Wax Melts 101: What Are They and Why Are People Obsessed?

|Benjamin Annis

You’ve probably seen them—those little waxy cubes that smell like heaven and promise to make your room smell like a bakery, a forest, or the dark side of your star sign. But what actually are wax melts? And why are they flying off the shelves faster than your last situationship? Let’s melt it all down.

1. What Even Are Wax Melts?

Wax melts are wickless, flameless chunks of scented wax that you pop into a wax burner to release glorious fragrance without the need for a flame. Think of them as candles’ cooler, commitment-free cousins—no soot, no smoke, no stress.

2. Why Wax Melts Slay the Scent Game

Because there's no open flame, wax melts release scent more evenly and can be stronger than a traditional candle. Plus, you can switch up scents quicker than you switch Spotify playlists. At Imperial Infusions, we design our wax melts for full-throttle fragrance without overwhelming your nose (or your cat).

Got kids, pets, or a chaotic streak? Wax melts are your safest bet. No flame means you don’t have to worry about burning the house down while you vibe out. Just plug in your wax warmer, drop in a cube, and boom—instant atmosphere.

5. Customise Your Vibe

One scent not cutting it? Mix and match melts to create your own fragrance cocktail. Try “Velvet Woods” + “Spiced Plum” for an autumnal cuddle in wax form, or “Gin & Tonic” + “Cucumber Mint” for a fresh, flirty lift. Imperial Infusions melts were made to play.
