Summer Scents Are Here: Discover the 2025 Hellomelts Summer Collection Wax Melts
Update: This post was revised in July 2025 following our switch to clamshell packaging.
There’s something about summer that makes everything feel a little lighter. The air softens. The evenings stretch out. And suddenly, all we want is to slow down, open the windows, and fill our homes with that fresh, sunny feeling.
At Hellomelts, we’ve captured that mood and turned it into something you can enjoy every day with the brand new 2025 Summer Collection Wax Melts.
This seasonal release features eight hand-poured wax melt scents, each inspired by the best parts of summer. From tropical fruits and juicy cocktails to fresh sea air and sun-drenched gardens, these scents are made to refresh your space and lift your mood.
Each fragrance was originally released in two sizes: our full-sized 50g wax melt bar and a smaller 30g mini bar. Both formats were letterbox-friendly and crafted in small batches using our signature high-scent formula. Whether you're trying something new or stocking up on favourites, these seasonal scents are designed to suit every type of scent lover.
If you love fruity blends, coastal freshness, or sweet summery treats, you're in the right place. This collection brings sunshine into every corner of your home.
Let’s take a closer look at what’s just landed this summer.
1. The Inspiration Behind the Collection
The idea for this collection started with a single question: what does summer feel like? Not just the temperature or the sunshine, but the mood of it. That carefree sense of escape. The buzz of a cocktail evening. The first breath of sea air after a long spring. We wanted to capture all of that in scent.
Each wax melt in the Hellomelts Summer Wax Melt Collection was created to reflect a different side of the season. From refreshing blends like Mint Mojito and Melon and Cucumber to juicy, sun-ripened fruits like Raspberry Daiquiri and Cherry Cocktail, each wax melt is bold and uplifting — crafted to instantly shift the mood in a room.
The colours played a huge role too. We didn’t want pastels or anything washed out. Summer should feel vibrant and full of life. So we matched every scent with a rich, saturated colour label that reflects the fragrance inside - from deep berry tones to citrus brights and tropical greens.
Together, the scents and visuals work hand in hand to bring that summer feeling home. It’s a collection made to spark joy, brighten your space, and remind you of everything that makes this season worth celebrating.
2. Meet the Scents: Discover Our 2025 Summer Wax Melt Collection
Each scent in the Hellomelts Summer Collection was carefully chosen to reflect a different side of the season. Some are fresh and zesty. Others are sweet and indulgent. A few will whisk you straight to the beach, while others will feel like sipping cocktails in the garden as the sun goes down. They’ve all been designed to create an atmosphere that transforms your space, shifts your mood, and brings a little summer joy into the everyday.
Here’s a closer look at what each fragrance has to offer.
Passionfruit & Mango
If summer had a signature scent, this would be it. Bursting with juicy passionfruit, sun-ripened mango, and a squeeze of orange, this one hits you with vibrant, mouth-watering sweetness from the very first melt. It’s softened by creamy coconut and vanilla underneath, giving it that laid-back, tropical finish. Passionfruit and Mango is perfect for sunny afternoons, holiday daydreams, or when you want to escape to warmer places, no plane ticket required.
Zesty Orange
Bright, bold, and beautifully sharp. Zesty Orange is the wax melt equivalent of opening your windows and letting the morning in. It opens with a punch of fresh orange, lifted by grapefruit, lemon, and lime to create a sharp citrus burst that cuts through stuffy air and tired moods. Ideal for energising your mornings, freshening up busy spaces, or pairing with a cleaning day soundtrack and getting things done.
Raspberry Daiquiri
Sweet, tart, and just a little bit fizzy. Raspberry Daiquiri captures the fun side of summer with its fruity cocktail vibe and playful edge. The raspberry is vivid and slightly tangy, softened by hints of sugar and a gentle freshness that keeps it from ever becoming too heavy. This one is made for garden parties, weekend drinks, and rooms where laughter tends to linger.
Coconut & Sea Salt
Pure coastal calm. This scent blends creamy coconut with the crisp mineral freshness of sea salt to create something that feels clean and smooth, but with a warm, sun-drenched base. It’s the kind of scent you’d expect to find in a spa overlooking the ocean. Use Coconut and Sea Salt to unwind after long days, during a bath, or when you want your home to feel like a quiet seaside retreat.
