Sourced & certified
Two woods. No two Lios alike.
Every device is cut from its own block — your Lio is genuinely one-of-one.
Olive wood is harvested only from trees that no longer bear fruit — wood a Mediterranean farmer would otherwise burn. Every Lio Plus rescues a piece of that history. It's the most sustainable wood on Earth, because it's wood that was already going to be lost.
The grain depends on the age of the tree, the soil, the season — no two Lios are ever the same. The one in your hand is genuinely one-of-one. Older trees give deeper, dramatic patterns; younger ones, softer cream. We hand-select every piece.

Sustainability: Second-life wood — saved from being burned
Certification: FSC-certified supply chain
Feel: Warm, light, fine grain · honey tones
Yours is unique: No two devices ever match
WalnutEuropean forestry · FSC-certified
Walnut is the heavyweight of fine woods — denser, darker, and the wood that gunsmiths and watchmakers reach for. Ours comes from European FSC-certified forestry only — the same chain-of-custody standard used by the world's most demanding makers.
Every Lio Pro is cut from its own block of European walnut. Because of how walnut grows, the grain on yours runs differently from every other one ever made. There is no second Lio Pro that looks like yours. Over the first weeks of use, the wood deepens in tone where your fingertips touch it — a slow, quiet story written by your own hand.

Sustainability: FSC-certified — every plank is traced to source
Feel: Heavier, dense, almost-black grain · warms with use
Yours is unique: One block per device · no two are alike

A family business · The Netherlands
Most days, Dante packs your order.
He’s the founder’s brother. We started Lio in our family home — and we’ve stayed small on purpose.
There’s no giant warehouse, no automated packing line, no robots shipping your order.
Lio is a small family business based in the Netherlands. Every product is produced and packed in the Netherlands by our family. Dante handles most of the packing by hand from our workshop.
Every weekday, we finish up, bring the day’s orders to the post office ourselves, and head home for dinner.

Independent Lab Analysis · 2026
We sent Lio to a lab. Here's what's actually in the air you breathe.
We had Lio Minty Magic tested at an independent Dutch laboratory. No marketing. Just chemistry.
How it was tested
✓
Independent Dutch laboratory
✓
Four full days of normal use, simulated in controlled conditions
✓
GC-MS analysis — the gold standard for identifying molecules in air
✓
Test repeated three times for accuracy
✓
Run on three different pipes and three different cores
What's in the air you breathe
🌿
17 natural compounds identified
🌿
All essential oil molecules — the same kind found in peppermint, eucalyptus, citrus peel, and pine
🌿
Used worldwide in food, drinks, and personal care for centuries
🌿
Menthol — one of the most extensively researched natural compounds in respiratory science
What Lio is NOT
✗
No smoke

No heat

No vapor

No nicotine

No tobacco

No battery

No combustion of any kind
You pull air through the pipe. The air picks up the natural aromatics from the core. That's what you taste. Same principle as smelling a cup of tea or walking past a eucalyptus tree.
Why we tested
·
Most rookalternatieven never get independently analyzed
·
We did — because if you're putting something to your lips 150 times a day, you have the right to know exactly what's in it

Straight answers
Not a vape. Not a cigarette. Just flavored air.
Your habit isn't the nicotine. It's the hand to mouth, the deep breath, the pause. Lio gives you that back — nothing else.

12 questions answered
Questions people ask before ordering.
Tap to reveal all answersTap to hide
Will it feel like what I'm used to?
Partly. The menthol cores give a real cool throat hit on the inhale — the physical sensation is there. What's not there is the nicotine kick. Think of it as the feeling without the substance.
Is this a vape?
No. A wooden aromatherapy diffuser. No battery, no coil, no liquid, no heating element. You breathe ordinary air through a wooden mouthpiece — the plant-oil core at the end gives it flavor and a cool menthol sensation. Nothing is heated, nothing is combusted.
Will this change my habit for me?
Honest answer: willpower isn't included in the box. Lio handles the hand-to-mouth, the deep breath, the pause — the behavioral half nothing else covers. You still bring the decision. Together, it gets much easier.
€39 — is it worth it?
Less than a month of packs. The wooden body is yours to keep forever — only the cores refill. Most people break even inside three weeks. After that, Lio is cheaper every single day than what it replaces.
What if it doesn't work for me?
Try it for 90 days. Use it the way it's meant to be used — every time you'd reach for your old habit. If the ritual doesn't land, full refund, used or not. No 'must be sealed' fine print, no restocking fee.
How long does one core last?
Around 3 days on average. The flavor is strongest the first day and gradually fades — when you can barely smell it before inhaling, swap it. The wooden body stays with you; only the core changes.
What's actually in the cores?
Medical-grade polyester fiber infused with food-safe plant essential oils — peppermint, cinnamon, mango, orange, depending on the variant. No synthetic aromas, no solvents, no propylene glycol. Third-party tested, every batch.
Can I use it on a plane or at work?
Yes. No smoke, no vapor, no smell, no electronics — nothing that sets off detectors or bothers the person next to you. Customers use it on flights, in offices, cinemas, in bed next to their kids. Nobody's ever asked one to stop.
I've read the core can fall out — true?
Early cores had this issue. The current design fixes it — slightly fray one end of the core before inserting and it holds firmly. 30-second trick we wish we'd communicated earlier. Every new order ships with instructions.
Are all the flavors mint-based?
The Starter Pack leans menthol-forward (Minty Magic, Peppery Mint, Cinnamon Spice) because those mimic the throat sensation best. The full range includes Ohh My Orange, Mango Passion, and rotating seasonal cores that are warm and fruity. Pick refills à la carte.
How fast does it arrive?
Shipped from the Netherlands. 2–3 working days across Europe, 4–8 days outside. Free worldwide, no minimum. Tracking link by email the moment it leaves the warehouse.
I've never smoked. Can I still use Lio?
Absolutely. Many customers use Lio just for the ritual — a mindful pause during work, a calming breath before bed, a fidget for anxious hands. No ex-smoker card required. It's an aromatherapy tool at its core.
We believe everyone deserves access to natural wellness tools that support their personal goals. That's why we're here, to provide high-quality aromatherapy devices for those seeking to change their habits, one breath at a time.
