Wax Melts can be used in scent burners, which use a tea light at the bottom to heat the wax melt, which is placed in the bowl at the top. The heat from the flame melts the wax melt, releasing the scent. Keep in mind that a wax melt in a scent burner will not last as long (because of the heat of the flame) as a wax melt in an electric wax melt lamp (which uses the heat of a lamp to melt the wax).
