that will fill a larger room would be happy to purchase this product. It’s also a great choice for anyone looking for a diffuser with more lighting than just basic white. Fans of maple wood finish will also be happy with this selection.
What Are People Saying?
Consumers who purchased this liked it overall, saying it was quiet and they enjoyed the ten-hour intermittent setting options. They were also pleased with the amount of vapor it emits.
Conclusion
When it comes to diffusers made by doTERRA, options are limited to these four, which isn’t a bad thing. I’ve always said that you should learn to do one thing and do it well, which is exactly what doTERRA set out to do. From the reviews, it seems that they are succeeding in their goals. The nice thing is there are several options that appeal to a wide range of aromatherapy fans.
