Wax Melts

Strong Scented Wax Melts Hand-Poured in the UK

Fill your home with fragrance using our collection of strong scented wax melts. Hand-poured in the UK, our melts are made using a high-fragrance soy and paraffin wax blend designed to melt easily and deliver a bold scent throw.

Choose from fresh laundry fragrances, soft florals, sweet and fruity scents, comforting bakery-inspired melts, cosy woody blends and perfume-inspired favourites. With mini wax melts from £2 and larger segment pots available, it is easy to try something new or stock up on a scent you already love.

Mini Wax Melts and Segment Wax Melts

Mini wax melts are ideal for sampling new fragrances, using a smaller amount of wax or mixing complementary scents. Segment wax melts contain larger breakable portions and are a good choice when you want a bolder fragrance or need to scent a bigger room.

Start with a small amount and add more only when needed. Room size, airflow, burner style and fragrance choice can all affect how strongly a wax melt smells.

Find Your Favourite Wax Melt Scent

For a bright, just-cleaned feeling, browse our clean and fresh wax melts. Choose floral scents for softer, calming fragrance or explore foodie wax melts for bakery, dessert and sweet-shop favourites.

How to Use Wax Melts

Place a small piece of wax in the clean dish of a suitable burner, then warm it gently until the wax melts and releases its fragrance. Allow the wax to melt fully before deciding whether you need to add more.

Read our complete guide on how to use wax melts for advice on portions, placement, safety and changing fragrances. If the scent seems weaker than expected, follow our guide explaining why you may not be able to smell your wax melts.

Choosing a Wax Melt Burner

Wax melts can be used in suitable electric or tealight burners. Electric burners provide steady heat without needing a candle, while tealight burners add a warm, traditional glow.

Browse all wax melt burners, compare the different options in our wax melt burner guide, or shop electric wax melt burners and tealight wax melt burners separately.

Wax Melts for Every Room

Clean and citrus fragrances work particularly well in kitchens and bathrooms, while soft florals and relaxing scents suit bedrooms. Sweet, woody and perfume-inspired wax melts can help create a welcoming atmosphere in living rooms and larger spaces.

Wax Melt Gifts

Wax melts make easy little gifts, stocking fillers and additions to home fragrance hampers. Choose a selection of mini melts for someone who likes trying new scents, or pair a segment pot with a decorative burner for a more complete gift.

What are wax melts?

Wax melts are pieces of fragranced wax that release scent when gently warmed in a suitable wax melt burner. Unlike a candle, a wax melt does not contain its own wick.

How do you use wax melts?

Place a small piece of wax in the clean dish of a suitable electric or tealight burner. Warm the wax gently and allow it to melt fully before adding any more. Follow the instructions supplied with your individual burner.

Are your wax melts strong?

Our wax melts are made using a high-fragrance soy and paraffin wax blend for a bold scent throw. The final strength will also depend on the fragrance, room size, airflow, amount of wax and burner being used.

What is the difference between mini and segment wax melts?

Mini wax melts are smaller portions that are useful for sampling scents or mixing fragrances. Segment wax melts contain larger breakable pieces and are a good option when you want to use more wax or fragrance a larger space.

How long do wax melts last?

You can reheat the same wax until its fragrance has faded. How long this takes varies according to the scent, amount used, burner temperature and length of each warming session.

Why can’t I smell my wax melts?

The wax may have finished releasing its fragrance, the burner may be positioned in a draft or the amount of wax may be too small for the room. Allow it to melt fully, move the burner away from windows and fans, and replace wax that has already been reheated several times.

Follow our wax melt scent troubleshooting guide for more detailed checks.

Can I mix different wax melt scents?

Yes. Start with small portions so the burner dish does not become overfilled. Try combining related fragrances, such as floral and sweet scents or fresh scents with a fruity note.

Are electric or tealight burners better for wax melts?

Electric burners provide consistent heat without needing a tealight, while tealight burners offer a traditional candlelit atmosphere. The right choice depends on your room, available space and preferred style.

Use our burner guide to compare electric, plug-in, touch and tealight models.

How do I remove old wax from a burner?

Switch the burner off and allow the wax to cool and harden. Gently lift the solid wax from the dish and wipe away any residue before adding a different fragrance. Never pour melted wax down the sink.

Are wax melts good gifts?

Yes. Mini wax melts are affordable little gifts and stocking fillers, while larger segment melts can be paired with a decorative burner to create a complete home fragrance present.
