LifelinesPen Diffuser, Crisp Mountain Air - 1mm Black Ballpoint Pen with Scented Essential Oil Blends – Aromatherapy Diffuser & Sensory Immersion Diffuse Aroma As You Write

Saw this in a college bookstore as part of a journal set, and came here to find just the pen. Ordered the blue and purple - my daughter who loves writing promptly stole the blue one from me and I’ve been using the purple daily.There are four little chambers for the scents and one was about 1/2 gone when it arrived but no leaking in the package I could see. There was a note about putting it back in the carrying case if you take it on a plane because it could leak with the pressure changes so I left it at home for a recent trip.I was surprised it actually writes smoothly and well. It came with an ink refill which meant I had to save the case but that tells me they think the scent it will last a long time. I don’t see a way to refill the scent so that’s probably their way of letting you get your money’s worth.I love a bold pen - my favorite is Ink Joy RT7 with a soft cover Cambridge spiral notebook (feels sort of velvety but flexible). This one is just a little fatter and no taper for your hand, so the feel is close but not quite as good as the Ink Joys. Also wish it came in blue ink.Been using for a few months and fragrance not noticeably lower, although I don’t usually even bother opening one of the vents. I can’t really smell it when it’s on the table even with the vents open I can smell it with them closed and up close. I tend to press the plastic top of the pen against my lips while I am deep and thought and smell it that way. Very nice in the middle of winter in Michigan and thinking about planting flowers and warmer times.I am left handed - like many others I write in such a way that my hand goes immediately over what I just wrote. I started using the ink joy because it’s smudged less than others, but this gets on my hand even less! I call that a huge win for lefties - I’d give it 4.5 stars for the pen alone (ink could be just a tad darker and barrel just a little more tapered for holding), and 5 stars overall for the added scent.I work from home and have ADHD. I love aromatherapy but air fresheners you don’t smell after a while, diffusers, you have to refill, and I don’t want the moisture/humidify around a computer (my screens take up most of the desk). I had a wax warmer on a smart plug so I didn’t forget to shut it off but those get intense quickly and I’m still worried about the cats knocking it over (I spilled one once on carpet). Candles I’d definitely forget to blow out and, cats. This isn’t strong enough I’d think it would bother a fragrance-sensitive office mate. Good compromise between the options and pretty good pen to boot.

These pens are wonderful!! They scents can be smelled whip you are writing and they are very enjoyable! The pen writes very smoothly and never skips, great quality! I love that they each come with a refill also!

Update:Lifelines reached out to me immediately about the issues I had with the pens and they were very kind and understanding. Wonderful costumer service and all around just really compassionate and a great experience. They sent me a replacement pen and a journal for the issues. Both are just lovely! I really did love the pens from the start. They feel and write beautifully. I like that for little sketches I can get great variations in the darkness and solidity of the ink i can't really get from other pens. The feel of the grip is so comfortable and the scent is so relaxing and wonderfully soothing. Very calming and the journal is such a unique, really neat experience! Love the textures and interactive quality to it. Really amazing products, I would completely recommend to anyone! Great products and great seller! Thank you so much!Original comment:I ordered three different scents. And while they are nice, smell lovely and are relaxing for the most part and I like the fact that they came with a tube for safety storage, two out of the three pens had previously been opened before arriving and were missing the replacement ink cartridges. Other than that they seem really nice. They are very comfortable to write or draw with and a relaxing use experience. It's just a shame they were tampered with and thus will not last as long now. I don't know how how long the single ink cartridge will survive, but hopefully it will be a while. Also, one of the scents on one of the pens contains orange which I am allergic to but no where in the literature does it explain which scent it is or if its all four. Thus I can't use that pen which is a shame. I wish the ingredients were more clearly explained. Otherwise very nice though.

READ TO END.Thought this was going to give off an orange scent with no trouble but not so. You see, when it arrived and I first opened the box it had a rich orange scent. That faded on day one and now, even with all vents open, it still doesn't give off the beautiful orange scent I bought it for. You have to put it up to your nose to catch the smell.Maybe I misunderstood and assumed one would smell the orange scent upon using the pen to write without having to literally put it up to your nose to smell it.One last thing, the ink is faded black not rich but ok and smooth to write.UPDATE: THINK MY SINUSES WERE STUFFED BEFORE AS I NOW SMELL THE DELICIOUS ORANGE AROMA, SO GOOD AHHHH.I am a happy customer. I will definitely buy more of these fragrant pens. The orange smells yummy!.

I got these pens for work to help me better regulate there and I am sooo excited to use them. They just came in and the scent is amazing (I got the in-bloom and the walk in the woods). Important to note though: the pens still smell when the notches are closed (though i’m totally fine with that). The pen is also super comfortable to write with and the ink is great. ALSO I just realized it was made by melissa bernstein of melissa & doug! i loved their toys growing up and think its totally full circle using her pens now. these pens are TOTALLY a life changer if you have sensory seeking needs. I never give reviews but these are amazing.
