Type: 2.5oz Clamshell Melts

First Impression:
Yum!! The moment I popped the lid off to smell Roasted Coconut Pumpkin… a creamy pumpkin and coconut hit my nose. It was sweet, creamy and surprisingly nice. I say that because you wouldn’t think Pumpkin and coconut would go well together. In this case (so far) they do. The pumpkin stood out the most to me with hints of toasted coconut and I couldn’t wait to see what it would smell like once the wax was melting.
Time to find out!
Melting:
I used the entire clamshell pack (3 cubes each) in 2 electric melters in my great room. Once melting, it took a few minutes before the aroma started wafting through my home and oh my goodness….. I loved it. Every second of it. My house smelled like I was baking a vanilla custard pie with warm notes of creamy pumpkin and coconut – light on the pumpkin, heavy on the coconut. Nothing harsh or synthetic about this scent either, just pure bakery goodness. 
Strength – on a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate these melts a 9 in a large room. Total room filler and I was seriously in heaven.
If you love bakery scents with coconut – – Roasted Coconut Pumpkin is a must try. The best part, the pumpkin wasn’t too heavy at all which I really liked, and boy does the toasted coconut stand out a lot. Just imagine a creamy custard pie with swirls of creamy pumpkin, vanilla and toasted coconut. YUM!! YUM!!!! Even my husband commented on this scent letting me know how much he liked it and he rarely if ever comments on a scent.
Bakery lovers…. definitely pick up this scent next time you’re at Walmart. I seriously loved every second of it and plan on going back for more very soon.
Happy melting!

I’ve been burning scented candles for the past 30 years. I have sampled at least one hundred different brands over the years. Including but not limited to Yankee, Bath &Body Works, Wood Wicks . Till last year I discovered this small but new handcrafted company called Spankys Candles. What a find . Clean burn all the way to the end, amazing scent throw all the way to the end, no melt puddles of wax to bury your wick, no black soot on jar when you blow it out. Even burn all the way to the bottom. All that’s left is a pool of scent oil that continues to fill the air as long as the Wicks last, which seems to be forever. Wonderful scent collections. Go to SpankysCandles.com. You will be amazed.
