Burner size, heat and placement can all affect how strongly you smell your fragrance. Keep your burner away from open windows, doors and fans, and use an appropriate amount of wax for the size of the room.

What is a wax melt burner?

A wax melt burner, sometimes called a wax melt holder or wax warmer, gently heats scented wax so that it melts and releases fragrance into the room. Burners may be powered by a tealight, electricity or a plug-in heating element.

What is the difference between a wax melt burner and an oil burner?

A wax melt burner is designed to hold solid scented wax, while an oil burner is used with suitable fragrance oils according to the product instructions. Some burners are suitable for both wax melts and oils, but you should always check the individual product description before use.

Are electric or tealight wax melt burners better?

Electric burners provide steady heat without an open flame and are convenient for everyday fragrance. Tealight burners offer a traditional cosy glow and often heat the wax more quickly. Our wax melt burner guide can help you choose the right option for your room.

Can I use wax melts in an oil burner?

Only use wax melts if the burner is specifically described as suitable for wax. Some oil burners have dishes that can safely hold wax melts, while others are intended only for oils. Always follow the product instructions.

Why can’t I smell my wax melts?

The wax may have lost its fragrance, the burner may be positioned in a draft, or the room may need a little more wax. Heat also needs to be consistent. Follow our wax melt scent troubleshooting checklist for step-by-step help.

How do I clean a wax melt burner?

Switch the burner off, allow it to cool and wait until the wax is solid. Gently remove the wax and wipe the dish clean before adding a different scent. Do not pour melted wax down the sink. See our complete wax melt burner cleaning guide.

How much wax melt should I use?

Start with one piece of wax and add more only when needed. Larger and open-plan rooms may require a little more, but never overfill the burner dish. Read our wax melt usage guide for more advice.

Are wax melt burners good gifts?

Yes. Wax melt burners make lovely gifts for birthdays, housewarmings, Christmas and self-care hampers. Pair one with a selection from our wax melts collection to create a complete home fragrance gift.
