In a device for holding a wick for an liquid oil lamp, in a bottle, it is known to have a stem with a
vertical hole varying in size such that an appropriate wick, used to draw up the liquid oil, can be
threaded through the vertical hole, such that the wick is held in place because of the friction which is
present between the wick and the wall of the vertical hole. This device is known to have a flared top
with a larger diameter than the bottle neck opening such that flared top prevents the device from falling
into the bottle. In this invention, a groove is made in the bottom of the stem such that a non-reactive
flexible washer of an appropriate thickness and diameter can be installed and retained. The device, with
this washer installed in the groove, will form a seal between both the inside of the groove and with the
inside of the bottle neck opening. Also in this invention, a channel is made in the flared top. This
enables a fragranced oil to be placed in the channel, via a dropper and/or pipette.
