Recent Wax Reviews


Handmade Prim Strawberry Margarita: both on cold and when melting this is kind of an artificial candy strawberry with no distinguishable tart or boozy notes to me. Rather unimpressive. Moderate throw for about 4-6 hours. Overall grade: C. Would not repurchase.

Cosmic Gems Indulge In Relaxation (brown sugar fig & black raspberry vanilla): This is a yummy, sweet blend. I definitely get musky, berry fruitiness from the fig and raspberry, as well as a hint of creaminess from the vanilla. I swear I also get something herbal/lavender from it. A pleasant blend that had fairly strong throw for about 8 hours. Overall grade: A-. Might repurchase.

The Scented Squirrel Coco Goes To Key West (coconut cream pie + key lime pie): a really well done blend! Creamy, sweet coconut and a tart twist of lime with a hint of buttery pie crust. This smelled good enough to eat and had fairly strong throw for about 8 hours. Overall grade: A. Would repurchase.

Front Porch Extreme Zucchini Bread: a yummy, warm baked zucchini bread scent. Pretty ordinary and only had strong throw for an hour or two. Had light throw for the rest of the day. Overall grade: B-. Would not purchase.

Front Porch Sandalwood: a nice, mellow sandalwood but nothing special. Had fairly light throw all day. Overall grade: C. Would not purchase.

Country Lane Keepsakes Fresh Squeezed Oranges: a really tart and refreshing orange juice type scent. Strong throw for about 4 hours, becoming moderate thereafter. Overall grade: A-. Might repurchase.

Vintage Chic Scents GG (honeydew watermelon cantaloupe): a lovely, fresh melon fruity blend! Super cute shape and has had fairly strong throw for several hours. Overall grade: A. Would purchase.

Country Lane Keepsakes Lemon Squares: a yummy tart yet sweet mix of lemon preserves and flaky crust with a touch of powered sugar. Making me hungry! Has had strong throw for several hours. Overall grade: A+. Would purchase.
