First impression of Honey Soaked Apples:
Just the name alone sold me… Honey Soaked Apples? YUM!! I love fresh apple scents all year long so this was definitely a scent I wanted to experience, especially now that Fall is officially here.
Here is the scent description from Swan Creek’s website:
Pure, Crisp and Refreshing. A mild honey note with a pure crisp apple body for a high throw.
First impression when smelling the wax? This scent was all apple and it was very fresh indeed. The honey was mild, I could barely smell it actually which the description indicates so – so far, so good.
Melting Honey Soaked Apples:
I must point out… this fragrance had wood chip embellishments in it so the first thing I did was pick them out one by one. Even though embellishments can be pretty and visually fun, I’m not a fan. Mostly because it’s messy and a pain to clean out of your melters. Once that was out of the way, I threw one cube (2 cubes total) in two electric melters in my great room. Five minutes later and I seriously mean five minutes… the fragrance of fresh apples and honey was everywhere and it smelled WONDERFUL! The apple wasn’t a tart kind of apple but more crisp, sweet and fresh, like biting into a ripe and sweet red apple. I loved it. The honey notes were there as well but very subtle. It smelled very sweet, like sugar. I also smelled a teeny hint of something spicy as well. Cinnamon maybe? I’m not sure but whatever it was… loved it!
Strength – I would rate this scent a 10 out of 10 in any size room. Definite room filler. LOVED!
Closing it up, I seriously loved Honey Soaked Apples and will for sure purchase again, and again, and again. If you love Fall apple scent, Honey Soaked Apples is a must try. I may even try a candle next time.
Happy melting!

Your review did not state— how many hours did the scent last?? Thanks Trina
Hi Katrina,
We don’t state how long each candle lasts because that’s subjective to each person. I could burn a candle non stop for 3 days and you could burn the same candle for a few hours a day. Your candle would last longer than mine. Also, candle companies list how many hours their candles will last if you burn them for the exact number of hours they recommend per day. It all really depends.
