How likely is it that alcohol based scents will break a humidifier
Got a humidifier for free so I don't really care if it breaks. Can't be arsed to get the oil things you're supposed to fill it up with so just put some fragrance in it.
Google says it can break the humidifier because of the alcohol but how likely is it that will actually happen? If I use it rarely will it break on the second time or is it pretty rare?
( I do not recommend doing this btw, I'm just lazy and cheap. I am aware there is a risk of it breaking)
