What Is the Teak Pura + Votivo Smart Fragrance Refill?

The Teak Pura + Votivo Smart Fragrance Refill is a custom-formulated vial designed exclusively for the Pura smart home diffuser. It blends rich, woody notes of teak with subtle warm undertones, creating a balanced yet distinctive scent that suits living rooms, offices, or bedrooms. Each refill lasts up to 60 days at average usage, and you can adjust intensity and schedule through the Pura app.

This refill is part of the broader Votivo collaboration with Pura, which includes a variety of scents such as the popular Red Currant Pura + Votivo Car Diffuser Cartridge for on-the-go freshness. The Teak refill pairs especially well with other Votivo products from the same scent family, like the Teak 10 oz. Signature Candle, which offers the same comforting aroma in a traditional wax candle format.

• Compatible with all Pura smart diffusers (original and latest models).
• Easy snap-in installation—no tools required.
• App-controlled intensity levels from 1–10.
• Approximately 60 days of continuous fragrance per vial.

Step-by-Step Installation Guide

Installing your Teak Pura refill is quick and straightforward. Follow these steps to get your diffuser running with minimal effort. Make sure your Pura diffuser is plugged in and powered on before starting.

Begin by removing the diffuser's top cover. Locate the existing vial holder (if you have a previous refill installed) and gently lift it out. Take your new Teak Pura refill out of its packaging; note that each vial comes with a protective cap. Twist off the cap and align the vial's nozzle with the receptacle inside the diffuser. Press down firmly until you hear a click—this indicates a secure connection. Replace the top cover, and you're ready to move to the app setup.

• Step 1: Unplug or turn off the diffuser for safety.
• Step 2: Remove the old vial (if present) by pulling straight up.
• Step 3: Remove the cap from the new Teak refill and insert nozzle-first into the diffuser.
• Step 4: Press down until it clicks into place, then replace the cover.
• Step 5: Plug in the diffuser and wait for the LED indicator to show it's connected.

Connecting to the Pura App for Full Control

The Pura app is your command center for the Teak refill. Download the Pura app from the App Store or Google Play, create an account, and follow the in-app pairing process. The diffuser will appear as a device if it's within Bluetooth and Wi-Fi range. Once paired, you can name your device (e.g., "Living Room Teak") and set a schedule.

Within the app, you'll find options to adjust the scent intensity from a gentle whisper (level 1) to a bold throw (level 10). You can also set daily on/off times, create custom schedules for different days, and even control multiple diffusers in different rooms. The Teak refill performs beautifully at mid-level intensity (4–6), providing a consistent yet non-overpowering presence.

• Tip: Set the diffuser to run 2–3 hours before you arrive home for an instant welcome scent.
• Use the 'Boost' feature to temporarily increase intensity for gatherings.
• The app also tracks remaining fragrance life so you know when to reorder.

Tips for Optimal Performance and Longevity

To get the most from your Teak Pura refill, placement matters. Position your diffuser on a stable, flat surface away from direct sunlight, heat sources, or drafts. An elevated spot (like a shelf or side table) helps the fragrance circulate more evenly. Avoid placing it near electronics or fabrics that might absorb the oil.

Clean the diffuser's internal nozzle every few months using a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol. This prevents clogs and ensures the oil atomizes correctly. For a larger scent presence, consider pairing the Teak diffuser experience with the Teak 10 oz. Signature Candle in the same room—the candle adds a warm, flickering ambiance that complements the diffuser's steady fragrance. If you enjoy variety, the Red Currant Pura + Votivo Car Diffuser Cartridge offers a similar high-quality aroma for your vehicle.

• Refill vial lasts about 60 days at 4 hours/day at medium intensity.
• Replace the vial when the app indicates low oil or when scent noticeably fades.
• Store unused vials upright in a cool, dark place to preserve freshness.

Now that you know how to install and use the Teak Pura + Votivo Smart Fragrance Refill, it's time to enjoy the warm, woody aroma it brings to your home. For those who love the scent, we also recommend exploring the Teak 10 oz. Signature Candle—it's a perfect companion for creating a layered fragrance experience.
