Abstract

a wooden cap screwed onto the neck of the container;

a diffusing string or wick for diffusing the perfuming liquid,

wherein the wooden cap is provided with an axial central duct having a second diameter which communicates with a transverse duct provided in an upper cylindrical extension of the wooden cap, the diffusing string or wick passing through the transverse duct and protruding out of the wooden cap,

wherein the second diameter of the axial central duct is smaller than the first diameter of the internal cavity of the neck of the container,

wherein the dispenser is configured such that when the position of the container is inverted, the perfuming liquid reaches the diffusing string or wick by flowing through the axial central duct and through the transverse duct and the diffusing string or wick is impregnated in perfuming liquid; and