Mint Mojito
Cool mint leaves, freshly sliced lime, a crushed ice sparkle - this scent is summer in a glass. Mint Mojito is as refreshing as it sounds, with just the right balance of zing and chill. It brightens the air in seconds, making it ideal for kitchen spaces, summer gatherings, or when you're feeling sluggish and need something to wake up the room.
Melon & Cucumber
Clean, cool, and subtly sweet. Melon and Cucumber is a clean, watery blend that leans more fresh than fruity. The melon brings a gentle sweetness, while the cucumber keeps things crisp and understated. This is the scent you’ll want when you need calm and clarity - perfect for working from home, early mornings, or winding down without overpowering your space.
Blueberry & Vanilla
Cosy with a twist. Blueberry and Vanilla combines the brightness of ripe berries with the softness of warm vanilla to create something comforting, but not overly sweet. It has a creamy base that makes it feel like home, with a burst of fruity freshness to keep things light. Think of it as the scent for slow weekends, quiet evenings, or a little pick-me-up on grey days.
Cherry Cocktail
Lush, deep, and deliciously bold. Cherry Cocktail is full-bodied and confident, with notes of rich cherry and syrupy sweetness that feel indulgent without being too heavy. It brings a warm, almost sultry energy to the room - perfect for late-night vibes, dinner parties, or whenever you want something that makes a statement.
From light and refreshing to rich and indulgent, these scents were created to reflect the many moods of summer. Whether you love fruity, zesty, or beachy wax melts, the 2025 Summer Collection has something to suit every room, every mood, and every moment of the season.
Now that you’ve met the scents, let’s take a closer look at the formats available and how to choose the right size for your space.
3. Wax Melt Sizes and Packaging Update
When we first launched the Summer Collection, each scent was available in two bar sizes — a full-sized 50g bar and a smaller 30g bar — both packaged in eco-friendly glassine bags. The aim was to offer a lightweight, plastic-free alternative that still looked great and kept the bars protected.
But soon after launch, we noticed a problem: some of the wax melts began to seep natural fragrance oils into the packaging, causing visible staining and a slightly greasy feel. While the melts were still completely safe to use, the look and feel didn’t meet our standards — especially for a collection that’s all about colour, presentation, and quality.
So, just a few weeks after release, we made the decision to switch back to clamshell packaging — a format we've always used for our Signature and Winter Collections, and one that has never let us down.
The new clamshells are made from 86% recycled PET (rPET), manufactured in the UK, and fully recyclable. They’re sturdy, clean, and protective — ensuring that each bar arrives exactly as it should, no matter the scent or the season.
As we transition, the Summer Collection is being re-released in clamshell format, with two sizes available: a larger 85g 6-cube bar and a smaller 60g 4-cube bar. These offer the same bold scent throw and hand-poured quality as before, but in a fresh new format that works better for the product and for you.
4. Final Thoughts
The 2025 Hellomelts Summer Collection isn’t just about new scents. It’s about capturing a feeling. From the first spark of inspiration to the final pour, each wax melt was made with care — using our signature high-scent formula and now packaged in sleek, eco-conscious clamshells that look good and perform even better.
Whether you're drawn to crisp citrus, cooling coastal blends, or sweet tropical favourites, there's something here to brighten your home and set the tone for the season ahead. Each scent was designed to do more than just smell good. These bars help set the tone in your home, encourage calm, lift energy, and turn everyday spaces into something a little more special.
You can now explore the full Summer Collection in two clamshell sizes — our larger 6-cube format and a smaller 4-cube option. Each one is easy to use, beautifully scented, and created to help you enjoy the best parts of summer in scent form. Stock is limited for this seasonal launch, so if something catches your eye, it’s best not to wait.
If you're looking for something a little different, Lime, Basil and Mandarin from our Spring Collection is also a beautiful choice for this time of year. Available as a candle, it's a crisp blend of citrus and herbs that works perfectly in kitchens, hallways, or any space that needs a fresh, uplifting boost through the warmer months.
Thank you for being here and supporting handmade. We hope this summer’s scents bring as much joy to your home as they did to create.
