Hopie Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 This scent seems to be everywhere, what does it smell like? How good are the sales on stuff scented in this? I'm going to make more oil purchases to test, and I think I'd like to add this to my list for incense and candles. What company has the best Volcano scent that you have tried? Thanks a bunch, in advance for any input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldieMN Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 To me it smells like a sharp orange fragrance (Capri Blue Volcano type if that is what you are referring to). GoldieMN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopie Posted April 24, 2018 Author Share Posted April 24, 2018 I saw these at a local gift shop we visited here in Havasu, and they had the candles priced at $35! Same brand, Capri. A bit spendy for a jar candle, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam W Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I'm confused........what is a volcano supposed to smell like? I can't see that a volcano scent would include any orange scent......but then I've been drinking tonite so maybe I'm outta the loop :-). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The store we visited had a lot of candle selections, from soy to the fake flamed ones. We were goofing off that afternoon so we thought we'd drop in and check out their offerings, and possibly pay a later visit to see if the owner might want to buy some of my candles at a later date. She wasn't exactly "friendly", so I did not approach her with the idea. Maybe I will, maybe I won't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runner14jc Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Personally not my favorite fragrance (the Capri Volcano that is), but it is pretty popular. The closest I've tried is the Fruit Slices fragrance from candlescience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Yeah I don't get it.. it smells nice but I don't see why its so popular. It's just very so so to me. I pitched my sample in my ever growing discard pile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfroberts Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 It's a nice citrus for soap making, and it sells well. But it's just that...citrus. For candles, etc., it doesn't blow my hair back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faerywren Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 It's a super sweet fruity fragrance to me. It's nice, but I don't get the popularity, either. i have the one from AH/RE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katmeltswax Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Aztec has the best Volcano Capri Blue imo.This scent is very similar to Fruit Slices as runner mentioned .I had to rename to get this scent to move at all.I have called it Citrus Fiesta at times & change it to Citrus Explosion .I find that most scents will sell better if the name is inviting kwim. The original name does not fit the scent at all imo.It is a good scent for citrus lovers .I know Aztec has reformulated this scent .I have not tried it since I still have a half pound in stock .I am thinking the reformulated version is just fine thou. Aztec has some wonderful oils . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopie Posted April 27, 2018 Author Share Posted April 27, 2018 I have Fruit Slices from Lone Star. I'm thinking it may be too sweet for an incense. Better to use that in a candle and see what happens. Most of my incense customers go for standard scents that they are accustomed to.

jbradshaw Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Seconding the love for Aztec's Volcano, in fact I'm about to order more (and hope I can trust Aztec with the reformulation). I've also had folks tell me CS's Grapefruit and Mangosteen smells like a sweeter version of the Capri Blue candle and that sells well for me. I personally love it, and at markets it's a scent that is immediately recognized - it's a top seller. I rename it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
