Valentine’s Day has come and gone, but Valentine’s Day inspired home fragrances hasn’t! When you think of this particular day you think of roses, flowers, chocolates and strawberries. The scents of these things can be found in wax melt form to provide romantic and fragrant smells for the home. Home of Honey Candle Co’s Strawberries & Cream Wax Melt falls into this category. It was gifted to me in two different wax melt forms, including a slab. So is it as good as it’s name sounds?
Packaging
Strawberries & Cream Wax Melt came in a small, white cardboard box with a clear window. This gives a sneaky peak of what the wax looks like. I like how this is packaged because it’s very simple but elegant and looks like its ready to be given as a gift.
How does it look?
This wax melt is in the form of a wax melt ‘slab’. Rectangular in shape, flat and in one block colour which is soft pink. Sat on top of this is an off white strawberry shaped piece of wax with a generous sprinkling or red glitter around it. Eye catching, very appealing and beautiful in look.
Fragrance
Sweet, fruity in a berry way mixed in with creamy vanilla. It’s a gorgeous scent that smells more like a fragrance for the body and skin rather than for the home.
In melt
Pretty wax melts always melt in such a fun way and this was no exception. It melted slowly and evenly. Seeing the solid strawberry shape sat on the top of liquid wax was a glorious sight. What was left was was a pale pink wax pool with red glitter dotted randomly in all around.
Strength & Longevity
I wasn’t too sure how strong this would be because the majority of fruit or food based scents aren’t powerhouses. Strawberries & Cream I assumed would be light but it was medium in strength. It started off light and got stronger, which surprised me. It was a noticeable scent, perfect strength and made my hallway smell amazing! Longevity was great. I had the same piece melting for hours and the fragrance and strength didn’t waiver.
Recommended?
From the name of this fragrance alone this is my type of scent. But looking at how stunning this wax melt slab was and the mouth watering scent it threw out, made me love it! It’s such a great piece of wax that ticks every box, I can’t recommend it enough!
