An apparatus for manual transfer of a viscous fluid such as essential oil or wax comprises a tip having a depression to accommodate an amount of the viscous fluid and a brim to cause a break in a vapor trail when the amount of viscous fluid is being placed on a heated surface and becomes vaporized; a cap that fits over the tip to prevent unwanted transfer of any remaining viscous fluid to surroundings when the tool resting on a surface; and a handle to allow a user to hold the without contacting the tip.
