This is completely new to me, I have never used a wax melt before, nor have I really seen it in action. I decided to purchase some a few months back from the Yankee Candle online store and have only gotten round to try it out now. The first one I've decided to try out is the Under The Palms fragrance, which is not my typical go-to scent but I thought I would try something a little different. The name alone makes me feel like I'm on a Caribbean beach sitting under a beautiful tall palm tree. The scent definitley smells exotic but I suppose I imagined a more beach/sea like scent. Although, I'm not complaining because the scent is still lovely and soothing. Also, I'm not sure why the candle has white specs all over it, it may be a really old batch from the warehouse so apologies for the tacky picture.

Finally the sun is out and the weather is slowly getting better. So when I finished my Cranberry Ice candle, I thought what better way to get into Spring than burning this gorgeous candle?

If you sniff the actual candle you'll smell such a beautiful fresh sweet scent that reminds you of summer. However, unlike the normal Yankee candles, this one didn't release as much of a scent and even when it was burning for a long time, it didn't leave its scent lingering around. In comparison to snowflake cookie, this definitely was weaker. Which is a shame as I do love this candle and if the scent was stronger, it would leave a gorgeous summery scent. Bit of a dissapointment - on to the next!
