I have an electric YC wax warmer and use it with YC Easy Melt cups and I save the cups to use YC single wax melts too.  i like both the cups and melts but the scent is not very long lasting, cups about 24 hours and melts about 8 hours.

 

is there any single wax melts that have a longer lasting scent?  I love the scent of balsam fir and tend to burn it all year round.

To me, 24 hours of scent from a wax melt is pretty good.

@KingstonMom Wal-Mart has Home & Gardens brand of wax melts and are very reasonable.  I've tried them, but don't remember how long they'll burn, but the scent does last.

Swan Creek Candles and 1803 Candles are FANTASTIC!!  I purchase mine at a local shop but they are also available online.  Great scent descriptions online, too!  I have purchased them for years and these are the only two brands I buy.

 

Edited to add:  I've purchased Yankee Candle melts in the past and there is no comparison to the two brands I mentioned above.  They are 100% soy wax and the scent lasts a very, very long time.

Is YC Yankee Candle?  If so, I have been very disappointed with their wax melts.  I find they have very little scent and if they do they do not last very long.

 

I have been buying the Better Homes and Gardens wax melts at Walmart.  I have found several very nice scents and they last for about 8 to 10 hours for me.  There is another brand they sell, ScentSationals.  They have a few scents I like too.  They are about $2.00 for six melts.

Thank you for your recommendation of ScentSationals.

 

The price is so reasonable I am going to give them a try.

 

BHG and the ones Aldi's carries have been very hit or miss for me.

I have had pretty good luck with both brands in the scents I have tried.  Every once in a while I pick a scent that does not work though.  I do not know why they sometimes vary.🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
