A Guide to Maison Berger Fragrance Lamps
Our Maison Berger fragrance lamps have been a staple of our store for many years, and for good reason. These hardworking lamps help eliminate pesky or lingering odours in your home while beautifully fragrancing your space. However, we often get questions in store about how to use them, as they are quite a unique item. This post introduces you to the world of fragrance lamps, including how to use them, what lamps and fragrances we offer, and how to clean them.
What Is a Fragrance Lamp?
Fragrance lamps, also known as catalytic lamps, are decorative and refillable devices used to scent a room and help neutralise odours. They work through a catalytic burner system, using Maison Berger lamp fragrance to diffuse scent into the room.
The original fragrance lamp was invented by Maison Berger founder Maurice Berger in 1898, when he was working as a French pharmaceutical dispenser.

It takes just a few simple steps to get your Lampe Berger up and running.
1.
Fill your Lampe Berger with Maison Berger home fragrance using the funnel.
2.
Insert the burner into the Lampe Berger, put the stopper on and wait 20 minutes for the burner and wick to soak up the home fragrance.
3.
Light the burner and wait 2 minutes.
4.
Once the flame has gone down, blow it out.
5.
Place the safety mounting on top and let your Lampe Berger perfume your home.
6.
Remove the safety mounting, place the stopper back on to stop the diffusion, then replace the mounting.
If you are unsure about any steps, please ask a member of staff. We would be more than happy to demonstrate it for you.
Maison Berger Scent Families
Maison Berger labels its fragrances with coloured accents to help identify the scent family. Here is a handy guide:
Maison Berger also creates collaboration fragrances with French brands such as Lolita Lempicka and Starck. Our Lolita range is especially popular, with Lolita Sweet being a recent favourite.
Maison Berger Gift Sets
All our lamps are arranged by colour too, making it easy to find a style you will like. Some lamps include a complimentary 250ml fragrance, which is great for testing your new lamp. Maison Berger also offers lovely gift sets starting at £39.00, making them an affordable first fragrance lamp.

Keeping your fragrance lamp clean helps your burner last longer and prevents scents from becoming muddied by residue. Maison Berger offers a purifying alcohol called Air Pur / So Neutral. Use it in the same way as a fragrance, but only fill your lamp with around an inch of liquid.
We recommend using neutral when changing between fragrances, diluting strong scents, or once a month for upkeep. When cleaned properly, your wick should last around 200 uses.
