Paddywax LLC of Franklin, Tenn., is recalling about 2,100 Paddywax Fragrance Diffusers.
The label on the diffusers violates the Federal Hazardous Substances Act (FHSA) by omitting the presence of petroleum distillates, which pose an aspiration hazard if swallowed. No incidents or injuries have been reported.
The recall includes ECO and RELISH Paddywax diffusers sold in three fragrances. Fragrances include ECO Blood Orange with Bergamot, ECO Grapefruit with Coriander and RELISH Ocean Tide with Sea Salt. The diffusers were sold in a solid tan cylinder-shaped container measuring about 11-inches high by 2-3/4 inch diameter. The diffuser includes a green or blue glass vase and evaporating diffuser sticks. “Paddywax” and the fragrance name are printed on the front of the cylinder.
The difusers, manufactured in the U.S., were sold at small gift shops, grocery, pharmacy, plant nurseries and spas nationwide and online from January 2013, through April 2013, for about $28.
Consumers should immediately stop using the diffusers and move out of reach of children and pets. Contact Paddywax for instructions on returning unopened containers and disposal of opened containers to receive a replacement product.
Consumers may contact Paddywax toll-free at (888) 442-3088 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, or email at customer.service@paddywax.com.
