the second half of my main street melts order.

Back in November, several fragrance oils from Main Street Melts were featured on the creation of beauty is art. (As a reminder, these are theme park inspired scents. I fell in love with the brand shortly after visiting Walt Disney World last year. In a post-Walt Disney World blues state of mind, my sad scrolling led me to an Etsy shop that sold scents inspired by some of my favourite rides, restaurants, and theme park treats. The first post about Main Street Melts Candle Co. can be seen here.) In that last post, there were all sorts of fragrance oils featured...and some that were intended to be reviewed in a part two. It is finally time for part two of that previous Main Street Melts haul. Here are some more theme park scent reviews.

In part two of this Main Street Melts Candle Co. haul, there are six fragrance oils that will be reviewed. With a robust collection of scented oils to choose from at this point, my hope is that I will be stocked for the foreseeable future. Now for the reviews...

  • Main Street Bakery. There is something special about walking down Main Street and looking at all of the stores. There are all of these different scents that make the walk feel extra special, including items from the different bake shops. Main Street Bakery captures that feeling perfectly, with a scent that is described as sweet bakery dough and vanilla cream. The scent is warm and comforting. Since I love vanilla scents (and baked goods) this has been a heavily used oil. I love adding a few drops to my essential oil diffuser and imagining a walk down Main Street. 
  • Goin' Down The Bayou. Though there are many Disney Princesses that I love, Tiana from The Princess and the Frog has a special place in my heart. This particular scent is described as having "the decadent scent of freshly baked beignets, featuring warm buttery notes, powdered sugar, and Tiana's favorite blend of spices." Unfortunately, this is not a favourite. It has a sharp scent to it that I am not quite sure how to describe. I do like the warmth, but this is a fragrance oil that I tend to use a light hand with. Based on the description, this is not quite what I anticipated.
  • Frontierland. Thank goodness for the Frontierland oil. I am head over heels in love with this scent. The description for this scent mentions roasted pecans, maple sugar and caramel, warm cinnamon spice, and creamy vanilla. It is sweet, warm, and makes me think about wandering Frontierland with a snack before heading over to the Country Bear Musical Jamboree. This is one of the scents that manages to mentally transport me to the Magic Kingdom. 
  • Mickey Waffles. No Walt Disney World vacation would be complete without some Mickey Mouse shaped waffles for breakfast. (This is usually something that I have on the first and last day of the vacation. These Mickey waffles are delicious and adorable.) The idea of a fragrance oil that would remind me of those vacation mornings was a little too tempting to resist. This scent is described as "warm buttery waffles drizzled in maple syrup." There is a lot of that coming through, but similar to the Goin' Down The Bayou scent, there is a sharp kind of scent in there as well that I cannot quite place my finger on. Though the breakfast is a favourite, this oil is sadly not a standout.
  • Living With The Land. One of my favourite rides in all of Walt Disney World is Living With The Land, which is a boat ride in Epcot that goes through different greenhouses and talks about the importance of agriculture. I find it all so fascinating. There are also so many great smells on the ride! This oil is described as "a soothing union of fresh basil, sage, and mint." I wasn't quite sure whether this scent would be one that I liked, but luckily, it is another winner. The scent is fresh, bright, uplifting, and makes me feel like I am floating through the Disney greenhouses. 
  • Popcorn Cart. It just isn't a Disney vacation without a little popcorn. All over the parks, there are popcorn carts placed in the most tempting locations. There are always super cute popcorn buckets to take home as well, but the cost usually prevents me from indulging that much. As for the Popcorn Cart fragrance oil? This is described as a warm buttery scent. Since I tend to love warm scents (and food inspired scents) this was a must. It is spot on and mimics the Walt Disney World experience. That warm buttery popcorn smell is absolutely incredible.
Once again, my experience with Main Street Melts Candle Co. has been positive. Though not every single fragrance oil is a favourite, the large majority have been wonderful. Many of them transport me back to iconic Walt Disney World rides, themed areas, and even sweet treats. Since it is unlikely that I will be able to visit a Disney theme park in the United States for the next several years, these scented oils are especially meaningful. These themed scents have brought a bit of the experience home.
