There’s so many wax melts available on the high street, how does anyone choose which ones to buy? The most important thing for me is the fragrance, and is it something I would probably enjoy melting. But what will drag me in first is how they look or are packaged. Crackle Wick Wax Melts from Home Bargains is my most recent wax melt purchase. Each one is 79p and comes in a variety of different sets of fragrances. So what are they like?

Packaging
These wax melts come in a clear, plastic casing. Label on one side showing you the scents of the wax and the other is clear so you can see the wax. This type of packaging makes it easy to store wax melts, keep them in tact and safe.
The wax itself
Crackle Wick Wax Melts come in three different fragrances. The wax comes in one 2 segmented wax melt snap bar for each fragrance with each duo coloured differently to reflect the fragrance. The colours match the label on the front too. All block colours, plain, no added sparkle or anything embedded into it.

Fragrances
I bought two Crackle Wick Wax Melts. One contains Fresh Vanilla Pod, Rich Toffee and Sweet Biscuit (Coffee Shop). The other Soft Delights, Light Denim and Cosy Wool (Cosy Comforts). The trio including Fresh Vanilla Pod are definitely comforting, bakery like scents. Sweet, sugary, buttery, basically everything that you would think of when you see the fragrance names. The trio containing Soft Delights is the polar opposite. Fresh, clean, almost laundry like with a hint of floral. Both smell, from their casings, really good and what I would hope for from what their names are.

First impressions?
So far so good. Affordably priced, nicely packaged and a decent amount of wax (88g in total in each). Having three different fragrances is a good idea, which you can mix up to create your own bespoke scent. Overall, my first impressions are I like these. But how they perform is the important part, so let’s see if they fully deliver!
