# Ashtray-Candle Hybrids The Flussocreativo Vizio's Burning Wick Masks Smoker Smells By Meghan Young | Published 2011-05-26 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flussocreativo-vizio References: [core77](http://www.core77.com/blog/object_culture/vizio_hybrid_candle_ashtray_not_to_be_confused_with_the_lcd_tv_company_19433.asp) & [flussocreativo.it](http://www.flussocreativo.it/) As much as I detest all things related to smoking, I have to say that the Flussocreativo Vizio hybrid has something going for it. Not only does it help mask the smell of smoke thanks to its [burning wick and pool of wax](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infra-luna-20), but it also has a relatively nice look. Of course, the Flussocreativo Vizio would look better without all of the [ash and buds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flower-vase-bong) in it. Simple, discreet and unique, the Flussocreativo Vizio hybrid is very innovative. What I like most about this creation is the fact that [designers Flussocreativo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-incense-burner) acknowledges that though "it is better not to smoke...[for] those who want the pleasure of a cigarette, especially together [in a moment of reflection], VIZIO will be a useful accessory." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 51% | Activity: 74% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Smoking Accessories:** Opportunity for innovation in designing new and unique smoking accessories that offer a more seamless smoking experience. - **Dual-function Products:** Opportunity for innovation in creating products that serve dual purposes and offer new or unique solutions to everyday problems. - **Scent-masking Products:** Opportunity for innovation in developing new and improved products that effectively mask unwanted scents in various environments. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Home Decor:** Opportunity for home decor companies to create unique and functional decor items that serve more than one purpose. - **Tobacco:** Opportunity for tobacco companies to innovate and offer unique accessories that enhance the smoking experience. - **Personal Care:** Opportunity for personal care companies to create products that effectively mask unwanted scents, such as smoke, in various environments. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [High-End Ashtray Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ash-blackwood-ashtray.md) - [Storage-Equipped Concrete Ashtrays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vessel-ash.md) - [Sculptural Incense Burners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nuvolino.md) - [Retro-Modern Ashtray Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/houseplant-side-table-ashtray.md) - [Cigarette-Style Incense Sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/incense-stick.md) - [Dual-Purpose Vintage-Inspired Home Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintageinspired-home-object.md) - [Smart Incense Burners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/recov.md) - [Sleek Metallic Incense Holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-incense-holder.md) - [Smoky Illumination Floor Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunset-lamp.md)
