First impression of Summer Strawberry Mimosa:
Well, the picture on the label didn’t really draw me in but the scent sure did. When I popped off the lid to smell the wax, a sweet and sugary strawberry scent greeted my nose and it smelled really good. I could totally picture myself sipping this drink on a hot summer day. Actually, more like my kids would… it smells super sweet, like a strawberry punch.
Here is the scent description I found on Walmart’s website:
Sweet summer strawberries, sun-ripe raspberries and island sugarcane are blended with hints of fresh cut pineapple and sparkling French champagne. Cheers!
Yep, that’s what my nose detected… sweet strawberries, raspberries and lots of sugar. It also did kind of smell bubbly so add champagne to that as well. I liked… now let’s see how it performs!
Melting:
I used the entire clamshell pack (3 cubes each) in two electric melters in my great room. Once melting, it took minutes before the aroma was traveling throughout the room and it was awesome!! A sweet and sugary strawberry and pineapple punch fragrance filled my great room and I mean filled! The entire upper level of my home smelled like strawberry with a tinge of effervescence (the champagne component) along with sweet pineapple as well. I loved it! This is definitely a fun summer scent your entire family will enjoy. It was crisp, fruity and a room filler. I’m definitely going back for more next time I’m at Walmart.
Strength – these melts were a 10 out of 10 in any size room. Loved the strength!!
In closing, if you love sweet strawberry scents (and sugar,) definitely check out Summer Strawberry Mimosa. It was a hit in my house and one I’ll for sure be melting all summer. WOOT!
Happy melting!

Based on your review I will most definitely will be sending my hubby to get this for me to try! Being mostly homebound-I really like for my home to smell fresh. And just recently being put on oxygen (hopefully temporary!) I do not have to worry about a live flame! I really love to read your column. Keep up the good work and God Bless you and yours. Margo
Thanks Margo. Hope you love it as much as I did. 🙂
