Who has a wax melt burner thingy?
Jump to: Newest in thread
I like the sweet smells. I usually use Yankee candle melts. Get them from Asda or the Yankee candle store. Don’t like any of the floral ones. Smell like toilet cleaner to me. Use the fruit or vanilla ones usually |

i have my burners on all day every day!
especially when i'm having a bad day, fragrance can really change my mood.
my pal sells them, and i couldn't be without 
Currently have a pink sugar one on downstairs, and a banana one upstairs!

"I've yet to try all the different whiffs but I do like strong smelling stuff.
Febreeze need to start doing them in the unstoppables flavours  "
My daughter calls them flavours too 
I need names people. |

I don't think I would like banana.
I can't turn mine on at the moment. |

Yes, it runs on electricity and it's so pretty. A bulb heats a glass plate with the wax melt on.
If only I liked the scents  |

I might not be the best at giving advices here because I like strong smells, but try Yankee Candle wax melts called Wedding Day. That one is quite subtle.
I have Midnight Jasmine candle burning at the moment and my all time favourite is from Christmas edition called Red Apple Wreath...can't get enough of it(all from Yankee Candle btw).

They are all the rage in my girls' circle of friends.
The lamp is a pretty glass thing. I'll send you a pic |

"I make my own candles so it’s easier to get oils and make a fragrance that is subtle and not too overpowering as I like them to burn for most of the evening, vanilla & coconut is a firm favourite "
That sounds long lol I have a vanilla one that smells. I'm hoping it's not overpowering when it melts. |

"I get most of mine from the internet usually perfume or nice aftershave scents , do like the Yankee candle ones though the black cherry is lush and makes the whole house smell nice. "
Cherry is my favourite aroma and flavour.
Do Yankee do the wax melts or just candles? |

Thank you. I'll try Wedding Day and I love the smell of jasmine.
I'll pay Yankee Candle a visit. |

Oh, I love Jo Malone. I wonder if there's wax melts in those fragrances |

I just found some Myrrh and Tonka ones on Amazon. Hopefully they smell like the perfume.
I go nose blind in shops when I'm sniffing fragrances.

Yeah me too! I get overexcited then can’t smell a thing! I have a couple of local independent ladies that make my wax melts and candles so I have a constant supply and they can recommend what I’d like. |

"Oooh love a was melt. Have winter spice in the burner at the mo. I like all the flavours really."
Lol another one who says flavours.
Winter spice air freshener is nice so I will probably like the wax melt.

I think that's what my girls do.
They have a lady who makes and sells them. I'm not struck on most of the ones I've got. |

"I received a lovely one for Mother's Day but the scents are overpowering and make me sneeze.
Anyone got any recommendations for light fragrances that don't smell like toilet cleaner?"
I don’t use them but burn essential oil in water in a regular burner or vaporiser , you can go as low as 1-2 drops.
I am an experienced aromatherapist so can advise but need to know are you burning for sleep, relaxation, anxiety, energy, concentration,creativity, healing etc they are all different oils and concentrations depending on why you burn them |

I love cherry vanilla, black coconut or a grey one called cosy up or something (Yankee candle ones) |

It’s definitely worth dropping her a message and telling her what kind of undertones you like and what you don’t like, it’s very trial and error but I have a definite style when it comes to scent and I have lots of choice. |

Yankee Candle clean cotton or baby powder are both great neutral fragrances.
I like bergamot or citrus oil melts, ylang ylang and occasionally cherry blossom. I can't stand vanilla, anything too sweetly fruity (mango, peach or berry make me feel ill after a few minutes). |

Funny you should say that. Yankee Candles' Cherry Blossom is so strong and sweet that I can't burn it for longer than an hour or two, however Red Raspberry I used to have on all day without any issue. I also can't stand the very sweet scents though, mostly vanilla or other "cake" scented candles.

I didn't realise Yankee did cherry blossom, I bought a load at a market ages ago, no brand name. Not a huge amount of perfume to them but what there is is pretty.
I'll know to swerve the Yankee ones though, cheers! |

I find the scents very relaxing usually. Put one on in the evening, let the light dance around and the perfume fills the room and I can feel my shoulders relax and a general feeling of serenity descends.  |

I got the vanilla one the other day and agree with you it was far too strong and after an hour of burning it smelt bad so had to get rid of it ... the black cherry one is lush though .. I’m currently burning issake myaki men fragrance and my whole house smells lovely |
