Myrrh & Tonka Botanical Wax Melts

If you want your home to smell expensive, warm, and inviting, 'Myrrh & Tonka' is the ultimate choice. It is a rich, oriental fragrance that feels like wrapping yourself in a soft cashmere blanket. It opens with the aromatic freshness of lavender, before melting into a heart of warm, resinous Myrrh and finishing with a sweet, creamy base of Tonka Bean and Vanilla.

These are Botanical Wax Melts, hand-poured in our Norfolk studio. Each melt is beautifully finished with a scattering of dried botanicals that float in the wax pool, turning your burner into a piece of visual art. It is the perfect scent for dark evenings, dinner parties, or when you simply want to feel indulged.

🏺 The Scent Journey

This fragrance is famous for its addictive, creamy warmth:

  • 💜 Top Notes: Lavender, Cinnamon, and Florals. The first impression: a touch of aromatic freshness to lift the heavy base.
  • 🏺 Mid Notes: Myrrh, Cypriol, and Heliotrope. The heart: deep, resinous, and slightly smoky.
  • 🍦 Base Notes: Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Amber, and Guaiac Wood. The lingering trail: sweet, nutty, almond-like, and incredibly long-lasting.
🌱 The Bishy Barnabee Difference

We believe luxury home fragrance shouldn't come with a plastic footprint:

Natural Wax: We use a sustainable plant-based wax blend (Soy/Rapeseed) which burns cleaner and longer than traditional paraffin.

Botanical Style: Each melt is hand-decorated with dried botanicals, ensuring every melt pool is as beautiful to look at as it is to smell.

Plastic Free: No plastic clamshells here! Our melts come in recyclable, eco-friendly packaging—perfect for sustainable hampers and gifts.

🔥 Usage Guide: How to Melt

The Tea Light: Use a standard 4-hour unscented tea light. Avoid 8-hour maxi tea lights; they generate too much heat, which burns off the fragrance oil too quickly.

Changing the Wax: Once the scent has faded, let the wax cool and harden. To remove, place the burner dish in the fridge for 10 minutes; the wax should pop out easily, ready for your next fragrance.

Safety: Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep away from pets, children, and draughts. These melts are not edible.

🤝 Beautiful Scent Companions

Pair this opulent scent with other rich, complex fragrances for a curated home atmosphere:

  • 🌹 Velvet Rose & Oud: The Romantic Match. If you love the intensity of Myrrh & Tonka, you will adore the dark, smoky floral notes of Velvet Rose. They both share a high-end "boutique hotel" quality.
  • 🍯 Dark Honey & Tobacco: The Sweet & Smoky Match. The honey notes in this scent complement the vanilla/tonka base of the Myrrh, creating a very warm, comforting home environment.

✨ Why We Love This Scent
It is the ultimate "expensive" home fragrance. We love burning this in the living room for a cosy night in or a dinner party. It’s warm, creamy, and sophisticated without being overpowering—the perfect scent for making your space feel like a five-star retreat.
