Wax Melts, or Scented Wax, are a simple way to fragrance your home without an open flame, as the wax melts and releases fragrance while it warms. Since the wax isn’t burned, there’s no smoke or soot from the wax itself, which many people prefer for a fresher indoor feel. Scented wax often lasts longer and spreads more evenly throughout the room and, as a bonus, you can reuse the same wax piece until the scent begins to fade.
