<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nAll About Capri Blue Candles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
It helps to learn more about the company behind the products we purchase. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Capri Blue is a home and personal care brand founded over 20 years ago. It was formerly called Aspen Bay Candles, a brand you might have come across in Anthropologie stores. In 2001, Tom Reed purchased the company, renaming it. To this day, Capri Blue is considered a fashionably trendy candle. <\/strong>This is due to Reed\u2019s rebranding efforts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Capri Blue switched hands again in 2016. Merged with Thymes<\/a> and Aspen Bay Candles, the three companies now form Curio. Aspen Bay and Capri Blue already had the same parent company, DPM Fragrance. Under Curio<\/a>, Aspen Bay was dissolved into Capri Blue and Thymes maintained its previous branding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Volcano remains Capri Blue\u2019s iconic fragrance, and they continue to research fashion trends when blending new fragrances. <\/strong>It\u2019s no wonder that you can also find these candles in fashion-forward department stores like Nordstrom as well as specialty retail shops. The company also lists their products on online marketplaces, like Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This company makes three main groups of products: home care, home fragrance, and beauty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Home fragrance products include candles, diffusers, room sprays<\/a>, and the PURA smart home fragrance system.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Under their Beauty category,<\/strong> you\u2019ll find lotions, perfumes, soaps, bath bombs, and body washes. Personal care products include lip balm, hand sanitizer, and dry body oil. Beauty products are available in four scents: Volcano, Blue Jean, Aloha Orchid, and Watery Moon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Home Care line<\/strong> includes products for laundry and surfaces, as well as dish soap. This entire line is solely available in Capri Blue\u2019s Volcano fragrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This company uses high quality, non-toxic ingredients that are not tested on animals. You also won\u2019t find synthetic dyes added to their candle wax. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s more information about ingredients used for their candle line:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Capri Blue candles are made with soy wax blend. They state that their candle wax is primarily soy and there\u2019s a small amount of food-grade paraffin wax added in<\/strong>. As I\u2019ve mentioned previously soy wax<\/a> is difficult to work with. It leaves bumps and craters on the surface, it doesn\u2019t hold as much fragrance and paraffin, and burn time can vary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This company decided to blend the two waxes in order to produce a stronger fragrance throw, produce a smooth, silky top surface, and extend burn time.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Lead-free braided cotton wicks are used in every Capri Blue candle. The exact size and wick composition varies because fragrances burn differently. <\/strong>Container size also determines which wick to use for a specific candle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019m not sure if they have hundreds on hand like Yankee Candle<\/a> but it\u2019s encouraging to know that they take these factors into consideration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If a wick is too large, it can cause flames to rise too high because the candle will burn too quickly. But if a wick is too small, it\u2019s possible that the wax won\u2019t fully pool. So it\u2019s a good sign to know that Capri Blue appropriately selects a wick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As with many companies Capri Blue uses a fragrance blend<\/a> consisting of natural, essential, and synthetic oils. Since essential oils are completely natural, they can sometimes vary in scent from batch to batch.<\/strong> For instance lavender essential oils might not smell the same if they are grown in different temperatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Adding in synthetic oils helps the company to make more consistent fragrances. This way, popular scents like Volcano smell the same whenever it\u2019s purchased. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Capri Blue fragrances are divided into five scent categories: bohemian, floral, forest, fresh, and spice. <\/strong>There are a number of interesting scent combinations within each category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some of these fragrances are intriguing. Coconut Santal, for instance, blends flowering hibiscus, lime, coconut, and amber. That\u2019s not a scent combination that you come in contact with frequently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now let\u2019s focus on what we really came here for, candles! Capri Blue home fragrance collections are more vessel-focused than fragrance-focused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are ten vessel collections:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Dual Tone<\/strong> – This set includes two-toned geometric color blocks available in three colorways. Bubblegum pink is combined with coral, orange, and a dark peony pink. Topped with gold lids, these containers are bright, bold decor additions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gallery<\/strong> – These jars are shaped like the Signature collection but covered in colorful Memphis style patterns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gilded Muse<\/strong> – Some of these containers are made of tin with a metallic pattern print.Others have three-dimensional, multi-faceted shapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Glam<\/strong> – Sparkly containers that look like they\u2019re covered in really fine glitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Glimmer<\/strong> – Solid and ombre containers that appear to have been splattered with gold paint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Glitz<\/strong> – Combination of metallic and