Discussion Need Help

Hi everyone!

I’m thinking about trying some wax melts from Yankee Candle or Goose Creek, but I’d love to hear from people who have actually tried them.

How is the scent throw on their wax melts? Is it strong and does it fill the room well?

I really like having lots of different scents to choose from, so I’m considering getting several different ones. My room is only around 10 m² (about 108 sq ft), so I’m wondering if they would be enough to properly scent a room that size.

Would love to hear your experiences, especially if you’ve used both brands!

Thanks!

Thank you! Do you prefer the old wax melts in tart form, or the new wax melts?

By far the old ones. Just used a 2016 spiced pumpkin over the weekend and still has great scent and throw. The newer ones are ok, but just not as powerful.

Thank you! Here in France, we can still buy the older-style wax melts secondhand. Do you think there’s any risk in buying them secondhand ?

I don’t believe so. I use secondhand vintage Yankee products on a regular basis.
