A new kind of aroma diffuser that uses neither electricity nor batteries. The heat of a single candle creates a gentle breeze that carries scent through the room. Quiet in form, made of glass and aluminum — when the flame is lit, light and shadow appear.

Lei = 0 香りで気持ちを一度リセットし 新たに始まるひとときの時間。 風が花々や草木をゆらすように 心と体をそっと再起動するための装置。 Lei = レイ 美しい花々や草木を束ね、誰かを思い 時間をかけて作られる香りの輪。 古来より伝わる自然への敬意 祝福と感謝を届ける神聖な様式。 大切な空間にやさしい風がはこぶもの。 小さな儀式のように、明かりを灯して お気に入りの香りで部屋を満たしていく。

Lei Non Electric Aroma Diffuser

A sculptural scent object

Powered by nothing but the heat of a candle, it creates a gentle flow of air. The light flickers, shadows deepen, and in between, the scent quietly drifts.

Behind the design

Why was the battery-free aroma diffuser created?

A story born from a single flame
Design statement A story born from a single flame The world's most poetic aroma diffuser — powered by nothing but a flame
A story born from a single flame

“The flicker of a single candle, the breeze it stirs, the scent that breeze carries — and the richness of that time.” Lei is the world's most poetic aroma diffuser: instead of using a power outlet, it generates its own electricity from the heat of a candle. Like the fires people have gathered around since ancient times, it sits naturally between people wherever they come together, welcoming them and inviting them to slow down and enjoy the time and space unfolding before them. Made from materials that can be recycled, Lei turns the heat of a candle into electricity to create a gentle breeze, which carries the evaporating scent into the room. Its minimal form is designed first and foremost to move the heart, with cordless mobility and easy care. Both as an entirely new, self-contained home appliance that needs no outlet and as a product in its own right, Lei creates a new kind of value.

Use it anywhere. Scent, quietly
Function Use it anywhere. Scent, quietly No cords. Easy care. Anywhere you go.
Use it anywhere. Scent, quietly

Compared with ordinary aroma diffusers, Lei's advantages are that it is cordless and easy to care for. Without a cord, it can be used almost anywhere — the living room or bedroom, the bathroom, even outdoors — and carried and set down wherever you like. Simply place aroma oil in the tray; refilling and cleaning are easy. It is also designed to let you enjoy the true character of a scent while using as little oil as possible. Many diffusers use so much heat that the intended scent is lost; Lei uses minimal heat to release the fragrance slowly, preserving its quality while keeping precious oil from running out quickly. The aluminum base gives it a low center of gravity to keep the candle from tipping over, and the glass cylinder makes it impossible to touch the flame, so it can be used safely.

Three materials, made to return to the earth
Impact Three materials, made to return to the earth Aluminum, rare earths, glass — all recyclable
Three materials, made to return to the earth

Out of care for the environment, we use only three materials: aluminum, rare earths and glass. The packaging is recyclable too, so even after the product has served its purpose, everything can return as a resource. What Lei proposes is a set of values that will become standard in a near future beyond materialism. More than the simple facts of watching a flame or feeling scent and breeze, what matters is enjoying those phenomena and sensing the poetry hidden in time and space. Rather than chasing immediate function or convenience, Lei embodies a sensitivity to the space beyond the physical.
