Scent In A Box Review by Alisha


In December In received Scent In A Box, I've taken longer to review this as I've given the products a good go and of course have been delayed with the holidays. This is a subscription box that you receive 3 gorgeous smelling items each month, for those who love their lovely smelling things this is a perfect one for you.

Scent in a box combines bath bombs, wax melts and candles to make their box. The use smaller artisan businesses so you'll always be discovering new brands to find your favourite items. I know many on our group really love these three things so A Box with all these is perfect and would make a fab gift.

In my December box there was of course a festive theme that ran through all the three items. They all smelt of Christmas and winter scents which I really enjoyed using to get into the Christmas spirit! The box itself is simple but makes it feel very special and I love the ribbon and stamp design which is very unique.

I received a Woodland wax Melt from Colton candles, of course this one smells of winter for trees with some wild juniper berries, cedar wood and peppermint and the combination together smells amazing not something I'd think to buy myself. It's a sweet smell with the berries and of course a natural woody feel as if you'd been to the woods for a little trip. Also this one has a green glitter at the back which is super festive, the shape also means it's really easy to break and get lots of uses from it's a great size.
 My next product is a large bath bomb also from Colton candles which is scented with winter berries. It's a beautiful vibrant purple colour and looks really pretty, when using it in the bath the water goes a beautiful deep pink colour. The bath bomb contains shea butter so when using this the water feels so lovely and smooth and makes your skin feel so silky soft and really moisturised too.
My final product is a candle from Yorkshire rose candles. This is a Christmas Eve candle, the perfect item for a December box. This smells of lots of festive treats and is a lovely sweet smell that isn't overwhelming. The scents that make up this candle are apple, cinnamon, vanilla, nutmeg and sweet pastry. The smell reminded me of an apple crumble or pie smell, with the twist of the vanilla that came through for me. We burned this a few times and of course on Christmas Eve and it's lovely, it's also very beautifully designed with a patch of holly patterned fabric.

Overall this is another great box, for anyone that isn't so much into beauty or would like to try something different this one is definitely one to try. It's £19.95 per box, received at the end of the month (dispatched around the 22nd and billed the first). Anyone wanting to sign up can do so via the link, they also have a Facebook and Instagram aswell as other social media so you can follow them with some hints at the boxes.
