I love seasonal scents. Now it’s Autumn, I enjoy experiencing woody, bakery and warming wax melts. But despite melting according to the season, some of the time I just melt what I fancy melting! One of my more Summery wax melts I’ve been using recently is Summer Fruits from Cosy Aromas ( formally Cosy Candles ).
Why did I buy this?
This is my second order from Cosy Aromas this year. I ordered a selection of small wax melts in a set called Family Favourites. These were fantastic in scent, strength and longevity and they totally won me over. So I made order number two including Summer Fruits along with a few other scents, to see what the rest of their range was like.
Packaging
Like a lot of wax I buy this comes in a lidded tub. Most wax pots I own come in two standard sizes/weights, which is between 20g and up to 50g. This whopper weighs in at 110g! Because of it’s size and weight, this is more like a small wax pie rather than a wax pot which makes this impressive.
How does it look?
I expected this to be a blood red coloured wax. Summer Fruits is orange in colour, the same shade of orange the flesh of a ripe mango is. One block colour, no glitter, no embedded chunks or swirls, very simple in appearance.
Fragrance
I could smell a juicy, sweet collection of berries from this wax melt. But there’s also a tropical twist in this scent, almost a mix of mango and peach scent. It reminded me of a packet of chewy sweets which contained a mix of flavours. Sweet and slightly tangy and totally mouthwatering!
In Melt
A small piece of Summer Fruits wax melt took very little time to warm and melt through evenly. The fragrance became stronger the longer the wax warmer was on. The wax pool became a lovely, summery orange which matched its tropical inspired scent perfectly.
Strength & Longevity
This wax melt was medium to strong in strength. It had been melted all day and afternoon for two days in my living room throwing out fragrance. With this melt being such a huge size you can imagine this would provide hours of fragrance. On Cosy’s website it suggests up to 100 hours of fragrance which I believe, as my slither took forever to wear out scent wise. So strength and longevity is very good even when using the smallest amount of wax.

The quality of the fragrance, wax and size is impressive. If you love fruity scents you will love this, and if you love sweetie type scents you will love this too. It’s well balanced because it’s not too sweet but sweet enough to smell heavenly! Summer Fruits isn’t just for Summer it’s good all year round fragrance. Grab yours from their website here for £5.99 and spread the berry love!
