AmbiEscents Halloween 2016 Scented Wax Melts - Scent Reviews

This scent review video of AmbiEscents Halloween 2016 wax melts from BBB (Bed Bath & Beyond) is exclusive to our Facebook Group members. This is just a "scent review" of most of these since I only bought two (so I cannot comment on the throw for any of the others): Purple People Eater didn't smell as good to me when melted as it did cold, and throw was just "okay". I do think there's some kind of fruit in there, like a sweet candy cranberry, mixed with a little bit of cloves I think, and some other spices although I don't detect cinnamon or nutmeg. Thankful Harvest is fantastic when melted, with excellent throw.
 
In addition to these scents, BBB also brought back Ginger Pumpkin, Pumpkin Pickin', Apple Cinnamon Swirl, and Cranberry Spice from last year, and may be bringing others back as well.

Aldi Huntington Home Wax Melts Scent Review - September 2016

Aldi Huntington Home Wax Melts Scent Review - September 2016

Click photo to view larger image

This is a scent review of the four Fall 2016 Aldi Huntington Home Wax Melt scents that came out the second week of September 2016. Aldi puts out 4 wax melt scents in the spring, 4 in the summer, and 4 in the fall (but only candles in December for the holidays, no melts).

This is a video review of the scents only. I did not buy these because they're very similar to other wax melt scents I already have. So I cannot comment on the throw.

Yankee American Home Scented Wax Cubes from Walmart - Fall 2016 Scent Review

Yankee American Home Scented Wax Cubes from Walmart - Fall 2016 First Look

This is a "first look" at Walmart's Yankee American Home Scented Wax Cubes for Fall 2016. These are just my scent descriptions, as I did not buy these so I cannot comment on the throw. I did full reviews on other Yankee American Home scents this past Spring and last winter (http://www.scentedwaxreviews.com/search?q=yankee+american+home). I did not buy these because at $3.93 they're expensive (compared to $2 for ScentSationals and Better Homes & Gardens wax melts at Walmart). Even though the packages are larger, you're getting the same amount of wax (look at the weight), so you're just paying for more packaging. For the most part, I'm not crazy about the Yankee American Home melts because for most of the scents, the throw isn't as good as other Walmart wax brands, and the scents aren't fantastic enough to justify paying double the price.

Peaceful Beach
Kind of weak on cold sniff. A standard salty sweet water ocean type scent. This one may have come out in the summer, but I only saw it for the first time in September.

Spiced Orange & Clove
This is a typical orange pomander scent, kind of like cloves plus a note of orange, a bit more savory than sweet, but there's also a waxy note in there. I'm not a fan of orange pomander in general, so I don't like this one.

Shades of Fall
Very weak on cold sniff. Typical cinnamon pumpkiny scent but with a slight perfumey note. Hard to tell because it's so weak.

Spiced Apple Berries
Generic cinnamon apple scent with a fake waxy note.

Warm & Happy Home
This is a scent from last year that returned this year, but I did not review it last year. Nice but typical sweet cinnamon nutmeg spice fall scent.

Cozy Corner
Nice warm cashmere scent with a hint of laundry, and just a little sweet floral (gardenia?) perfume note.

Fall Morning
I don't like this one. It smells like pear or apple mixed with something bitter that maybe is supposed to be fall leaves. I just can't figure out that bitter note.

Bountiful Harvest
A nice but typical sweet cinnamon bakery scent.

Homemade Pumpkin Pie
Typical generic pumpkin pie scent with the nutmeg and a little cinnamon and a slight pie crust note.

Creamy Pumpkin Cupcake
Nice creamy milky caramely buttery scent with a little bit of a pumpkin spice note. Very nice, but there are other Walmart wax melts that smell very similar and at half the cost.


Delicious Cranberry, Fresh Balsam Fir, and Sparkling Cinnamon Spice scents are back from last year, and I did full reviews on them at http://www.scentedwaxreviews.com/2015/12/yankee-american-home-wax-cubes-walmart.html
