There are two things I have a fondness for. One is coffee and the other is wax melts. Strangely, I’ve never thought about combining the two together…until now! A few months ago, I won a small competition in UK wax vendor Glow’s Facebook group, and I received a selection of coffee inspired scented wax melt pots. Now the weather is colder, the days are gettering darker quicker, and I want to hermit more, I thought this was the ideal time to start melting these. So, what scents did I get?
Fresh Coffee
This smells like a fresh made cup of coffee with a small amount of sugar added, finished off with a bit of cream. It’s the slight sweetness that makes this fragrance enjoyable and softer than what I expected and it’s really good, and still remains aromatic.
Coffee Cream
Smells similar to the Irish cream drink but with a little more warming spices in it, such as nutmeg. This is a mouthwatering fragrance which I genuinely can’t stop sniffing!
Cafe Latte
This is the little sister of Coffee Cream scent wise. The only difference is when I smell them side by side Coffee Cream definitely has that whiff of alcohol in it and spices and Cafe Latte doesn’t.
Choca Mocha
Chocolate and coffee. That’s what I get with this one. But more hot chocolate than just a bar of chocolate. Despite not being a fan of this combo in real life chocolate form it, smells great.
Caramel Vanilla Latte
Caramel Vanilla Latte has a slightly burnt sugar/caramel type undertone to it on top of the creamy coffee scent. If you love the idea of a slightly sugary, full of depth coffee fragrance this would go down well.
Pumpkin Spiced Latte
This has got to be the standout scent in this set. It’s so different from the others and screams Autumn thanks to its bold, spicy notes. I would say this smells the least like coffee but more spicy, pumpkin which is sweet (not too much!) and very inviting.
Which one is my favourite?
I would probably say Coffee Cream. These are all great scents but for some reason this one catches my nose the most. All of these are beautifully fragranced. If the idea of coffee scented wax melts makes you feel unsure (like it did with me) please don’t! These all smell amazing. And if you naturally love coffee and how it smells you will adore these pieces.
Recommended?
Glow never fails me when it comes to their wax. Whatever piece I receive, whatever the scent is, they have always been fantastic! And I have to say, I’m won over by this small but might box of fragrant wax goodies. I would 110% recommend trying out any Glow waxy pieces but also their coffee inspired ones too. And guess what’s currently available in the cutest coffee bean shapes EVER!? Caramel Vanilla Latte and Coffee Cream. A 4 pack of coffee bean shaped wax melts costs £2.50. Grab yours here now and well-done purchasing, you will love them!
