Motivational posters lie. This one hangs from the mirror, reads "Hang in there it gets worse", and has been right more often than the poster with the kitten ever was.
Golden Patchouli wicks up through a wooden lid from an 8 ml glass bottle, with nothing to plug in or switch on. It is a joke that ends up in daily use — commuters, coworkers, pessimists: this is the one.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What actually releases the scent — the bottle or the lid?
A: The lid does the work: it is porous wood sitting against the oil, so it wicks and the scent leaves through it. The glass just holds the 8 ml.
Q: Is there a refill, or do I replace the whole thing?
A: There is no separate refill — the 8 ml in the bottle is what you get, and tipping it re-wets the lid until the oil is gone.
Q: What happens if it tips over?
A: A tightly closed bottle can swing and right itself without emptying, which is why the directions say to leave it hanging at all times.
Q: Where is the best place to hang a car diffuser?
A: The best spot is one that keeps it out of the driver's sightline entirely — a grab handle, a headrest post, or a mirror stem where local rules allow it.
Q: Is this a good funny gift for a coworker?
A: It is one of the better funny gifts for a coworker because it lives in the car, not on a desk where it has to be explained to management.
Q: Will one bottle last a whole road trip?
A: One 8 ml bottle will outlast any road trip — it is measured in weeks, not days, and a tip of the bottle brings it back mid-drive.
