Brume vs. Oil Burners: Why Hotel Atomization Tech Leaves Open Flames in the Dust
Still heating oils over a tea light? Here’s why high-end spaces have moved on—and what they’re using instead.
Essential oil burners may feel nostalgic or “natural,” but they come with major flaws:
Inconsistent scent, dangerous heat, oil breakdown, and constant monitoring.
Brume brings hotel-grade scenting into the 21st century with cold-air atomization—no flame, no heat, no effort.
