Juicy pink grapefruit with tart cassis and a soft blush of rose, in textured glass. Bright and well liked, though one buyer found the 3-wick tin oddly quiet.
A bright grapefruit with a little more going on than most: Voluspa sets ripe citron grapefruit against tart cassis and a subtle rose, and its fragrance story throws in starfruit and wild rose bushes for good measure. The people who buy it straight from the brand seem happy, with the Classic averaging 4.7 stars across thousands of ratings on Voluspa's site, and Nordstrom's reviewers are warmer still. A Reddit shopper who sniffed a row of Voluspas at Bloomingdale's counted Citron among the promising ones.
The one detailed complaint is about throw. A buyer of the 3-wick tin was taken aback by how little it gave off once lit, unusual in their experience of the brand. Anyone wary can try the $18 Petite Jar before committing to the $38 Classic. And when Reddit's candle crowd wants a grapefruit loud enough for a big room, the name that comes up is Nest's.
Voluspa says the 5-Wick Hearth burns up to 250 hours. Size by size: Mini Tin, 25 h; Petite Jar, 35 h; Classic, 60 h; 3-Wick Tin, 40 h; Large Jar, 100 h; Luxe, 80 h; 5-Wick Hearth, 250 h.
