Blooming Honeysuckle
Notes: Sweet honeysuckle, dewy greens and relaxing jasmine
Same scent as last year's Blooming Honeysuckle, a lovely honeysuckle type scent with a bit of an orange blossom/neroli note (one of my favorite scents). It's not really authentic, but more of a sweet soapy honeysuckle, but still smells fantastic. But I believe this is a dupe of the older Sonoma "Honeysuckle" scent, and last year's "Hawaiian Honeysuckle". So it's not actually a new scent.
Throw: Bold, 5 out of 5, a scent monster that took over the house
Endless Sunshine
Notes: Lavender leaves, fresh citrus and white birch
A lovely scent combining light sweet floral and salty lemon. There may also be a hint of lavender. It's a nice, fresh, cheerful scent. Looking at the scent notes, they're spot on, although I'm not sure what birch smells like (I don't detect any woodsy notes).
Throw: Strong, 3.5 to 4 out of 5
Lilac Fields
Notes: Lilac, jasmine and orange blossom
This smells like lilac scented soap, and I love it. I can also smell the extra sweetness of the jasmine and a tiny bit of the rich honeysuckle type scent of the orange blossom.
Throw: Strong, 3.5 to 4 out of 5
Pink Velvet Cupcake
Notes: Jasmine, sugared vanilla and citrus
This is the same scent as last year's Pink Velvet Cupcake, a sweet vanilla scent with a very slight salty peanut note, and maybe a smidgeon of lemon and some kind of berry and just a barely detectable note of almond. Melted, however, I smell mostly the vanilla and not as much of the peanut, lemon and berry notes. On cold sniff it smells a little bit like ScentSationals Pink Velvet, but not exactly. That one had slightly more tart berry and lemon notes, while Sonoma Pink Velvet Cupcake is sweeter, has a stronger vanilla note, and a very slight perfumey note. Looking at the scent notes, the slightly perfumey note is the jasmine. Last year's throw was mild, around a 2.5 out of 5.
Throw: Medium, 3 to 3.5 out of 5
Summer Berry Lemonade
Notes: A vibrant blend of lemonade and mixed berries
A fantastic blend of raspberries and tangy lemon. It might be the same scent as last year's Raspberry Lemonade, but I no longer have that one because the throw was weak. The notes for last year's Raspberry Lemonade were raspberries, blackberries and red currants with a touch of lemon, nectarine blossom and peach. Those notes could definitely describe this scent as well (although I don't smell peach).
Throw: Strong, 3.5 to 4 out of 5
Walk in the Park
Notes: Relaxing notes of eucalyptus, aloe and apple
I can't figure out the notes in this one. I smell fruit, maybe apple. And it also has a slightly clean soapy herbal note, as well as a slight peppery note. It's kind of green and natural, and just slightly sweet. Looking at the scent notes, there's the apple, and I guess the aloe is the fresh note, and maybe the eucalyptus is the peppery note? I don't actually smell eucalyptus though, which tends to smell a bit like pine. Melted, it smells like a fresh, very slightly fruity body wash. It's a nice pleasant scent.
Throw: Medium, 3 to 3.5 out of 5
Weekend Getaway
Notes: Gingered apple, jasmine and cedarwood
A very nice, pleasant scent with apple and floral with a very slight perfumey note, and something else I can't figure out. It's sweet but not perfumey sweet. Looking at the scent notes, yes, I smell the cedar on cold sniff but not when melting.
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5

These are 6 brand new Kohl's Sonoma winter wax melt scents as of October 20, 2017. These melts use very soft wax, a different consistency from the other new Sonoma winter melts which use the hard wax (which I reviewed last week at http://www.scentedwaxreviews.com/2017/10/sonoma-wax-melts-review-kohls-winter-2017.html.
Falling Snow
Notes: Frosted peppermint, spun sugar and sweet vanilla
This is the same scent as Falling Snow from 2015 (which I reviewed in November 2015). I said in 2015 that this is "pure mint, with just a hint of sweetness. It's not sweet enough to be a candy cane scent", but this one does smell slightly sweeter, but still not quite as sweet as a candy cane or mint candies, and no creaminess. It's peppermint, like the center of a peppermint patty. Also has a little bit of a sinus-clearing effect. A nice chilly scent that almost makes the room feel cold, this would be a great scent to melt on a hot summer day!
Throw: Bold, 4 out of 5 in 2015 (hard wax), and throw for new softer wax is Medium (3 or 3.5 out of 5).
Frosted Woodland Pine
Notes: Pine, balsam fir and cool musk
There was a Woodland Pine in 2016, but this is a different scent. This is a very nice pine scent with a smoky note. It's not a biting pine. I don't smell musk or any perfumey notes. It has a blue spruce note to it, which gives it a bit of richness or depth.
Throw: Medium, 3 out of 5
Merry & Bright
Notes: Citrus, vanilla and musk
This is not a holiday scent. It's a fantastic super sweet marshmallowy vanilla fruity scent (raspberry or blackberry) with a sweet musky note. It's sweeter and more fruity and perfumey than Pink Sugar, and it's not a cotton candy scent either. I would describe it as raspberry vanilla marshmallow perfume. Looking at the scent notes, I'm surprised I don't see any fruit notes. I don't smell citrus at all (lemon, orange or grapefruit). I love this one!
Someone in the Facebook group asked if this is a dupe of last year's Snow Days scent (which I reviewed at http://www.scentedwaxmeltreviews.com/2016/10/sonoma-winter-holiday-2016-wax-melts.html). I sniffed both Snow Days and Merry & Bright side by side, and they're a bit similar but not the same. Merry & Bright has more of a marshmallowy perfume note and the fruit is less "provocative", if that makes sense, so it's more of a raspberry or cherry note than Snow Days. Snow Days is a deep rich warm sweet ambery blackberry scent, and smells a lot like ScentSationals Blackberry Cider, Goose Creek Blackberry Parfait, and Scentsy Luna.
Throw: Strong, 3.5 or 4 out of 5
Silent Night
Notes: Pine, sandalwood and musk
This scent has returned from 2016, and it's the same exact scent despite different notes (2016 notes: "Amber pairs with aromatic notes of pine and lavender layered on top of sweet sandalwood"). The new notes seem to be the correct ones (I don't smell lavender in this scent).
This smells a lot like 2015 Sonoma Harvest Moon and Autumn Hayride scents, but with some different notes. I smell pine first, with a smoky background and a very slight sweetness which may be a smidgen of a cologne note. Very nice scent!
Throw: Strong, 3.5 or 4 out of 5
White Birch & Pomegranate
Notes: White birch, pomegranate and fir needle
This smells like cranberry and pine on cold sniff, but when melted it also has a slightly sour note that I don't care for. It's not a sweet scent at all, despite the cranberry (pomegranate).
Throw: Medium, 3 or 3.5 out of 5
Winter Blessings
Notes: Peppermint, buttercream and vanilla
This smells like a sweet peppermint vanilla cookie.
Throw: Strong, 3.5 or 4 out of 5
