Oh Flamingo Candles, you've done it again. Each month when it come to a fresh start, it feels like I'm constantly sat waiting by the door for the next Flamingo Candles box to arrive. This must be how my dog feels when he's waiting for the postman who always gives him a biscuit. Anyway...this months box is definitely one of the best yet (okay I know I probably say that every month but still), if not the best. Seriously, this months box is so good that it ranks up there as one of the best since The Melt Crowd started - it smells that amazing that the first time I caught whiff of it, I think I actually drooled.
This month, The Melt Crowd has had a bit of a shake up and with a very quirky but unique redesign. Themed around being 'Out Of This World', the box boasts beautiful and strong melts, giving an overall aroma that would actually fool you into thinking something edible lay inside. Seriously. It's a strange coincidence, but it was only this time last year that I boasted that the November 2015 box was my favourite, and now Flamingo Candles have gone and done it again. Props to you guys, I love you!
'Banana Pancakes' Scent Melt - Now I'm not normally one for Banana, but there's something bizarrely appealing about this melt. It's not as sweet as you'd think, and theres an undercurrent of warmth there too that makes my mouth water slightly. Surprisingly the banana isn't too overpowering, and it really does smell like when you wake up to fresh cooked pancakes on a weekend. Yummy.
'Popcorn' Scent Melt - There's always one thing thats great about walking into a cinema, and thats the smell of the delicious popcorn in the air. Thankfully now you can bask your home in that scent with this beautiful melt! With a rich and buttery air to it, this melt is definitely one of the stronger ones of the box. I can imagine it being slightly overpowering for some with it's rich scent, but it's definitely one of my favourites of the box. I'm definitely in need of the full sized candle as soon as possible.
'Rhubarb and Pear' Scent Melt - Boy oh boy. Where do I start with this melt?! My favourite of the entire box, I wasn't expecting to like this melt when I first laid eyes on it. Now I'll be the first to say here that both rhubarb and pear do not rank anywhere on my favourite foods list, but this melt....my God. Somehow Flamingo Candles have managed to take two products I would never even dream of touching, and combine them into one powerful, mouthwateringly good melt. Mmmmm. You know I mentioned before about the box smelling edible? Well that is 100% thanks to this gorgeous melt. I need this scent in my life, like forever. *Insert heart eyed emojis everywhere*
'Chai Tea Latte' Scent Melt - A spicier melt than the rest, 'Chai Tea Latte' is sure to please those who love those warmer scents associated with winter. It actually reminds me of the 'Christmas Memories' Yankee Candle my mum always burns and seems to have an unlimited supply of.
'Cranberry, Orange and Cinnamon' Scent Melt - I've mentioned it countless times in the past, but I'm really not a fan of cinnamon. It just doesn't do it for me - scent, taste, everything. Thankfully though in this melt it's not too obvious, and it kind of gets drowned out more by the other fruity fragrances. I love how the cranberry and orange mix together to create this one lovely, fruity blend - it's definitely one I'll be reinvesting in.
'Hot Fudge' Scent Melt - Oh 'Hot Fudge', how I love you. Last month I was sent the candle version of this melt (you can check my review out here), and I've been pretty much in love with it ever since. It's perfect for anyone like me who has a sweet tooth, and it smells so good that it could trick you into thinking it's edible. It's mouthwateringly good, and if you have a weakness for hot chocolate fudge cake, then this melt is definitely for you.
'Strawberry and Geranium' Scent Melt - This melt is a weird one for me, as I find my reactions to it tend to change constantly. A very floral based melt, you can definitely detect the geranium in here, with the strawberry taking somewhat of a backseat.
'Black Raspberry and Vanilla' Scent Melt - The final melt of the box, 'Black Raspberry and Vanilla' sure doesn't disappoint. Another warming melt, this one is surprisingly soothing and makes me feel like relaxing. I love anything with vanilla in and this melt is no different - the black raspberry is actually a nice addition too, giving it that extra bit of rich, fruity flavour.
Overall I have to say this months box is seriously impressive, and I love the packaging design. Having been a Melt Crowd subscriber for over a year now I can confidently say that they're always keeping their products fresh and exciting. I can't wait to see what next month brings!
