Wax melts FAQs

The most frequently asked questions from our wax melt customers:

  • How do I use Orinoco wax melts?

    Place one wax melt in the dish of your wax burner. If using a tealight burner, light an unscented tealight below. If using an electric warmer, simply switch it on.

    The wax will gently warm and release its fragrance into the room. There’s no need to add water, just melt and enjoy.

  • How long does one wax melt last?

    On average, each Orinoco wax melt gives you around 6 to 8 hours of beautiful scent, but it depends on the fragrance, your burner type, and how long you keep it going. Once the scent fades, it’s time to remove the leftover wax and pop in a fresh one. The wax itself won’t evaporate, it just stops releasing fragrance.

  • What’s the best way to remove used wax from the burner?

    Once the scent has faded, let the wax cool and solidify. Then gently press or scoop it out—many melts pop out easily once hardened. If it’s stubborn, try placing the burner dish in the freezer for a few minutes to help the wax shrink and release.

    Alternatively, while the wax is still warm (but not hot), you can soak it up with cotton pads or paper towel. Always wipe the dish clean before adding a new melt to keep your fragrance fresh and true.

  • Are your wax melts safe and eco-friendly?

    Yes. We use natural vegetable wax and blend it with high-quality fragrance oils and essential oils. They’re vegan, cruelty-free, and made without phthalates or petroleum-based waxes. Packaging is kept minimal and recyclable, better for you, better for the planet.
