Glade Wax Melts Reviews - Spring 2019

Glade Wax Melts Reviews - Spring 2019

Glade Wax Melts - Spring 2019

These new scents are only available in candle form. I haven't found them in wax melts, so I scooped out the soft candle wax and put in the wax warmer instead of burning the candles (which is easy to do, since the wax is very soft, like tub margarine). Since Glade candles use a very soft wax and Glade wax melts use a very hard wax, the throw ratings may be different for the melts. If I can find the wax melts, I will update my review.



Acoustic Sage

Notes: Dried Sage, Fig Leaves, Brown Sugar

I didn't buy this one because it's a dupe of several older Glade scents I have, including Sunset Walk and Sage & Thyme Market. It's a very strong, pungent, savory, slightly lemony "salad" type scent with no sweetness at all. It's quite nice, although not something I want my house to smell like.



Berry Pop

Notes: Strawberry, Dewberry, Lime Zest

A fake, sweet, slightly tart berry scent, like fruit flavored drink mix. When melted, there's an odd "burnt" note way in the background that I don't care for.

Throw: Faint, 2.25 out of 5



Elegant Amber & Oud

Notes: Exotic Spices, Jasmine, Warm Amber and Oud Wood

Smells a like like Glade Volcanic Coconut Cove that came out April 2018, a nice smoky milky coconut. But it's not the same scent. This scent seems to use the Volcanic Coconut Cove scent as a base, but adds a hint of sweetness, a smidgen of cinnamon, a tiny bit of a foodie note like caramel or rum, a little bit of a cologney note, and a tiny bit of wood. Oud is a deep resinous almost tree sappy woodsy scent, and I don't smell that type of wood scent per se. Amber adds a warm note to scents, and I think I do smell that a little bit. Looking at the notes, I don't smell jasmine at all (but maybe that's the slight sweetness). It's not a floral scent at all. It's a great scent, and it smells a bit like ScentSationals Fire Amber and Goose Creek Cozy Home (but not as much as Volcanic Coconut Cove does).

Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5



Sultry Amber Rhythm

Notes: Dark rum, Arctic Mint and Black Leather

This smells like a rich men's cologne note with a sweet tobacco note and possibly a smidgen of patchouli. It almost has a foodie note, like maybe a hint of caramel or rum. I also smell a rich dark wood note. Looking at the scent notes, they're enticing! And there's the rum! I don't really smell leather, but it's probably way in the background. And I don't detect mint at all. I'd say it's a rummy, woodsy, slightly incensey men's cologne scent. And it's fantastic! Although this shares some of the notes with Elegant Amber & Oud, it's a totally different scent. But interestingly, I detect an oud note in this scent even though oud is not in the notes.

Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5

I've been finding these winter scents in candle form at many stores, but Target is the only store where I found the wax melts.



Dancing Flowers

Notes: Jasmine and lily of the valley with sparkling pear and fresh greens upon light, white woods

I was only able to find this scent in the candle, so I scooped out the wax to use in the warmer. It's a super sweet perfumey scent with a hint of baby powder I think. I don't smell pear, greens, or wood. I really like it and wish I could find it in a wax melt. Generally the melts throw better than the candles.

Throw: Mild, 3 out of 5



Enchanted Evergreens

Notes: Pine needles with a touch of festive spices and notes of cinnamon bark and nutmeg

This is one of the best pine/spruce scents I've ever smelled, and it's super strong on cold sniff. It's rich and a little smoky and woodsy, and even slightly salty. I don't smell any spices though. This is the same pine scent that Glade comes out with every year, but with a different name. And every year I fall for it because it smells so good on cold sniff, only to be disappointed that the strong cold sniff scent doesn't translate to a strong throw.

Throw: Medium, 3 out of 5



Nutcracker Delight

Notes: Roasted hazelnuts and sweet pralines, dusted with creamy vanilla bean upon dollops of almond butter

I love this scent! It's super sweet and caramely with a hint of nuts, and the nutty note is indeed hazelnuts (the same type of nut in that yummy spread called Nutella), and maybe a smidgen of almond. The scent notes and my description don't do it justice. It's fantastic.

Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5



Sugarplum Fantasies

Notes: Dark plums and tart blackberries with violet and vanilla sugar

I didn't buy this one (and it was only available in the candle). It was very weak on cold sniff and what I was able to smell was just a generic slightly tart berry scent.

Glade Candy Sprinkling Joy Wax Melt Review

Glade Candy Sprinkling Joy Wax Melt Review

Glade Candy Sprinkling Joy is a new holiday 2017 scent that should be showing up at Walmart in the next week or so (although Dollar General already has it). It's a tart slightly bitter fruity scent with just a smidgen of sweetness. It smells like cranberry with maybe a blackberry note, and perhaps a pinch of lemon. The notes shown on the label are red berries, pomegranate, and sugar. Throw was excellent, 3.5 or 4 out of 5, but it fizzled in under 2 hours.

Glade often reuses its scents under different scent names, and although I've never smelled this particular scent, it's most likely a dupe of some other older scent, because it doesn't smell like candy at all. It's really nice though! And if you don't care for fruity scents, you might still like this one because it's not too sweet.
