This is a review of Goose Creek Candle Fall Wax Melts from 2018. These are cozy fall type scents that aren't the usual generic cinnamon apple type scents. Goose Creek Candle wax melts and candles can be found on their website at goosecreekcandle.com, and at some stores like Gabe's and Tuesday Morning.
Autumn Leaf & Amber
Top: Delicious Red Apple, Sparkling Amber; Mid: Fallen Leaves, Autumn Lake House; Base: Cedarwood, Rich Patchouli, Vanilla
This is not a sweet scent at all. It's kind of savory, peppery and a little sour/bitter. It's a peppery apple scent, and the apple is more of an old apple that fell on the ground after the fall season and mixed with old brown leaves. But not in a bad way. It's different. Looking at the notes, there's the apple and fallen leaves, not sure what an autumn lake house smells like though! On cold sniff I do detect a hint of amber (which is a sweet warm woodsy scent) and patchouli, but I don't smell those at all when melted.
A nice rich vanilla marshmallow scent with a smidgen of a smoky note. The Goose Creek website says this is the same scent as their Campfire Marshmallow scent from 2016, but I recall that scent having more of a slight laundry or perfumey note, and not as much marshmallow, and the throw was not good. This scent smells more like their Marshmallows scent from May 2018.
A rich warm caramel bakery scent with a slight vanilla note and maybe a hint of pumpkin spice, and a smidgen of a nutty note. It's not all that pumpkiny, or even spicy, which is good.
This is a salty caramel apple scent with a bit of a warm amber note. But it's not a perfumey scent, or even a floral scent at all, and definitely not a sunflower type scent. It's very salty, with almost a popcorn note, but also sweet. I like it!
This smells like marshmallow with a soft slightly cashmere note. It's a little sweet with just a tiny bit of a perfumey note, but it's not a perfumey scent at all. It's rich and warm and might have a hint of caramel, and maybe a barely detectable smidgen of chocolate, but although it smells yummy, it's not really a foodie scent. I like it.
