Over the years, home fragrance items like wax melts have been popular for infusing space with delightful scents. But how many among you know about wax melts, and how does their usage bring into effect the perfect scented home? In case there are some who remain curious about these small aromatic magical blocks, here is a guide from FS BLENDS into everything one needs to know.

What are Wax Melts?  

Wax melts are small bits of wax—usually scented that get heated to emit fragrance. Unlike candles, wax melts would not have a wick. Instead, these are put inside a warmer that heats the wax up gently to make it melt and emit the aroma into the air. One of the biggest advantages of using wax melts is the ability to control scent intensity and experiment with different fragrance combinations. Whether you are new to wax melts or a seasoned user, you will love the way these products fill your home with pleasant, long-lasting scents.

How to Use a Wax Melt?  

If you’re wondering how to use a wax melt, then it is extremely simple. Please find the usage below on melted wax in a little more detail:

• Wax Warmer: It is necessary to melt the wax in a wax warmer. Wax warmers are available as both electric and tea-light. Electric warmers are more in use nowadays as their usage is pretty easy and safer too because it has no open flame.
• Choose Your Wax Melt: Wax melts are available in a wide array of shapes and differing sizes and certainly do not lack a range of vibrant fragrances, be it fruity over floral or anything more exotic. You can also find scented wax melts, available in several blends, like FS Blends, which mix several scents for a layered aroma experience.
• Add Wax Melt to Warmer: Break off a piece of this wax melt—or use it all in one, depending on how large the warmer may be—and place it in the dish of the warmer.
• Activate the Warmer: Of course, if you are using an electric warmer, all that is required is to plug it in and flip the switch. The heat from this warmer will slowly melt the wax, releasing the beautiful fragrance into your home. If you have a tea-light warmer, light the little candle situated under your dish to warm the wax.  
• Enjoy the Fragrance: Being made of wax, they can fill up a room with sweet perfume. Most of these scented wax melts would continue to emit their fragrance for several hours after they have melted.
• Wax Change: Once you don’t get a scent from the wax melt anymore, turn off the warmer and let the wax cool down and get solid. Then, they can be taken out of the warmer and changed for another fresh melt.

Scented Wax Melts How to Use

Now what are wax melts without scent?  With the scented wax melts you need to play with different scents for balance inside your space. Unlike in candles, where there is one single fragrance, wax melts allow you to be just that little bit more flexible in mixing and matching to achieve a unique scent or just have a particular scent for a mood or season.  

For example, citrus or floral can keep a room fresh during spring and summer, while warm spicy scents like cinnamon or vanilla can create a cozy atmosphere during the colder seasons. Many people believe scented wax melts give them a more flexible and tailor-made offering, both in terms of the wider range of scent profiles and intensities they afford.

Advantages of Using Wax Melts  

Using wax melts comes with a variety of advantages:

• Safety: Furthermore, it is claimed that wax melts are much safer as they do not involve an open flame, and this could be more true with electric warmers, having pets and children around.
• Fragrance Variety: Wax melts come with a wide variety of fragrances—from the most popular scented candle scents list—to suit each room in your house.  
• Cost-effective: Unlike scented candles, it is mostly cost-effective, as wax melts usually last longer because you can only use part of the melt each time.  
• Personalization: You can also combine different types of melts to create your own unique fragrance, making it more personalized in the fragrance of your home.

How Long Do Wax Melts Last?  

One of the questions typically asked is, for how long do wax melts last? A wax melt can last according to the size of the wax melt, the type of wax being used, and the strength of fragrance in that melt. Typically, a common-sized wax melt can last around 8 to 12 hours of continuous use. Some good-quality melts from brands like FS Blends can have their fragrance persist for an even longer period.

Keep in mind, too, that would be according to the heat of your warmer and what kind of wax you use. Soy wax melts, for instance, burns rather slowly and usually gives a longer sniff.

What are Wax Melts and What are Candles: Which is Better?  

While both wax melts and candles accomplish the same task—the fragrance of your home there are a few key differences between them:

• No Open Flame: Since wax melts do not generate any flame, they can be considered much safer and thus more versatile in homes with small children or pets.
• Scent Strength: Scented wax melts can give off a stronger and more consistent scent than normal candles obviously depending on the use, because they release the scent without burning the fragrance oils. Cost-Effectiveness: Typically, wax melts are more cost-efficient in the long run. Since it gives one control over the usage amount at any particular moment, one package of melts could last longer than a scented candle of equal size.

Picking out the Perfect Melt  

When it comes to the selection of wax melts for use in your home, consider the following:

• Fragrance preferences: Consider what type of fragrance you would like to smell. Do you prefer crisp and fruity, or more musky and woodsy tones? The options are endless, especially with blended fragrance options like FS Blends, which in one scent option can offer multidimensional deeply rich fragrances.  
• Wax Quality: Not all waxes have the same melt performance. Soy wax melts are indispensable in the world of melts with respect to their eco-friendliness and how long their fragrance can last. Paraffin melts can give a stronger fragrance upfront. Scent throw refers to how well the fragrance permeates the space in the room. Some melts are better for smaller rooms, although some enable a stronger throw for larger areas.
