Intro To My Wax Melt Review
I had the pleasure of trying out a Flannel wax melt from Man Brand Candles recently. I enjoyed their Black Currant wax melt, so I was anxious to try this one to see how it would fare.
First Impressions of My Wax Melt
This wax melt was similar to my Black Currant wax melt: it was a clamshell style with a huge label on the outside for easy identification. The wax was white and there was a black mustache embed in one of the corners.
Cold sniff – fresh and clean and a little bit cologne-y. Looking at the scent description:
Warm and fresh blend of Bergamot, Mahogany and a delicate base of musk.
I immediately thought of the Flannel candle from Bath & Body Works. Pretty much the same scent notes. Would it hold true as a dupe? I used one of the cubes in my little wall plugin warmer which has a 15W bulb. Even before it started melting, I could get the sharp, citrus-y bergamot notes off the top. It instantly brightened up my office space and I was thrilled!
As it continued to melt, the scent got a little more cologne-y and bright. There was a slight woodsy note to this scent – kind of sweet woodsy, not warm or heavy. It was sooooo fresh and perfect for the space I was in. It did remind me a lot of the B&BW candle! Woodsy and clean and a little bit on the masculine side. I actually view this as more of a unisex scent.
One cube scented up my office space VERY well. As a matter of fact, I could smell it on out into the hallways and I had to keep turning my warmer on and off to keep from “disturbing” others as they walked on past my office (where I keep the door closed). Fantastic!
How Did My Wax Melt Perform?
The wax melt performed well. One cube was good enough to scent up a closed office and it lasted a long time. And that was with a lower wattage melter! That tells me that it would have done really well in my home with my typical set up (2 cubes in a 24W hotplate melter).
Closing To My Wax Melt Review
I loved this Flannel wax melt from Man Brand Candles. It was a really good dupe of the B&BW candle version. This is a great unisex scent that is really good during chilly months, but I could see using this one even in the warmer months. It was a pretty stronger thrower, too, with one cube doing a pretty good job in an enclosed space. Hats off again to Man Brand!
