Exceptional quality products

Exceptional quality products. Absolutely fell in love with the oud diffuser and the candle too. Communication has always been great with the company. I'm not planning to change IAM apothecary for anything else anytime soon. Thank you for the beautifully scented products.

Website was very easy to navigate which is always a big plus for me
My first order I went for a contemporary look candle which goes with our look in our lounge

STUNNING CANDLES

First of all, these candles are ABSOLUTELY DIVINE! Secondly, the customer service we experienced was remarkable. My sister has been raving about these candles for literal years but, unfortunately, we live in the US and didn't think shipping to our home address was an option. Adam proactively reached out and sorted shipping so it arrived in Texas a week after placing our order. I couldn't have asked for a better interaction and the surprise on my sister's face when she received the candle was priceless.

These are the best diffusers I have ever bought, and I don't buy from anywhere else any more. They last for so long, and smell so delicious!

What a find

What a find. Purchased 3 Diffusers and absolutely love them, each one fills the room with a wonderful fragrance. Received a free candle which was a nice surprise, and it smells delightful too. Will definitely be using IAMs from now on. Excellent quality and prompt delivery. Hazel

Hi Hazel,
Thank you for your review. We pride ourselves in the products we make and that our 100ml reed diffusers will last up to 6 months.
To get the most out of them remember to turn the reeds weekly to keep the scent flowing. Use 5 of the 10 reeds provided and then when the bottle is half empty use the other 5. There will also be 2 extra thick reeds in each box..
If the fragrance is not strong enough for you then please pop those in too and it will create a stronger aroma. However this will reduce the shelf life.
Have a great day
