Flamingo Candles | June Box 2016
So this month had a major shock, my post man arrived as I was eagerly waiting for him to drop off this months box and to my surprise he had a huge.. And I mean HUGE box with the melt crowd sticker on top! I couldn't open it fast enough, I had no idea why I had such a big box but then I discovered I had received a glass jar as well as my melts.
In-case anyone is new, or never knew about this last month Flamingo Candles celebrated there 1 year melt crowd anniversary... To everyone who had been subscribed for an entire year they received a free Birthday Cake jar, along with everyone who was in the melt crowd that month received a free birthday cake wax melt! It smelt divine, but honestly I thought it was a one off thing for that month only (I was gutted I missed out by a month too)... But surprisingly I received one this month as I'm now a 1 year subscriber!
As for this months subscription box, WOW! It's packed full of summer fun, with cocktail scented melts, pastel wrapping colours and some fun funky names this box honestly gets me in the mood to have fun, party and go lounge around in the garden.
Birthday Cake Jar
WOW! I am in love with this jar, first off the flamingo on the front is in a unique purple/pink glass gem style! When I unscrewed the lid the entire top was covered in a gold glitter which had been sprinkled all around (makes it look A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!). The scent itself is very 'Vanilla' like, a sweet, sugary and almost reminding me of vanilla sponge or milk bottle sweets! This jar is the definition of perfect, it looks amazing on my desk and honestly is too pretty to use.
WILD Strawberry Millions - RRP £2
This melt is packed full of a strong instantly smelling scent of fresh strawberries, but the more sweet type that reminds me of strawberries and cream. But I must admit it has a twist, I can't tell if the sugary sweet cream scent is more of a vanilla hint or more of a fresh yogurt like cream. Either way it's delicious and I'm super excited to burn.
First off, I'm in love with the packaging for this melt its wrapped in a gold style paper which makes me feel like this is the 'Golden' melt, the most special and honestly.. It's scent makes it probably my favorite out of all this months box. It's a very light smell of exactly like a Pina Colada Cocktail being sweet and mouth watering it's the up most refreshing to burn. It's also got a scent twist of fresh pineapple and oranges mixed together, it's such a refreshing melt.
The packaging for this melt is again just perfect, a blue paper makes it feel like the sea side, its a very fresh scent that has somewhat of a floral twist with an outdoor feel.
Cheesecake Crunch - RRP £2
Now I'm pretty sure I've had this before, whether I ordered it off the site separately, in another subscription box or possibly when I went to the Clothes Show Live last year. But I love this scent, anything 'food' oriented gets my vote any day! This scent isn't overpowering, very light and sweet plus it has a cute pastel paper wrapping. The scent itself is very sweet, with a slight hint of cinnamon mixed in with a buttery biscuit smell.
With this melt I am unsure if I love or hate it still... It's scent is very strong and powerful reminding me of various spices all in one pot (and honestly does a chili hint). But also has a hint of wood among all the spices, personally I feel like this is more suited for a 'man' to burn and more of a 'man melt'.
Peach - Melt Crowd Exclusive
I love this melt! And can't believe it's an exclusive if I'm honest, it's a very light scent but a fresh fruity 'peach' smell. It's again in a cute pastel wrapping which I'm in love with for this summer!
Gin & Tonic - Celebrate World Gin Day 11th Of June
WOW! Again another melt which has become a love of mine, this scent it fresh, clean, powerful and exactly how a gin & tonic smells with the sweet lime mixed in. Among the fresh scented lime it also somewhat reminds me of cucumber and the fresh veg and fruit smell you get when you walk down the grocery store.
Lemon Curd - RRP £2
Something makes me feel like we might of had this melt previously (I might be wrong), but I'm in love!! It's a very fresh, clean and summer flavoring smell of a sugary lemon that almost reminds me of homemade lemonade.
Overall, I'm in love with every single melt in this months box (apart from the chili one, I honestly can't make my mind up on this till I get round to burning it!). The melts are all perfect for summer from the cocktail scents, to the pastel paper colours. Let me know on Twitter/Instagram or in the comments below if your already a member, whats your favorite?
