  • Strawberry Melts Rhubarb Rose Dove Wax Melts

    Wax melts are an incredibly versatile form of home fragrance. They come in different sizes, shapes, fragrances and price points. There is always some form of wax that will fit everyone’s fragrance need guaranteed! In the UK we are lucky to have lots of small wax melt companies who produce beautifully scented wax pieces, including Strawberry’s Wax Creations (formally called Strawberry Wax Melts). One of my recent wax melts I’ve used from this small business is called Rhubarb Rose Dove,which cost £2.50 for a pack o 3 wax melts.

    Why did I buy this?

    I chose this because I’ve had Rhubarb Rose and Dove separately in wax melts in the past. Both smelt gorgeous and I thought the two combined scent wise should be a winner!

    How do these look?

    These melts came in a pack of three. They are a good size with one being perfect to use in a wax warmer. Each wax melt is shaped as flower. They aren’t identical in colour but similar, with different shades of pink and purple running through each.

    Fragrance

    This is a fruity, uplifting scent with a floral rose element to it. It’s also has a hint of being clean and fresh in a bar of soap kind of way (literally Dove the soap bar scent!). The floral, fruit and clean combo gives an interesting and beautiful scent which most people would adore.

    In Melt

    These took a little time to melt because they are small but quite chunky. The flower slowly drowned and turned into a very pale lilac shimmering molten pool which was very pretty.

    Strength & Longevity

    I would describe the strength of Rhubarb Rose Dove wax melt as being medium to strong. This was on melt for over 3 days and was still kicking out an obvious fragrance. By the time I changed it it was purely because I wanted to change wax not because the scent had died. So strength and longevity were excellent!

    100%! I LOVE this scent! Why? It’s a well balanced mix of rhubarb, floral rose and THAT typical clean scent from a certain bar of soap. It’s comforting, it’s pretty and it’s one of those fragrances I defy anyone not to like.

    Strawberry’s Wax Creations have lots of beautifully fragranced wax melts available on their website here. They change with every restock, so grab what you want and need when you can.

  • Rice & Shea Flower Wax Melt By Strawberry’s Wax Creations

    Can someone have too many wax melts in their collection? Yes. Does that stop them from adding to it? No. I am definitely THAT person who has an unhealthy addiction to wax melts and I’m not ashamed to admit it! One of my latest unnecessary wax melt orders has come from Strawberry’s Wax Creations (formally Strawberry Melts). I was pleased to receive Rice & Shea Flower Wax Melt as a free sample as it was totally unexpected. I decided to melt this because it’s a fragrance that intrigued me as I had no idea what it would smell like.

    How does this look?

    A small but perfectly formed gingerbread man style shaped piece of cream coloured wax. Dotted with small, scattered shards of glitter.

    Strawberry’s Wax Creations Scent Description

    An exquisite powdery feminine fragrance with top notes of ozone, ginger and aniseed, middle notes of coconut milk and rice flower, and base notes of amber sandalwood and musk.

    In melt

    This little wax didn’t take long to melt due to it’s size. All I could see was it drowning in it’s own wax juices which when melted was a simple creamy coloured wax pool. The scent didn’t hit me straight away, it crept up on me after an hour or so. It worked its way in my living room where my wax warmer was set up and on.

    Fragrance

    Rice & Shea Flower Wax Melt has a light and beautiful floral fragrance to it. It’s quite delicate and airy in scent. There’s a powdery element to it which gives it a comforting clean scent. There’s also a subtle zing to this finished off with a warming, light musk giving added depth. In all honesty, this is one of those scents that’s so hard to explain in words but it’s a very special fragrance.

    Strength & Longevity

    Strength wise this is medium. It’s not designed to be punchy, but one that fills the air naturally. I’ve melted this for at least 10 hours ( over 2 days ) and the longevity has been very good. This has shown the same strength from when it first melted on Day 1 to when my warmer was turned off end of Day 2.

    As scents go, this wouldn’t be my first choice based on it’s name alone. BUT I really love it! This is a beautiful, comforting scent. It’s gorgeous and very unusual and I need more! So totally recommended!

