No. By burning something you are breaking it down and forming new products (smoke, carbon dioxide, etc), and these are different from the original compound. In contrast, when you melt something, some of it is actually vaporized at the same time, and that is what you are smelling. So when you melt it, you smell the molecules of the original compound, whereas when you burn it, you are smelling the compounds that were formed during the burning process. That said, when burning something, you will probably also smell some of the original compound, because usually when something is burning, some of it is also vaporized and not all of it is burned.

What ideas do you have to maximise sales of beauty and fragrance products in a Superdrug Store?

The answer is Advertising. You need to display your products in a way that will catch a customer's eye, something bright and beautiful, not bland and something that will fade into the walls. If I saw a beauty/fragrance product with a delightful display or packaging, I would definitely take a look. And, chances are, the more people you get looking the more you'll get buying.
