Smooth. Grounded. Effortless.

The LIDO Reed Diffuser brings our best-selling sandalwood fragrance into a flameless, continuous format — designed to subtly scent your space from morning to night. A luxury sandalwood reed diffuser that extends fragrance beyond the candle, it delivers a steady, refined atmosphere without ever feeling overpowering.

Notes of sandalwood, musk, and amber create a warm, balanced scent that feels soft, inviting, and effortlessly at home. Unlike a candle, the diffuser works quietly in the background — consistent, low-maintenance, and always on.

Housed in a sleek vessel and presented in our signature embossed black backhouse box, the LIDO diffuser is designed to complement modern interiors while delivering a seamless, luxury unboxing experience. Whether you're layering it alongside your LIDO candle or discovering the scent for the first time, it becomes a quiet, lasting part of your daily environment.

There are so many places we love in Newport Beach, but Lido is always a favorite.

It’s the kind of place where you settle in with a glass of wine or a cocktail on the deck, live music playing as the boats pass by. Between boutique shopping in the village, classic films at the historic 1938 theater, and evenings spent at relaxed, stylish restaurants, Lido is a place you return to again and again.

Lido feels casually vibrant, elegant, and effortlessly local.

Smooth. Warm. Enduring.

APOLENA [sea salt]

key notes: sea salt, sage, ambrette seed

Our favorite mild fragrance showcases the beautiful complexities of sea notes. Composed of sea salt, sage, and ambrette seed, it evokes feelings of freedom and pleasure, like an enjoyable walk along Balboa Island on a beautiful summer morning.

COLONY [cassis]

key notes: cassis, bergamot, musk

Create a welcoming mood with this warm and sophisticated scent that begins with bergamot and cassis, developed over a white rose and musk. Perfect for a cocktail hour with friends or while relaxing with your favorite book (or social media site:)

GROVE [orange blossom]

key notes: orange blossom, jasmine, bergamot

Transport yourself to a grove of orange trees, with their tiny white flowers in bloom. This light but strong scent will take you there.

HARRIETS TREE [grapefruit]

key notes: grapefruit, peach, berries

A vibrant citrus fragrance that illustrates invigorating notes of tropical fruits, crisp citrus, and exotic greens. It is light and sweet, while still noticeable in your surrounding space.

JACK [pumpkin]

key notes: pumpkin, cinnamon, vanilla

A sophisticated fall fragrance with top notes of cinnamon and vanilla which intermingle with baked pumpkin, while graham cracker base notes add a creamy, toasty character. An ode to special times together as we begin the holiday season carving pumpkins into Jack-o'-lanterns.

LIDO [sandalwood]

key notes: sandalwood, musk, violet

This bestselling scent is warm and comforting, highlighting its creamy facets while balancing the sharpness of sandalwood paired with sweet violet and woodsy musk. Perfect for any occasion and any time of year.

LITTLE BRANCH [amber]

key notes: amber, sage, oakmoss

This captivating fragrance begins with hints of citrus and an infusion of sage that enhance the natural, earthy quality. Lavender adds a soft floral and herbal touch to the heart of this scent, while amber and oakmoss round out the base for a beautiful, deep character.

MARGARET [currant]

key notes: currant, musk, rhubarb

A sophisticated and playfully sweet scent with aspects of pink currant and rhubarb over a heart of white jasmine petals and musky base. A wonderful balance of notes will light up the room for any occasion.

MR. DOUGLAS [pine]

key notes: pine, cedarwood, fir

Our popular pine scented candle that makes you think “Christmas time”, with mild citrus top notes, earthy undercurrents of cedar and evergreen, and a woody, fir base. But for some, the scent of pine is a year-round fav, like taking a hike on your favorite pine tree lined trail.

PETALUMA [berry]

key notes: berry, pink peppercorn, rose petals

The tangy richness of freshly picked blackcurrant berries and lively accents of flowery rose petals create this light, floral, and feminine scent.

Love the look and the scent

The reed diffuser from Backhouse Candles is great addition to their lineup.
First of all, the aesthetic is effortlessly clean and chic. A major standout for me is the black scented reeds—switching from traditional wood-toned sticks to sleek black completely elevates the design.

As for the Lido scent, it’s absolutely gorgeous. It strikes the perfect balance between fresh and crisp and a subtle warmth. It diffuses evenly without being overwhelming.

If you're looking for a diffuser that acts as stylish decor while keeping your space smelling incredible, this one is a total win.

Lido Diffuser Has Me Hooked!

I’ve been buying candles and soaps from Backhouse for probably six years now, and I absolutely love everything she makes! I have her products in every one of my homes, and she even made the candles for my wedding, which made them that much more special to me. ❤️

She recently introduced me to her new Lido diffuser, and OMG it is to die for! My house smells absolutely AMAZING. 😍 I cannot wait until I can buy a bunch more because I already know I’m going to want them everywhere!

I’m so happy to see Backhouse continuing to grow and expand. After being a loyal customer for so many years and even having her be a small part of such a special day in my life it makes me so happy to see her introducing new products and doing so well.

Keep those Lido diffusers coming because I am officially hooked! 🕯️✨❤️