  • Designer Fragrance Dupe Melissa Jane Daisy Wax Melts

    Wax melts. You either love them or love them! What is there NOT to love about a piece of wax that can come in a multitude of fragrances and make a room smell amazing? What seems crazy, and ingenious, is many wax melts now are inspired scent wise by famous fragrances. Cleaning products, bath and body items and of course designer fragrances are now all available. Think of any scent and chances are you can find it in wax. I was delighted to receive for my birthday some designer fragrance inspired wax melts from a wax vendor called Melissa Jane in the scent of Daisy.

    How do these look?

    These came as 10 small off white wax melts shaped as different types of flowers. I’m no gardener, but one shape ( and there are 3 in total ) resemble tulips. Super cute, simple and easy on the eye.

    In Melt

    I wasn’t too sure how many melts to use but opted for three. Due to their size they melted super quickly and left a creamy coloured wax pool.

    Fragrance

    Now this is the tricky bit. I assume this is inspired by a well known fragrance but I’ve never smelt this perfume in real life. So all I can describe is what this smells like not whether this is a good version of the fragrance or not. What I can say is this is beautiful. Its floral, with a hint of fruity sweetness to it ending with a slight musky tone. Very feminine and pretty in scent. Definitely smells like it’s a perfume to me and totally addictive!

    Strength & Longevity

    Strength wise this is a medium to strong with 3 melts. What I love about this is it fragrances the room but doesn’t overdo itself. If it was super strong it could be very heady and overpowering. Longevity was excellent. This scent melted away over 4 days for at least 3 hours at a time and only then did I feel the scent needed changing. It gradually faded but in a natural way. It just became softer and lighter but still just as pleasant and enjoyable to smell.

    These Daisy wax melts provide great fragrance. They are super cute and simple looking melts which were long lasting. So these get a thumbs up from me! I’ve never tried this vendor out before and thanks to a friend, I will try Melissa Jane out in the future!

  • When Unicorn Fly Wax Melt By Strawberry’s Wax Creations

    As somebody who has a slight addiction to buying and use wax melts, it’s very hard to avoid new wax releases. My wax melt stash is pretty large, so to curb temptation I delve into my haul of wax I already have (and forgotten about). To keep my credit card safe and my home fragrant with a new scent, I’ve delved deep into my wax melt stash and pulled out When Unicorn Fly Wax Melt by Strawberry’s Wax Creations to use.

    Why did I buy this?

    I bought this as a set from Strawberry’s Wax Creations (formally Strawberry Wax Melts) towards the end of 2019. This set consisted of different scented wax pieces which were all unicorn themed scent wise. I bought this set because anything connected with unicorn in scent tends to be quite sweet in fragrance which I love. The set costing £10.00 with 10 wax melts in 5 different scents I thought was great value so a totally winner!

    Strawberry Melts When Unicorn Fly
    Strawberry’s Wax Creations Scent Description

    Loads of sweet, rich buttery top notes followed by fresh coconut and itty bitty hints of sweet berries with bottom notes of yummy, super sweet vanilla.

    How does this look?

    This set of two wax melts came in mint and white colouring. Both differently shaped with both looking like they’ve been set in a mini fancy cake or jelly mould. Small golden butterflies sprinkled on the top of each to complete the look. Size wise these were roughly 1 inch and raised, so not completely flat.

    In Melt

    This is quite a good sized wax shape so it took some time to fully melt. When it did it the now liquid wax became a deeper green colour.

    Fragrance

    It took awhile to figure out how these wax melts smelt but they smell like strawberry pencils! Those highly addictive long pencil shaped sweets with white fondant running through the middle is how this is fragranced. Creamy, sweet, slightly strawberry confectionery type scent with definite hints of coconut. This is one of those scents that will have you wiping the drool from your mouth once you smell it because it’s delicious!

    Strength & Longevity

    When Unicorn Fly Wax Melt is medium in strength. Fighting cooking smells in the kitchen means it had a decent punch to it. Longevity was great as well. I had this on for 3 days melting away at 4 hours a time. The scent was still there and I only changed the wax melt because I wanted a different fragrance.

    Those who love their sweetie inspired scents you will love this as much as I do! Its sweetie and fruity like, totally yummy and an enjoyable scent to melt. Absolutely recommended and yet again great quality wax melts from Strawberry’s Wax Creations.
