wax melt

Fragrant warming piece

A wax melt is a small piece of scented wax designed to be warmed in a special dish or electric warmer, releasing fragrance into a room.

Unlike candles, wax melts have no wick—they simply soften and pool as they heat.

They come in various shapes: cubes, hearts, flowers.

The house smelled like vanilla from the wax melts she'd been burning all day.