glitter effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mercury<\/strong> – The metallic look combined with paint splatter effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Muse<\/strong> – Glass jars and lids with three-dimensional patterns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Signature<\/strong> – Their Signature line includes the cobalt blue containers you\u2019ve come to know and love. Signature container colors also include black, aqua, and bubblegum. Most of them are solid colors, but a white pattern overlays some of the solid-colored glass and tin containers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Watercolor<\/strong> – Signature jars wrapped in watercolor designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Not every fragrance is offered for each vessel. Below I\u2019ll share ones that I\u2019ve come to like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When purchasing Capri Blue candles, you have to pay really close attention to the labels. Containers look alike even when there\u2019s a different fragrance inside. The scent isn\u2019t always obvious because labeling is small, but it\u2019s there, so be sure to read it so that you pick the right scent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s start out with Capri Blue\u2019s Signature collection and fragrance. You may be used to the cobalt blue container, but I thought I\u2019d show you the white one in case you haven\u2019t seen it before. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The signature collection is available in four sizes:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n All but the jumbo jar are available in seven fragrances. This particular vessel is 19 oz, 4 inches tall and 5 inches in diameter. Burn time is up to 85 hours. <\/strong>Volcano is a tropical blend of sweet and citrus fruits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n == Check Price on Amazon ==<\/a><\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n This glitzy container looks as though it\u2019s been dusted with glitter ombre. The glitter is denser on top and then fades into the saturated orange container base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Think of a pumpkin pie filling in a gingersnap crust with luscious vanilla whipped cream on top. That\u2019s how this Pumpkin Dolce candle smells.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s 8 oz (227g), 4 inches tall and 3.5 inches in diameter. This candle burns for up to 40 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n == Check Price on Amazon ==<\/a><\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n Although this is one of the signature candles, I wanted to talk about it separately because it is gift-ready. It\u2019s also a different vessel shape than most of the candles in the Signature collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This 8 oz (227g) candle burns up to 35 hours; it\u2019s 3.5 inches tall.<\/strong> Whether it\u2019s a stocking stuffer, birthday or congratulatory gift, it\u2019s the perfect size and fragrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Aloha Orchid is a fragrant bouquet of gardenias, orchids, and jasmine flowers. It\u2019s an uplifting and delightful floral scent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n == Check Price on Amazon ==<\/a><\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n Part of the Gilded Collection, I thought this to be a subtle but exquisite vessel. Although it\u2019s iridescent white opal, the faceted shapes add volume to this container. It\u2019s like adding an art sculpture to your home.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Also in the energetically sweet Volcano fragrance, this 11 oz (312 g) candle burns up to 44 hours. It\u2019s height and diameter are the same, 4.25 inches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n == Check Price on Amazon ==<\/a><\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n This is one of Capri Blue\u2019s bestsellers. Rose gold tin with white graphic pattern overlay makes for a casual, yet mature decor element.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pink Grapefruit & Prosecco is a light and fruity fragrance.<\/strong> But you don\u2019t have to wait until New Year\u2019s to burn this candle. It would add a sweet and airy scent to your home year-round. There are also hints of mimosa flower and violet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Specifics: 12.5 oz (354 g), 65 hour burn time, 3.5 inches high, 3.75 inches in diameter<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n == Check Price on Amazon ==<\/a><\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n What I like most about the Mercury Collection is its less common vessel shapes. This one is a tall pillar candle, but in a 17 oz (482 oz) hexagon-shaped container. At 6.25 inches high and 3.5 inches in diameter, the candle will burn for up to 77 hours.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Mercury Collection is available in a small 4 oz (113 g) jewel box candle<\/a>. There\u2019s also an 8 oz jar and 15 oz candle bowl<\/a>. Its found glass design looks like gold confetti scattered throughout the vessel.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This taller hexagon vessel is only available in four fragrances, Volcano, Aloha Orchid, Havana Vanilla, and Blue Jean. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Blue Jean has a complex fresh linen fragrance. <\/strong>You\u2019ll notice hints of patchouli and citrus as well. Just remember to get a longer lighter<\/a> for this candle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n == Check Price on Amazon ==<\/a><\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want both punchy color and fragrance, you might like this Dual Tone candle in Pineapple Flower fragrance. It\u2019s a sweet and tangy combination of juicy pineapple, plum, and lemon flower.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This signature-shaped container has a nice, stable base and its gold lid adds an extra layer of glam. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A fairly large candle at 19oz (539 g), it\u2019ll burn up to 80 hours. It\u2019s 4 inches tall and 5 inches in diameter. <\/p>\n\n\n\nCapri Blue Products<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
