Lighting candles is a lovely way to add scent to your home, but it’s not always practical to have candles burning, especially if you have small children or inquisitive pets. If that’s the case for you, meet the Cello electric melt burner.
This beautifully designed melt burner allows you to use fragranced wax melts or tarts in a much safer way. Instead of using lit candles, all you need to do is plug in the burner, place a wax melt in the top, turn on the switch, and voila, your scented wax will slowly start to melt and release its fragrance.
What’s more, as the burner works by using a light bulb, you get the bonus of having a decorative light too. With the design of this one, the light shines through the attractive antique bronze geometric design. It’s a lovely design and the metallic bronze / copper colour is on trend.
You can have the Cello electric melt burner in use for up to three hours at a time. If you want to change the melt fragrance before it’s run out completely, simply turn it off and leave it to cool, then gently scrape out the hardened wax.
The Village Candle wax melts are ideal for using with the Cello electric melt burner. They come in a wide range of scents and are scored into six sections per pack. You can add as little or as many of the individual blocks to your burner, depending on how strong a scent you’d like. We really like this ability to choose the amount you want to use, as it gives more flexibility in getting the level of fragrance you’re happy with.
We tried the Summer Breeze scent, which apparently “captures the fragrance of summer blooms carried out to sea on a swift summer breeze.” It’s a fresh, clean scent that’s very likeable and not too intense.
Another melt we rather liked is the Eucalyptus Mint which, as the name suggests, is a combination of spearmint and mint fragrances. This is a good fragrance to clear your head and is appropriate to have on if you’re using the burner in an office or working environment.
The melt burner is good quality, well made and looks more expensive than it actually is. It’s a lovely piece to use in your home or office when you can’t have naked flames burning, and is an ideal gift idea for anyone who loves home fragrance.
The Cello electric melt burner in gallery bronze is currently available on special offer for just £25.49. Likewise, the Village Candle wax melts are available at the special offer price of just £4.67 per pack.

This is a fab idea, I do worry about the kids being near my candles!
Great idea, I’ve got a dog and sometimes worry if he knocked a candle over xx
That is awesome! I love finding ways to scent my home, it’s just something I’ve always loved =)
I only use diffusers for scents in my home with essential oils. The look of this burner definitely is pretty, though.
This looks interesting. I love a scented home but as you say candles are not practical all the time. I’d be interested in the perfumes. I’m not a big lover of artificial scents – I’m more drawn to subtle florals. x
Love this! Going to investigate!
I really love the look of this! I haven’t seen a melt burner or wax burner that looks so stylish… I’m constantly burning candles but it can get quite expensive whereas I love that you can just switch things like this on and off for small periods of time to scent the room.
that burner is so pretty! i remember my mom always had one or 2 of these in the house with all kinds of different scents. always handy to have and definitely safer too.
I need to show my sister these, she’s having a mental breakdown about my niece near candles right now. The terrible twos have struck!
This looks like a great alternative to candles. And I really like the fact that you can choose how strong to make the scent.
